Best Value

Best check in that I have ever enjoyed. Centrally located well appointed at a reasonable price. When checking out advised to leave our bags in the room lock the door and drop off the key. They carried our bags down stairs and stored our bags until it was time to leave Flam

Spacious and newly refurbished

Spacious and newly refurbished. Kitchenette was well appointed with fridge, freezer, stove, coffee maker, water boiler, microwave. To my negative surprise the apartment (101B) was in the basement, which was not highlighted at time of booking. The bathroom did not come with shower gel/shampoo. Overall good value for money.

Great location - not good experience.

We signed up for an apartment not a basement closed apartment which is what we got. There was no Sofa only two uncomfortable chairs to sit on. When we tried to request a change, the service centre of the apartments had changed location in Oslo and would not answer phone and we could not find them. So it was calling Finland or having no communication. Eventually we tracked them down but all this cost half a day in Oslo. No working TV unless you are a Comcast expert. I think the company has a model which works for a very narrow segment of the visiting population. Wish them luck but I will never recommend this or use this service again.

Pros: Nice apartment. Affordable and convenient location. Very spacious and clean. It has Ironing board, big refrigerator, washer machine and other convenient appliances. Cons: it's a basement, I couldn't get the tv to work. You can hear the neighbors upstairs walking and that was super annoying.

Bra stand uten forstand

Bad om øvre etasjer, men fikk kjeller. Også påstand om angivelig røyklukt fra rommet hvor jeg uten forvarsel mottok epost vedlagt "røykeavgift", noe som ikke var opplyst om, ei heller tilfelle her. Leiligheten var ny og fin og veldig bra beliggenhet.

fantastic few days in wonderful Oslo

Quiet location. Easy walking distance to the centre or buses and trains for ship museums. A couple of minutes to a supermarket. Apartment was cosy and had everything we needed. There’s no lift in the block, not a problem for us but might be for some.

Det var en stor dejlig lys og luftig lejlighed med hvad vi havde brug for. Rent og pænt. Måske lid sparsomt med bordplads i køkkenet, men det gik. Vi kommer meget gerne igen ,også på grund af den centrale beliggenhed.

M&L, Toronto, Canada

The terms are not clear when booking. Apparently we could only gain access to the apartment after 4 pm by means of a code to be delivered that same day after 12 noon. We had no access to internet to pick up the code. As well, since we arrived in Oslo at 8 am, we would have had to drop our luggage off at one property and then pick it up to take it to the actual Apartment, with both locations being too far apart to do easily. Therefore we wanted to cancel and book a hotel without all these hassles. However, though we requested cancellation over a week before we travelled, we never did get confirmation and were charged the full amount. Disappointed with Expedia and can't really comment on the property because we never used the reservation.

Stor og fin leilighet med det meste av det man måtte trenge av kjøkken og renholdsutstyr tilgjengelig. God beliggenhet i et rolig område med korte avstander til det meste. Enkel og grei løsning ved innsjekk.

Smallest apartment in Oslo

I will not be staying here again. The apartment was too small even for one small adult. The bathroom was about 1.5m x 2m and was so small you couldn’t sit down in the toilet. There was no need for your knees and I’m not tall. The sink was too small to wash in. I had to wash in the kitchen sink! The bedroom was so small you could only access the bed from one side and you had to walk sideways to get there. There was nowhere to hang your clothes apart from the hook next to the front door. This apartment is too small to rent out as an apartment. I could get a cheaper hotel room with more space. Not happy at all

Styr unna!

Fikk feil leilighet, feil beliggenhet, en alt i alt utrolig kjip opplevelse med Forenom som vi aldri kommer til å benytte oss av igjen! I tillegg var det noen (vaskepersonell mest sannsynlig) som bare låste seg inn i leiligheten klokken 10 på morgenen! Utrolig unødvendig når utsjekk er kl 11.
