Richard and Hilde were very pleasant and helpful hosts, who made every effort to make us feel comfortable in their home. They were flexible with our arrival and departure times, and we appreciated that we could leave our bags at their place while we continued to explore Oslo before our late departure. The apartment is in a very central area, is quiet, the bed is comfortable, and the room overlooks a small quiet park. Most importantly, the apartment is clean and I felt comfortable. It's close enough to the central train station to be convenient, but far enough to be in a a comfortable area (about 8 min walk). The location allowed us to see more than the touristy area of the city when we learned that not far (6 min walk) is a new and up and coming area of the city and was recommended to us by others to see. Overall, a good experience that enabled us to have a memorable visit in Oslo. We loved the city!
