There is no shortage of nice things I can say about Nora and her place. First, the place: Her home is very centrally located in Oslo without being in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the city. It's truly a retreat that is also a 25 minute walk outside downtown Oslo. But don't be fooled - her home is very centrally located. We never considered anything other than walking to and from all the things we wanted to see and do. The view was amazing. The house was beyond charming and cozy. There was a small market directly across the street open until 22:00 every night, which made for convenient snack runs. Although we didn't use the sauna, we very much wanted to, and if we are able to return in the future, we would love to make use of it. We did, however, use the Dutch tub in the backyard, and it was *amazing*. Very cool to take in the sweeping views in a hot tub at night in the winter in Oslo. There was a TV with a couch and a huge window in the primary living space, just off of the bedroom. The bed was super comfortable in our opinion, and everything was in place and ready to go as soon as we got there. Second, the person: Nora was nothing less than amazing. She's an incredibly kind, generous, and sweet person. She went to great lengths to make us feel comfortable and was not only a great host for her own home but also a great ambassador for the city, as she had prepared some great tips for us on where to eat, notable places in the city to check out, and etc. We were very fortunate to have been able to spend some time talking to and getting to know her. We loved having her very friendly cat, Couscous, there as well. If you get the chance to stay here, we suggest you take it! While I'm sure there are plenty of other ways to explore Oslo, you'd be hard pressed to find anything much better than this. Thank you, Nora!
