Neat, homely, well-equipped apartment on the Northern outskirts of Oslo. Close to the upper end of a tram line, so easy to reach, but the trip downtown takes about half an hour. The area is peaceful, safe and outdoorsy, with some nice walking paths along Akerselva and Mariedalsvann.
The bed was very big and comfy, and I enjoyed having a separate working space. It’s quite a lot of space for one person, so probably plenty enough for two people as well.
Because it’s not an apartment but an attic of a house, the soundproofing is not the best - I woke up to noises from downstairs on a few nights during my month-long stay, but for the most part, this wasn’t a problem. (Just a bit strange not following a ”silence after 11 pm” rule they set themselves…) But the host family was very friendly. Gunn was great to communicate with and I enjoyed my encounters with their cat. : )
Overall, would recommend, especially for a longer stay!
