Hotel across from main train station, so easy walk to most of the sites, but sometimes the area around the plaza seemed full of trash and some street folks (not under the control of the hotel actually) Front desk staff very friendly. Room was small and lacked place suitcase and no actual closet or drawers to put things in. Bathroom had a tricky step up, and the shower especially small as it was an odd shape- and easy to get water all over the floor. Hotel seems a bit worn, and room cleaning was not the best. Had good breakfast. There were no directions in the room for ac system so we never could figure it out - room got very hot and leaving the window open made sleeping difficult due to the club on the side street that went late each night. (again not the fault of the hotel but somehting to know)

The only downside to this hotel was that our room faced one of the main streets and it was very loud late into the night. Other than that the hotel was in a great location, easy to get to everything we wanted to do. The staff were great about helping us with any questions we had as well.

Very good stay here. Hotel was in ideal location for station, buses, trams and metro. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Our first night was marred by loud music on the street until 2am. When we asked the next morning if it was possible to have another room, we had a key to another room away from the street within 10 minutes of asking, all done efficiently and with no fuss at all. Thanks to Lars for being so helpful. Our new room was also much bigger and really comfortable. Good breakfast as well.

Front desk extremely nice and helpful. Rooms cleans but warm due to higher temps than normal, but they provided us with a fan. Shower a little small, but doable.

Nice hotel centrally located to all types of public transportation. Room was big and clean and hotel breakfast was plentiful. Very quiet, never heard neighbors. Lifts responded quickly. Great hotel for a visit to Oslo.

This is a solid, clean hotel. It has a good breakfast but the staff was a bit indifferent. The only real problem it has is its location-near the train station. It’s a fairly gritty and noisy location. There’s nothing the hotel can do about this, however.

Wonderful stay!
We were very happy with our room, the stellar service from everyone at the hotel & the delicious breakfast. Perfect first night in Norway! The he staff went above & beyond to help us with whatever we needed, even finding milk for my 2 year old in the middle of the night as we were jet lagged.

The hotel was a very nice building with a great central location. The room was very nice with plenty of room. It was a little warm in our room and it would have been helpful to have a fan in the room to cool it down. Everything was clean and the breakfast was great. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
