The check in is done by phone. You don't see anyone during check in or out. We were instructed to open the windows when cooking. We did that, and also used the fan over the stove, but the smoke alarm went off. A gentleman came to our door and asked if the windows were open, and we said yes, and that we also had the fan on. He said okay, that's fine, and left. After that we also used the room fan directed at the window while cooking and the alarm didn't go off. One night there was a group of very loud young men outside for several hours but we couldn't figure out what they were doing. The building itself has different levels and sections with no elevator. We discovered our room was near another entrance we could have used without hauling our luggage through different sections and up stairways.

I was not able to stay at this property as there is a self-check in but no one at Central City Apartments will answer messages or calls regarding how to check-in. I have asked Expedia for my money back since I literally could not get in to my room and had to get another hotel, but Expedia said they would have to call the property. Expedia has been unable to get anyone to answer at the property (same as me;) and yet still won't agree to refund my money. Never book Central City Apartments because you'll end up paying double for another hotel in Oslo. Expedia is going downhill as well and still has not contacted me about returning my money (Expedia was supposed to send me an email as soon as they were able to reach Central City Apartments.)

Impossible to communicate with them. I sent multiple emails and there was zero acknowledgement. Uncomfortable beds. The area was not bad, fairly close.

DON'T CONSIDER THIS PROPERTY. For the price, it horrendous. Disciplable communication for a self service and no reception service. At checkin you have a call via a shelf ad that's IF you get through on the first attempt. Several calls later, the only thing the indian woman on call cared for was the deposit money you'll pay (about 150 pounds)but you won't know about this amount until you sadly committed to the property. Expedia take zero accountability for this. Moving to get to the room, you also don't have a working telephone in the room. It's a lousy room. Old, haggard. Daft use of space with a TV set up far up the guttering height. Dispicable kitchenette. The property offers scratched frying pan which would class as a terrible health hazard seeping poison into you. Basic basic things they couldn't think of got the price paid. The electricity was horrific in which it went off during the day. The hot water for the shower also was a problem but who do you tell? You couldnt get hold of anyone. This moves me to my next issue which were the tiny beds provided on the hardened bedding ever. If you are over UK size 10 (female) you are most likely going to fall out the bed (pictures) or hit yourself. It's 2/3rds of a single bed. I hated my stay and had poor help from Expedia. A full investigation should be done and a complaint to the atol protection for the failure to keto he me feeling safe. On the very last day I met some of the staff who seemed nice. Yawn. Hated my stay.

The only complaint I have is that because these are unmanaged or at least I never met or saw an employee - there was no one to deal with the folks who decided to stay up yelling and screaming all night. The next night too someone came onto a shared balcony and tried to look into my window. Just there wasn’t anyone to call in these situations for help.

First of all, there is no reception, you walk in and there is a small desk to the right with a phone and a card reader, you call through to some office and you are then informed about a £200.00 deposit which is not mentioned anywhere. I had to help 2 lots of new guests in using this system during my stay as no one could understand it. We then go into the room, there were utensils in the draw covered in food, the floor was filthy, and worst of all the curtains were covered and stained from what was clearly bodily fluids, disgusting place. We asked for the curtains to be changed and were told they would be, however they were not. Nobody was around when we got back. We took lots of photos and will be taking this further.

Close to Tøyen station - 10 min metro or 25 min walk to Oslo city centre. Easy check in and deposit refunded promptly. However, room smelt strongly of cigarette smoke, poorly lit and very noisy neighbours (minimal sound proofing) and area felt unsafe - particularly at night.
