Oslo Homestays

The location is great, right in the centre of Reykjavík, 5 minutes walk to reach the main attractions. The room was clean and tidy and there was a complimentary breakfast offered which was great.

This was the cheapest accommodation that I could find in Oslo for a dorm. I was very pleased that they had a female only dorm which was not advertised on their website. The dorm was fine but the bunk bed was a little bit flimsy and it was difficult to get up and down the ladder as the rungs were so thin. There is no longer an extra charge for bedding. The lockers were on the ground floor near reception and you needed your own padlock. The kitchen was like a sauna/greenhouse as windows were not opened but very spacious with useful cooking facilities (that you did not need to hire). The toilet and shower facilities were also good. The rooftop terrace was fantastic. The cleaners do a great job of keeping the place spotless. The downside is that the hostel is 1.5 miles from the Central station, however there is a lot to see and do in or near Grunerlokka such as the bars, nightclubs, Botanic Garden, Nedre Foss and the Labour Museum. Lockers were free at Deichmann library, National Museum and Munch Museum in the centre if you needed to store your luggage before or after check in/out.

It was like Fort Knox to get into as we arrived earlier than the 3p check in. We buzzed outside the building and someone answered eventually to let us into the walkway and small courtyard only to find the door locked to get into the apartments. The guy on the intercom said to press the buzzer, but we pressed everything and still couldn't get in. We saw the cleaners on the ground floor and pounded on the glass until they let us in. The place is a bit low profile on the outside with only a small plaque on the wall with the name on it. It's an automatic check-in with a machine in the foyer. Once we had that sorted out we eventually took the lift (the only time it worked) to our apartment to find a tiny bedroom with a bed pushed against the walls and not room for much else, meaning if you had to get up during the night, the person against the wall (window) had to climb over the other one (like a speed bump) to get out. There is a really small wardrobe, but for travellers no room to put suitcases. The living area is very roomy, so we had our suitcases in there and the kitchenette was good to have. The bathroom unfortunately is super tiny with a vanity, toilet, shower and washing machine squashed in there. The shower was hard to navigate to get in and out as the vanity and washing machine were in the way and you had to juggle both doors to squeeze past. The shower did get blocked at one stage and had to stop mid shampoo to unblock the drain before it flooded the bathroom. On the plus side, the living area was good except we had our suitcases in there (and that became very messy). The kitchen was great and had all the pots and pans and cutlery/crockery needed and it was good to be able to do laundry. The apartment is situated in Grunerlokka where only a short walk away you can access nice restaurants, a park, small convenience stores and lovely shopping. Nearby is Ankerselva River which was really lovely for walks along at the end of the day.

The apartment is quite small for a family of four. The sink in kitchen area is the smallest that i have ever encounter. Other than that, everything is fine. It's nice for a short stay.

I have mixed feelings here. The location was really good for us (close to the library, where I was working, and close to Aker Brygge and the city centre). The staff were also friendly and tried their best to resolve issues quickly. We never got the heating fixed and our flat was extremely hot for our entire stay, and though they brought us a tiny fan, we were quite warm, especially at night. However, I agree with other reviewers here, who noted that the flats are pretty small and that for the price, you'd expect a bit more. I think for stays over 5 or so days, they should automatically clean, rather than charging for it. They should also offer more toilet paper and kitchen towels instead of expecting you to buy it, and they could provide aluminium foil and a few other basics (again, given the price we're paying). I'd like to see refillable soap containers, in order to be more eco-friendly, rather than small plastic bottles that they presumably throw away. And I think they could easily offer a vegan breakfast (you know, bread with vegetables isn't that hard to prepare...). In general, though, we had a good stay.

We stayed as a family at this property, and were upgraded to a two bed apartment which was clean, comfortable and well maintained. The check in process is via self service in another building which is a 5 min walk. If you have large luggage I recommend you leave it at oscarsgate 86 property and walk down to Skovien 8 to check in as the way back will be uphill for about 50 metres and will be difficult to drag large luggage. There is a supermarket within 5 mins walk which sells most things you will need to make your own breakfast, or cook a meal as eating out is expensive in Norway. The nearby 7-11 also sells tram/bus tickets and decent ready to eat food which is also reasonably priced. The Tram/Bus stop is about 5 min walk from the property and you can reach the City in 10-15 mins and its very convenient and cheaper way to travel as Taxis are very expensive. There is no reception onsite, but towels, sheets, toiletries etc u need are left on a cart near the main entrance so you can access them. There is a Washing Machine in the bathroom, which has instructions in Norwegian (english would be helpful) and you have to buy your own washing powder. There is a dishwasher in Kitchen but only 1 tablet is provided, so if u are staying more than a day u need to buy dishwasher tablets (property should provide a few) Overall we would stay here again if we visited Oslo and recommend this property to other travelers
