Alex is a nice guy. The biggest downsides to this place is that the apartment does not match the photos on the listing. It’s nearly totally bare and without the decor touches shown in the photos. The bedroom could have had higher quality sheets and towels, not what seemed like old fabrics from when he was younger. The shower was also broken, which was not disclosed in the listing or inna message from him as a heads up. The check-in process wasn’t smooth, but luckily Alex does respond to messages fairly quickly. On that note, he is very willing to answer your questions about what to do and where to go in Oslo. There is definite room for improvement, but I think Alex is interested and willing to do so.
