We could not have found a better property or a better host. The neighbourhood is lovely, in a excellent location literally near everything (transport, shops, parks, attractions), the studio itself is perfectly sized - everything is clean, tidy, thoughtfully appointed, and the whole AirBnb package is a very attractive proposition that is simply, lovely. Exactly what you'd hope for as a home away from home.

Jannike is a natural host and conversationalist: she is ever so thoughtful, always on hand to help without being intrusive, and it's clear that she takes pleasure in sharing her home and city with us. We really enjoyed our chats with Jannike - so much to share and learn about each other, our cultures, our experiences - I suppose this is the true spirit of AirBnb? She takes pride in everything she does, and it shows - there is such a sense of care and generosity. This creates a genuinely welcoming atmosphere, which is greater than the sum of anything physical.

We went to Oslo completely on a whim, but it has proven such a delightful surprise to discover just how much there is to do and see - even in the depths of February - not least of which is because of our wonderful host and accommodation. My children bemoan leaving Oslo and Jannike's (as usual we have to go just as they got settled in...) and they really miss beautiful Lucy (with her Diamonds). And we won't forget the incredible sky on our last night! It's amazing what memories we have created in just 3 days. We hope to be back someday. Thank you for sharing your home with us.
