Krodsherad Vacations from $694

Very loud area - a LOT of street noise, dated, bathroom smelled moldy, no refrigerator, asked for luggage rack, tight space, elevator doors were slamming into people. Pictures online were not representative of hotel. Staff were nice and breakfast was good!

Thus was a great place for just a few days in the city.

1. Hotel itself was charming, especially the bar and dining area. Breakfast was great. 2. Our room was small, not furnished for us to unpack our suitcases, so we had to pull them out every day to get our clothes; the closet was dark and inconvenient. 3. The room had no ventilation, and the small refrigerator contributed to the heat. When we opened the windows to cool down, the noise outside was too loud. Upon request, the staff did provide a desk fan, which helped. 4. It was Summer, so the sun was up most of the night. Again, the staff provided darkening curtains upon our request, but why did we have to ask? 5. The bathroom had minimal shelving, so we moved the luggage rack into the bathroom to place our toiletries. And the bathtub had no non-slip mat or safety bars for us seniors. I shared my concerns when we checked out with the hope some of these issues will be corrected for the next guests.

Truly like having an apartment in the city. We got tired long ago of going out to eat every afternoon and night. Here we prepped lunches and cooked dinners on most nights (we stayed for a week.) There was also a washer for our clothes (no dryer, but a drying rack and plenty of living-room space worked well). The only downside is that Oslo has no sound ordinances, and people rev no-muffler motorcycles throughout the night until 4am in the summer that would get them arrested in any other sane city.
