gretchen.familyJul 04, 2023 The apartment was great. Bedroom was pretty small and tight to navigate around the bed. But otherwise great. Very nice space with fully equipped kitchen and a clothes washer. Our issue that we had here was with the noise from the neighborhood. The area has a vibrant nightlife and was extremely loud. There were people talking, laughing, yelling all hours of the night. Car horns were honked throughout the night - even between 3am and 4am. This happened every night of our stay. One night a partygoer sat on the steps across from our window and vomited for an hour or so. The first night I woke up at 3:30am from the noise and put on my noise cancelling headphones. I was then able to sleep and did this for the remainder of the nights. Otherwise the apartment was everything we needed and very conveniently located.
amrith.familyAug 09, 2022 Very nice property
Easy location and clean neighborhood
Issues
Communication was poor
Bathroom ceiling fell almost on my head
Missing toiletries and towels :)
verified t.familyFeb 21, 2020 Liked the location of the property.
Viasat TV option in English were appreciated but could be improved with a channel for children/teenagers or a payable Movie channel.
The overall decoration, use of colours and atmosphere of the flat was very pleasant.
An extra light (brighter) in the main room would have been appreciated as well as a second sofa or another armchair as the comfy seating area was limited for a family of 5.
But we had a very good stay. Thank you!
You have to go to another building to check-in
verified t.familyJan 01, 2020 Lovely apartment, nice location just a big problem because no parking space provided.
karen.partnerDec 27, 2019 The location of the property was great; train station, sights, restaurants, parks, etc were all within walking distance. The neighborhood was quiet and pretty. The apartment itself was quite spacious, it was two floors with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Lots of windows too. There was a washer but no dryer. The only think that bothered me a bit was a humming in the first floor (where 2 of the 3 bedrooms were, and both bathrooms). The noise was continuous, all day long. It would maybe bother you if you slept downstairs. Other than that the place was great, super clean, and comfortable. Be careful with the steep steps too.
verified t.familyOct 22, 2019 Everything was good, except the check in process, it located somewhere near the apartment, not the same building, it take a while to find the reception during the rainy day ; BTW, the apartment is great, quite big, nice kitchen and kitchentery, good heater, good location, friendly reception, good room, I like everything except the check in process
verified t.familyOct 11, 2019 Very near to public transport and super market, Got ours to free upgrade to penthouse. Excellent place. View from terrace is awesome. Tv with Netflix and amazon prime.
verified t.familySep 23, 2019 the unit was clean...the checkin was a little confusing to find as were the apartments, but it worked....i didn't like that there was nobody for me to ask questions to....but the location was good and the unit felt clean and safe
verified t.family_with_childrenSep 02, 2019 A stunning home from home, close to the centre of Oslo. Clean and freindly, it was suppied with everything we needed. Within 15 mins walk of the main shopping street and Aker Brygge and close to stations.
verified t.family_with_childrenAug 26, 2019 The place was ok for our purposes, not great, as we were traveling with a 2 year old and it was not well equipped to handle him. Spiral staircase was hard to navigate, sparse kitchen amenities for cooking in and walls were thin with loud music on weekend nights. Probably would have all been fine if we weren’t traveling with a toddler. Also we should have read fine print that check in was in a different building.
verified t.familyJul 29, 2019 The place was great but we booked for 3 people and there were no sheets for the pull out couch so I contacted them and asked for them and they brought us a cot instead. I would have preferred to have sheets for the couch ready when we got there as booked. Also the description made it sound like the breakfast was included not that you can order it if you would like it. I think the wording should be adjusted to be clearer.
Other than that the place was great.
verified t.familyJul 21, 2019 Good location, nice neighborhood, apartment is good for short stay, we stayed for 2 nights with the kids and nobody came to clean the rooms. Email confirmation didn't work for us when we asked the vegetarian breakfast.
Modern, clean, would stay again (small annoyances)
We'd stay again in our spacious place in this apartment house. Pros: clean, lots of room, fridge/kitchen, short walk from light rail, nice neighborhood, washing machine, quiet. Small cons: no clothes dryer (but did have a rack), kitchen inventory wasn't complete (no chopping board, for example), bathroom is very roomy but the shower is tight as a phone booth, hardly any counter space in bathroom, poor lighting over bathroom sink. It's a nice, modern place sprinkled with odd irritations.
Very clean and very spacious. Well located and only 6-7 min walk from National theatret station and close to Vigeland Park which was great.
Very nice place, central and still calm and quiet. Next door to the train.
The place we had was amazing. 3 bedrooms 2 bathrooms and a full kitchen. There is a small lobby in the main building that you can leave luggage in, though it's not secure. We checked in electronically and walked to our place. Breakfast was delivered to us in little paper sacks ouside our door and was so plentiful that it ended up being our breakfast and lunch. We were within walking distance to the palace, but a little ways away from the sites. There were 2 grocers right down the street and plentiful cafes and resturants. We had difficulty with the washer and when we enquired, the staff member came right over to help. She was unable to help us but phoned a janitor and offered us a solution of using the washer and dryer in the main building. A janitor arrived about an hour later and had to turn the water on. We we're impressed with how kind and accommodating they were. We had a wonderful stay, the area was so quiet and peaceful and we enjoyed hearing the birds.
verified t.selfJun 09, 2019 I stayed here in the Oscargate 86 property. Check-in was automated. I appreciate that this saved costs, but I didn't'y know where I was going and had a heavy suitcase. It wasn't immediately obvious where the property was and I was a bit grumpy having to wheel my bag around - uphill - looking for it. But when I found it, the property was superb! It is east to get to - on the number 12 tram from the central station - and the neighbourhood is very nice indeed. I'd stay there again - especially as I know where it is now!
Great and comfortable stay
Great and comfortable stay. Much more enjoyable than a hotel room! Modern apartment in good location.
Great base for Oslo stays
Great apartments. Large living area, good sized bedrooms - small bathrooms. Need thicker curtains to stop so much light coming into the bedrooms. Overall recommended.
