John and Hilde were terrific hosts and there place is just as lovely as the photos suggest and I can't imagine a better location for seeing the city. It's walking distance to the major stations as well as the heart of the downtown and the chic areas as well. We really appreciated their interest in helping us get around and their suggestions were rather helpful. Then they let us have as much privacy as we needed- perfect. Oslo can be expensive and having access to a kitchen was great. I would definitely stay again and recommend to others.
