Cool top-floor view
It`s a really practical location for a hotel in Oslo, great for visitting all the attractions in the city center and getting to public transport for other attractions. We were lucky and got a room on the top floor with a nice view, appreciated that

The breakfast was fantastic!!! The location was great-just a block off the the main pedestrian zone and between the train station and national museum. Room and bathroom were small, but nice and the bed was comfortable. Only negative was that the carpet in the room and hallways were pretty stained and could really be replaced.

Exactly what I expected (except the drunk singers)
Currently doing a hop-scotch trip (many countries for short periods of time) and this was just what I was looking for. Not too fancy and not too expensive. My only warning is the neighborhood is NOISY, so either bring earplugs or be prepared to constantly wake up due to drunk people shout-singing outside until at least 3 in the morning.

Bergen
If you book the cheapest room be prepared to carry your luggage down a flight of stairs to your room. We used lift to floor 3 then had to cross a covered walkway to the newer part of the hotel and go down the stairs to access our room. Location is fine with a Bergen card as could access a bus or tram to go anywhere.

Good location but very noisy with drunks partying outside past 3 am . Must keep your window closed- hotel is well sound proofed. Killer breakfast included for us and well worth it- eggs made several different ways, salmon, smoked mackerel, wonderful bakery breads, fruits, pastry, etc etc. hotel could be cleaner but not terrible- was met with a pile of trash on the floor when we got off the elevator- I assumed from housekeeping but not a good welcome!
