I personally would not stay here again. A few hours before check-in, the host informed me that due to a "request from Norwegian Police and for the safety of guests and our property reasons" I had to send a copy of my ID and the name on my ID must match the name of the credit card used to book the room. I found this strange because I have never had such a request on Airbnb before. Not only is my profile verified, the card used to book the room is in my name. I fully support taking measures to ensure the security of the residence and its guests, but I found it bizarre that this information about sending a copy of one's ID was not disclosed when I made the booking. If this is indeed a policy, doesn't it make sense to make the request at the time of the booking? The fact that they waited until a few hours before my arrival to make this request felt suspicious and made me somewhat uncomfortable. Their communication also felt uninviting. I certainly did not feel welcome. I am not sure if others experienced this but for transparency sake, I am disclosing this information so please be aware that depending on whatever criteria they use, this might happen to you. Anyways, I provided them with the information, and I promptly received the check-in security code.
The apartment is mostly as described. However, some items listed are available are not ( hair dryer and iron). Also, the kitchen cooker takes a comparatively longer time to heat up. Heating up water to cook basic meals like pasta takes a while. This made cooking very inconvenient. I ended up eating out more often than I would have liked. I guess this is ok if you are only staying for one or two days. I stayed 7 nights, so the kitchen is not convenient for a slightly longer stay.
Lastly, there are loud parties in the garden area during the weekends, so if you are looking for a quieter stay then this is not be the location for you.
Overall, if you need a cheap central place to stay in a nice area for a day or two then I would recommend this apartment. If you are in Oslo for a longer period of time and you are looking for a a peaceful stay in an apartment with a more "home" vibe, I definitely won't recommend this place.
