John Richard and Hilde were amazing hosts! First about the apartment- lovely place right next to a quiet park but so accessible to the rest of Oslo (easy 10 minute walk to everything), and we really appreciated the Tempurpedic mattress. Now the important part, the hosts! Really detailed instructions and communication from booking through check out. I have not seen a better "directions to our house" document. John Richard and Hilde already had a comprehensive booklet printed about sites to see in Oslo and around, but they personally sat down and gave us tips for a walking tour and a fantastic recommendation for dinner (one of the best meals we've had in Europe). We truly enjoyed their hospitality.
