From the first moment we had interacted through AirBnb, Kareem had been very efficient in communication, very responsive and helpful in offering tips for transport from airport and waited for me late in the evening in order to make sure I get accommodated well and safely. Then throughout the week of my stay he went a step further with his kindness; preparing me breakfasts, checking-up on me, offering sightseeing tours, driving me to airport on a way back etc. In overall, the interaction with him was very easy, friendly and based on mutual-respect.
As a female solo traveler, I must admit that I had been hesitant to stay with only-male host but in case of Kareem, you can be assured that he would treat you professionally, kindly and with all respect towards your dignity and background from wherever you are coming from.
As per the general conditions at the apartment; I can assure you that they are all very well and accurately described on his profile; whatever is listed as well of technical equipment will be constantly available to you. The private room you get with this offer is indeed small but with everything you need to feel comfortable and safe (besides single bed, you have private desk with computer, printer machine, small fridge, basket, clean towels, window with good isolation etc.). It is perfect for those who do not plan to stay too much time inside the room but rather on sightseeing or other activities in the city. In my case I was for a training there at the University, so I didn't need to spend so much time at the apartment. The apartment's location was very convenient in my case; only one metro stop was needed for me to reach the city center (less than 10 minutes in total), while in the evening hours I preferred walking down the street all the way to apartment because the streets felt safe, with good street lights and very much pleasing to eyes for half an hour walk.
Overall, I didn't face any disappointments related to this booking, quite contrary - it exceeded my expectations and would recommend with good faith to any traveler of good intent to stay at his apartment.
If you are interested about more details related to my stay and Kareem's apartment and hospitality, please do not hesitate to contact me in private inbox, I would be more than happy to help you with all queries.
Enjoy your stay in Oslo!
