Great location, walking distance to many attractions, but loud at night on the weekends . The basics rooms are so small you have no room to expand your language. The upgrade rooms are a good size. Basic continental breakfast, decent coffee and great customer service . The employees are friendly and helpful house keeping and front desk

Lack of cleaning
They clean room 1 or 4 days. And the cleaner comes afternoon when you are actually at your hotel !

Central, compact no amenities
This is a great hotel located centrally and cheap in comparison to other hotels in Oslo.
We booked a compact room but when you look at photos it appears to be signage over the bed and a more room. We stayed in a room with a wood beam over the bed on one side so I actually couldn’t sit up in bed and had to crouch down to get in to bed. There is also no amenities - no fridge, kettle, nothing.
Housekeeping only attend on request.
It’s a cheaper hotel in Oslo, staff are lovely and centrally located but for a little bit extra you can get a lot more comfort.

Ideal location. Solid hotel. Some awkwardness.
Friendly staff and excellent breakfast. Stayed three different days during our trip. Mostly for familiarity and ideal location. Only issue was last day. Signs everywhere say check out is at noon. However, at 11, your key card is turned off. Almost lost our stuff! Also, one of the staff walked in on us changing to “change a battery” and did not want to leave even though we said she could not come in. Made for a very awkward moment.

VERY POOR SHOW
It is the first time for me, who has travelled for over 30 years, to stay in a hotel room that did not have a phone to connect with the front desk. For any requirement or information, we needed to go down to the ground floor. There were hardly any amenities except for towels and toilet paper, and liquid soap. Could not connect our devices to the TV. The beds were not comfortable, and the family room we stayed in was extremely congested. Not enough room to store luggage to hand our clothes. The buffet breakfast that was offered as part of the stay was the only plus I can say about this hotel. I WILL NOT BE STAYING HERE AGAIN

Helt ok rom, men var ikke oppreid/gjort klar for at rommet skulle benyttes av 2 personer. Måtte etterspørre dette i resepsjonen. De var raske med å rette opp situasjonen men når man allerede sjekker inn på sen kveld er det en ekstra ulempe å måtte etterspørre.

Sentralt beliggende hotell
Kompakt rom, en del støy om natten, sentralt beliggende. Godt utvalg til frokost. Selvbetjent inn og utsjekking.

Das Zimmer war gut und i.O. Aber die Betten sind katastrophal. Das Frühstück war sehr gut und eine mega Auswahl. Das Hotel ist sehr Zentral gelegen.
