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

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.

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.

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.

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

Adequate – just!

Check in office is a long walk across town (in the rain) from the apartment and not easy to find (no sign). When I finally got to the apartment and open the door it had that stale cooking smell :-( Sitting on the couch i look up an notice the long cracks in the ceiling, hummm! The bathroom (with its threadbare towels) was so small you could not get your head over the sink to brush your teeth without spilling water everywhere (cupboard under split from the water!). The beds (two small singles) were just a spring base and a topper, not very comfortable, but clean. Oh, and lucky I was by myself because even though it was supposed to have a full kitchen there was only one cup! (BTW, not even a couple of tea bags or coffee for when you arrive).

Good Value!

Very good value considering the location and size of the apartment, and comfort of the beds. We stayed at these accommodations twice (on two different occasions). Both apartments were BIG and the beds very comfortable. However, the kitchens and bathrooms are in desparate need of a makeover. We were not bothered by this as we spent very little time in our rooms. However, if you are looking for luxury, or even nice, this would not meet expectations.

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.
