Citybox Oslo
Was great for the price value. Very minimal staff engagement. But if you needed them, they were present. Would definitely stay there again if I was in town for a short trip.

Hotel Verdandi Oslo
Room had everything we needed. There were some strange sounds coming from the air vents in the middle of the night that briefly kept us up. Otherwise a good stay.
