It was perfect stay for young girls. I went with my friend. Safety is also really good and the hostel is located in a hill area. It has such nice view. So so beautiful. The room was very clean and they gave us new and clean bed linens and towels. The bathroom has everything, you just have to bring the toothbrush and toothpaste. They got the soap for you as well. We had the breakfast in the morning and it was so good as well. The shared kitchen is equipped with everything. You have to take the bus or a tram to get in there from the central station but it's worth it. If you buy the 24hrs ticket pass you can travel using tram or bus. And you can use the pass to go around the city. It's a superb place to stay. Very safe, very beautiful, very clean. The staff was very polite as well.

The towels we got were dirty and stained. We could not use them. We took pictures and went to the reception to get new towels. The gentleman refused to give us towels as he wanted proof that the towels were not cleaned by their cleaning contractors. This shocked me. I gave them the original towels and finally got fresh towels.

Great Budget Stay with Beautiful Views – But Plan for Transportation. I stayed at the HI Oslo Haraldsheim Hostel and had a comfortable and pleasant experience overall. The hostel offers a free breakfast each morning, which is a great way to start the day. There are also snacks and drinks available for purchase in the lobby. The rooms are clean and come with a sink, while restrooms and showers are located in separate shared spaces. Note that there are stairs to access different floors, so if you have mobility issues, it’s worth requesting a lower bunk or a more accessible room. One thing to keep in mind: the hostel is located in a residential neighborhood that doesn’t have any food options within walking distance. It’s also a bit far from the city center, so you’ll likely need to take a tram, taxi, or Uber to get around. On the plus side, the hostel has a large outdoor yard where guests can relax or enjoy a game of yard chess. Overall, it's a great value if you're comfortable with hostels and are okay with using public transport. I’d definitely stay here again with proper planning.

Lovely setting, plentiful breakfast w lots of choice (no rotten or mouldy food while I was there, to address earlier reviews). Staff are very helpful and the grounds are beautiful. It’s not central, but is good value. Easy access to public transportation. Kitchen is clean and well equipped and breakfast meal service is good.

Clean and comfortable, but out of the city.

I found this property very clean and reasonably comfortable. They had a laundry room which was very handy and a comprehensive buffet breakfast. It was a quiet area and quite away from the city centre, which is an expensive taxi ride too and from. There are local buses and trams which may get you near, if you can work out how to find and interpret the stops etc.

The property is located in a beautiful area right outside of Oslo. It’s clean, the staff is extremely friendly and helpful. They have an amazing kitchen that has all the equipment and space you need. The rooms are clean as are all the facilities and the laundry is affordable and works!

Good hostel

Great hostel for what it’s worth. Breakfast was included by default, which included a series of breads, meats, and some vegetables and drinks. There is no AC so it can get a bit warm in the summer, and the community bathroom got dirty easily due to a leak in the sink. Otherwise, it was great. Linens and towels were included by default and check in even at 1am was good; the receptionist on the phone instructed me where to go. It’s about a 10 walk down the hill to a tram or bus station, the latter of which has direct lines to/from airport (nearly 1 hour).
