A Nice Stay
wonderful array morning run quiet room
I found the breakfast amazing with a wonderful array of choices. The location allowed a quick walk to the river path, perfect for my morning run. The room provided was quiet and I slept soundly. I especially loved the proximity to Grunerlokka. It was only a short walk away.
The air conditioning unit in the room seemed to condense a lot, causing a wet spot on the floor in the hallway. This was a bit inconvenient.

My room had nice decorations and was very comfortable,. It also included helpful amenities, such as liquid soap, conditioner, and a hairdryer. The large bathroom added to the experience.

i found the breakfast to be really good. there was lots of choice and it was the best i've had in a hotel for a very long time. the windows opened, that was a bonus for fresh air. the bathroom was clean with daily room service.
they asked if we wanted to have our room cleaned and we said yes, this did not happen though. the receptionist was not helpful at all.

breakfast selection scenic river ventilation problem loud sound
The breakfast selection amazed me. So many choices were available and everything tasted fresh. The hotel's location proved very convenient. It sat close to the vibrant Grunerlokka area and a scenic river path!
The ventilation seemed off. It shut down at night. I could not open the windows easily, made the room stuffy. I heard loud sounds of water traveling through pipes whenever someone flushed a toilet above me! This issue was quite disruptive.
