The apartment was very basic and felt like it needed a refresh. Otherwise, basic place for a budget price. Location is some way from centre and not the best area but not far from the Botanical Gardens.

Effortless budget stay.

I was a bit sceptic to this hotel, it had gottrn some bad reviews the same week I was going to stay. The check-in was done remotely, no problem with that. Just use the phone, present your card for a deposit for cleaning/damages and present a key card for programming. It was easy and the operator spoke english. The room was basic, no AC, but fridge, stove top a microwave oven and some utensils to make food if you wish to do that. The room had a normal bath with shower, a double bed and a balcony.The overall cleaning was normal, could've been better, but clean sheets and towels. The apartments are close to the subway, bus, and a variety of food courts, grocery shops and bars nearby. Got my deposit back the same day I checked out. Overall a 4/5 experience for a budget 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.

Great location, but too damp!

Smooth check in and great location! It was also very clean. However the room was too hot. There was a fan, but since you could barely open the window it got so damp, especially at night. That was a severe drawback, would stay there again, but not during the summer months!

Extra spacious room and bathroom. Well equipped. Clean. Very good location. Smoke detector was extra sensitive. Reacted to steam from the kettle and what I imagine was the dust lifting off the wall mounted heater. Could be a nasty surprise for someone not familiar with those devices. Also one of the hobs on the stove kept blowing the fuse rendering the stove useless. Fortunately the fuse box was in the room. Easy to fix if you know how. I would recommend the hostel for its price, comfort and proximity to the city and public transport. It helps if you’re street smart :p

A good value place to stay

I had a deluxe apt for two. it had a combined kitchen/dining/living room, separate bedroom. The kitchen had a microwave, fridge and full oven. There was two of all crockery and cutlery. Despite the normal sized oven there were only small side plates so they don't expect you to cook a big meal! location was great - near the subway and a little shopping complex with restaurants, supermarket etc. The reception was hard to find as per other reviews but you basically keep walking around the back until you find the furthest entrance door. Check in is all remote - someone on the end of a phone but all worked fine without issue. I would stay here again if I visited Oslo.

Overall not a very pleasant stay, here are some pain points: - Shower head knob too tense - Button in air vent above stove was broken - No bed lights - We received a mop to dry the bathroom floor. Some sort of wiper would be much better. - Some additional cutlery/plates (we booked a room for two but there was only one bowl to eat breakfast from) But by far the biggest pain point was that the fire alarm went off for no reason in the middle of the night. I woke up screaming, which in turn frightened my girlfriend. (apparently other people have experienced this aswell) Conclusion: Would not stay here again unfortunately, but with a few improvements it would be an okay place.

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.
