Ellen's apartment in Grünerløkka has to be one of the best values on Airbnb for Oslo.
1. The location: The apartment is in the heart of Grünerløkka. You are walking distance to many of the coolest and best design/clothing/coffee shops in Oslo. The Aker River is a block away and that has to be one of most beautiful sights I have seen in any city. Additionally, there is an excellent supermarket, movie theatre, indian restaurant, pizza place and convenience store all either in the building or on the same block.
2. The Apartment: This is a two bedroom flat with ample space for 4 people. It's a penthouse so you have lovely views all over the city and the breeze is tremendous. There is a TV with netflix, a dishwasher, a washer/dryer and an ELEVATOR! Those are quite rare in baltic region. The apartment is lavishly decorated yet very comfortable and homey. We looked forward to going home at the end of the day.
3. The Host: Ellen is very friendly and warm. She gave us a nice tour of the apartment and provided us with a nicely stocked fridge with beer, milk, soda and also some snacks. She left us with the feeling that we were at home in her space and should feel comfortable. I really appreciated that.
I highly recommend this apartment!
