You get what you pay for? Having said that, the quality for the price seemed fine though I stayed in a private with a private in-room bathroom, just for 1 night for a late evening arrival. The location was very near to the main Oslo station which was the main reason for staying here. It's very basic but by Oslo... More

Central in Oslo but a little shabby area and the building was relatively wear-down. The room was clean and ok, equipped with wifi and tv. The bathroom could need a little shine as it was as old as the building. All in all it was ok for one night, no bed bugs or noise in night. And you cannot expect... More

We arrived by train and the hotel is located near the train station. the room picture on the web-site may misleading. Because we find the room is smaller. but the bathroom is fine. Only accept credit card, no cash. No reception in the morning and after 11:00 pm. Anyway, it is fine to stay 1 or 2 nights. Because it... More

I felt like going "budget" for once, and Oslo is definitely the place to do so. Everything is ridiculously expensive, so trying out cheaper ways of living may make a difference. We stayed 1 night at this place. Staff was helpful but don't get pulled off if you get greeted by a guy in jeans and his feet up the... More

Hot water supply is inconsistent, we are forced to bathe freezing cold water. Beds are too low, a petite person cannot even sit up straight. Radiators are down all the time, corridors are dim.

He reservado dos noches en este hotel para el mes de julio. El hotel no tenía muy buenas referencias, pero era uno de los más baratos y muchos otros en el mismo rango de precios ya estaban completos. Finalmente no pudimos ir y no tuvimos tiempo de cancelar la reserva. En fin, sabíamos que perderíamos (tontamente) el importe de la... More

Stayed here for one night in a single room with a private bathroom. A longer stay would be quite oppressive for a single traveler, I imagine. Pros: Good location. Relatively low priced. Great cancellation policy. Cons: Better be here when its not too warm or be prepared to deal with a lot of street noise. The shower had no enclosure... More

My family and I stayed here for only one night. It was an easy walk from the train station and another easy walk to downtown shopping and restaurants. But this hotel is a hostel at best. We had a small room for all of us with a bathroom which stunk as if mold had been growing there for years. Linen... More

This hotel is a hostel at best. The rooms are small but clean. Linen is provided but you make your own bed and you do have private facilities. One big problem is that you can not check in until 3.00pm, not good, and you can not get access to the so called hotel until this time. The good thing about... More
