Had a wonderful stay in Oslo, a large part of which was due to coming 'home' each evening to Iren's beautiful, cosy flat. The flat is full of sunlight, warm and very nicely decorated, it's just the right size for a couple or for someone travelling alone (although the sofa is also very comfy!). Iren was very friendly and responsive over email and sent detailed directions and helpful tips to us before we arrived (including the fact that the grocery store would be shut on Sunday so to stock up on arrival...). The kitchen was very well equipped, we had everything we needed and Iren kindly left us tea and coffee to help ourselves to. The bed is comfy and Iren left us a pile of clean, fluffy towels to use. For those of you who have to do some work whilst on your stay in Oslo, the internet worked well and the flat has a cosy little desk corner you can use, as well as the main table. Last but not least, the view is indeed amazing (the apartment building is on a hill above the city) all the way across Oslo and to the harbour (you can watch the cruise ships sail in and out) and the balcony is comfy and perfect for sitting outside and enjoying the view. You can walk into the centre in about 20mins (at a slow walk) or catch the bus just outside the flat and be there in 5mins - the neighbourhood is quiet and pretty but not isolated, and the grocery store is very helpfully right by the bus stop. All in all - a fantastic place to stay and we would definitely do so again!
