주차장이 별도로 없어 주차비가 많이 나왔지만 지내는 동안 편히 쉴수 있었습니다. 소음도 적고 아침 조식 서비스도 괜찮았습니다.

We were impressed with the location, it’s on the tramline and really convenient to get all over the city. The team went past the window and could be heard from the room but we really enjoyed the sound of it.

Easy to find and a great location. Only challenge for us are the trams, we live in the countryside at home, but we did get used to it.
Staff could not be better and the breakfasts as are good as you’d get anywhere at this price.
If we return to Oslo we’d definitely stay here again.
