Sehr modernes Hostel. Großes Zimmer mit Bad. Geräumige Küche mit allem was benötigt wird, Waschraum mit mehreren Waschmaschinen (Waschmittel vorhanden) und ein Trockenraum mit Wäscheständern. Das (junge) Personal ist sehr freundlich und stets hilfsbereit. Parkplätze vorhanden. Liegt etwas weiter vom Stadtzentrum entfernt aber bequem mit Bus und Tram erreichbar. Parken in Oslo ist extrem teuer. Empfehlenswert!

Use your money on other hotel. Doesn’t worth to stay: too far from the city centre - 45 min away, taxi is expensive to get there, area is not quiet - construction, loud music up late, basketball ring by the hostel- you will hear all the banging.. room is not equipped with necessities, no hair dryer, no shampoo or conditioner. No safe. We changed this property to Radisson Blu instead, same cost and close to everything. Can’t recommend this property.

出張のため1人用の個室に1泊しました。シャワーとトイレは他の4室と共有ですが、他の宿泊者とぶつかることもなく快適に利用できました。朝食は種類も豊富で味も美味しく、カフェテリアからオスロ中心部を眺めることができます。唯一の欠点は、最寄りのトラムの駅から遠いことです。坂道を20分くらい登ります。また利用したいです。

Cet établissement n'est pas à proprement parler un "hotel", mais une école qui loue ses chambres d'étudiants l'été … Les espaces communs sont donc très agréables (billard, salons, table tennis de table, etc …), mais les chambres sont un peu spartiates mais avec salle de bain privé (lits ajoutés pour faire une chambre à 5, pas de télé, pas de caferière, frigo, etc …) Le petit déjeuner buffet est très copieux. Le rapport qualité prix est donc au final plutôt bon pour Oslo.
