Pat, United States of America

Right from the beginning, the staff was really very helpful, and polite to us. The room 614 was a wonderful Junior Suite and it was already ready with 2 rollaway beds for our 2 kids. It had 2 TVs, a walk-in closet, and views of the inner courtyard. They have an amazing gym, great for bodybuilders, and also a nice spa and pool. It was within 5-15 minutes walking distance to every place we wanted to see in Oslo.

Very Poor
- • Business trip

The room was horrible... it’s extremely tiny, filthy... so so filthy... i took a water glass and there were stains all over the glasses, the mirror has stains from the previous customers, the blankets from the bed and the bed are too small. The bathroom is too small and very filthy as well. When i was in the shower the water just leaked from underneath the glass curtain all over the bathroom floor which made it even more slippery when i got out. Would not recommend this hotel to anyone. It has been awful to be honest. The air-con/heater is either overworking or underworking and gives you a pleasant sound like you have a turbo jet engine in your room. To compare this hotel to a 5 star hotel is to compare camping to staying at the ritz. There is no comparison to be made. Also the restaurant of the hotel has a total of 4 main dishes to choose from, and 3 of them were unavailable when I went there... it definitely enters my top 3 worst hotel, i’ve ever stayed at. Oh and the breakfast was until 10.00 and the staff already started to remove practically everything by 09.30... so i left feeling very hungry still since everything was gone in a matter of seconds.
The location, it’s right in the square but they pretty much made sure that the streets surrounding the hotel are all not possible to drive into, so to get to the hotel was an absolute nightmare.
