Its a low cost small hotel room in the center of the city, a couple blocks from the train station and was very convenient to the event I attended. There was really nothing special and there were problems with self-check in not taking the number I had for the reservation. This was very difficult and another person was having the same problem. Clean and safe and convenient, modern design style, shows some wear, and rooms were basic but private. Street noise kept me awake all night long.

It's a 5-minute walk to Central Station. I really liked that I could walk to so many places. It was uncomfortable because I would fall over every time I used the bathroom trash can.

I stayed here once before in Bldg A and had a great experience. This time I was in Bldg C and it was rough. No AC, with windows that barely opened to something like an alleyway, so zero airflow. I actually sat with my room door open for awhile to let the airconditioning from the hallway waft in. The flooring in the room was rubbery like a gym floor. I had one question about luggage check for the staff and they seemed annoyed to be bothered.

Very good value for money, great location, very easy check in / out. I booked a small single room, it was fine for one night. Elevators small so occasionally a wait to use them, and bathroom a bit tired- and the bare minimum of towels / soap etc. A bit like a hostel but with a private bathroom. I would stay again if I had a one night stay in Oslo.

Love the automation. We have stayed here before with no negatives. But this time our room was in disrepair with missing clothes bar, no hangers, broken plaster on wall, no towel butler and soap dispenser in shower broken and falling off the wall. Staff was not very responsive to these concerns.
