We stayed in Olav’s apartment for 4 nights and had a wonderful experience.
The apartment is on the top floor (like most European apartments, there is no elevator) of a quiet apartment building on a small side street. There is a small park across the street with a playground and a weekly market on Saturdays.
Within 10 minutes walk you have the subway station,
Majorstuen, and plenty of shops. The subway/train system is very easy to use and
Majorstuen is only a couple of stops from central Oslo.
We had three very busy days in Oslo as we had purchased the Oslo City Pass; this is a great deal if you like visiting lots of museums, it also covers local subway, tram and bus fares. It was so nice to return to Olav’s apartment in the evening and have plenty of space to cook a meal and relax.
The apartment is extremely spacious, the bed is huge and comfy, the kitchen is very well equipped and there are plenty of food basics like spices, oil and vinegar, milk etc. Olav also left us a bowl of fruit and breakfast croissants/rolls.
We enjoyed this apartment very much and wholeheartedly recommend it!
