Kroksand

the price is adequate to the quality and quite decent for Oslo

This should be at least worth 4 stars…and I’m not usually a moaner…. But, the whole of the front of the building is currently covered in scaffolding and white polythene sheet, the windows are also covered in polythene. So no view and restricted light. I understand maintenance has to be done but if this was communicated we could have made a choice not to stay there. Maintenance inside is very poor, shower control was dodgy, half the downlighters didn’t work, no instructions on heating or cooling and to top it all the WiFi didn’t work meaning I used up my data allowance. We rang up the helpline but said sorry it’s the weekend! So can’t recommend as it looks like the front will be covered for some months.

Very convenient location in central Oslo. Absence of any staff also means you have to be very vigilant when you punch in the code to enter the building. A suspicious young man snuck in right behind us when we entered. Was clearly not a guest as he quickly exited a side exit and prowled the adjacent alleyway for several minutes. We informed management online only to be told not to worry since the adjacent building was being painted. The young man we saw enter was clearly not there to paint.
