A pleasure to be the first review of this great space. Stayed in Oslo with a friend for 6 days through NYE. Our hosts Marianne and her boyfriend Gudmundur were responsive with communication before and all throughout our stay with any questions we had. Gudmundur greeted us promptly as the taxi dropped us off at the building and gave us a thorough tour of the home. He was both friendly and highly informative. Although we didn't get a chance to make a lot of use of it, he had also set up a Google map layout of Oslo and the immediate surrounding neighborhood that included his personal suggestions of bars, restaurant and activities.
Although not smack dab central, the neighborhood is great and has everything you need for a day or night out on the town. However if central is what you're looking for (main shopping plazas, higher traffic areas), then do not be discouraged to use the (super easy) transit systems. That's exactly what we did. Literally just 15-20 minutes in travel time (if even that) and as stated the stop is right around the corner. No transfers, minimal wait times, easy.
Last but not least, the space. Everything is as what you see in photos. It's actually more enjoyable in person! Great blue tooth sound system in the living room when you want to jam out or veg out, the sound is great. Of course well equipped kitchen, bathrooms, etc. Everything you need. With that being said if you only utilize one thing and one thing only, you have to enjoy the downstairs theater system they have set up! Gudmundur set up his personal PC with a guest Airbnb account so you have access to tons of movies you can stream, not to mention access to the Internet and a printer for your personal use. All in all. Great stay, would do it again if back in Oslo.
