Great location
The breakfast is quite good and included in the rate. The hotel location is fantastic, right in the centre of Oslo. However the room is really really small and the look and feel is that of an old cheap place

Friendly staff and great location
This hotel has very friendly and helpful staff. The location is superb and the coffee in the lounge was appreciated. Breakfast was pleasant. I understand this isn’t a five star hotel and we didn’t need luxury as we were basically there to sleep and shower, however, the room was a little tired. There was a huge stain on the carpet by the bed and the toilet seat was broken. We were only there one night so it served our needs but these things would bother some people. The left baggage room was our of sight of reception and left unlocked as there had been a problem that day. Our belongings were fine but, again, this would bother many people
