Great first experience.
I've been in Oslo for business and stayed at Bente's apartment for 2 days.
About the house: exactly as described and as you can see in the pictures. Clean, very warm, nice open terrace clean and good room, for one person (maybe too small for a couple, but that was not my case).
About Bente: she's a perfect host. I arrived very late in Oslo, and she waited for me up until 1 am. She was so nice. She helped me a lot also during my last day before going to airport again, thanks!
I also had a very good barbecue dinner with Bente and her friends.
Oh yes, i can't forget the morning espresso with a real italian coffee machine!
So, by my side i have had a very positive experience as first time using airbnb.
