Very basic, clean accomadation, very small with no closet and small bathroom with no counter space. Check in was all digital, requiring a confirmation number I didnt have. Their system would not recognize my Expedia itinerary number. Help, when it came, was cold and impersonal. I do not recommend this place for older travellers spending more than 1 night. Great location for access to the train station and, thus, the airport via the train.

The property was very convenient from the train station and provided easy check in. The room was clean. Even late at night it felt very safe. The lobby areas had a mildly bad odor and some inoperable vending machines, but I felt these were temporary problems.

Disappointing Experience Despite Prime Location

The hotel is situated in a prime area of Oslo, which initially gave us high expectations. However, our experience was disappointing from the start. Upon arrival, we were met with a rude and unwelcoming receptionist, which set a negative tone for our stay. The cleanliness of the room was below standard—no daily cleaning was provided, which was quite surprising for a hotel of this caliber. Most concerning was the condition of the washroom in Room 411. The toilet commode was broken, and despite our request to change the room, we were simply told “sorry” with no further action taken. Customer service and maintenance need serious improvement. Sadly, I wouldn’t recommend this hotel based on our experience.
