Location is amazing. Walking distance from all sightseeing places at the same time facing quiet streets and little square. Breakfast offers a variety of foods, coffee was great as well. Weekends it is till 11 which was essential for me as an oversees traveler. Rooms a small, but enough to sleep in and get ready to explore the city. Would absolutely love to stay there again.

The desk manager, Alexander, was fantastic! He helped us in so many ways. He was truly a godsend as we planned our travels in the city.l We also appreciated the bartenders who allowed us to sit at a back table in the lounge and play card games for several hours.

Nice room, but very small. On my own it would have been ok, but with 2 people you constantly bump into each other. Staff were friendly. There was not enough room in the breakfast room for all guests, but the breakfast items were very nice. The corridors smell odd. Nice central location. Staff prepared us a take-away breakfast due to our early flight, so that was nice of them. Overall: nice place: some good points and some room for improvement.

No aircon and 30c outside was a problem. Two soft single beds pushed together in a double room. It may be a matter of preference - but too soft for me. For the price I guess the room was ok but a bit underwhelming.

Overall a good hotel with good quality breakfast altough no pickled or mustard herring which I've come to love about Norway:) Reasonable price but I wish I'd checked that our window view would be of the atrium rather than the outside scenary. Having said that the area is quite built up so view would be minimal. Bed was comfy and we slept well. Tea and coffee from the lobby machines was a bit of a faff but ok.
