Very basic but affordable accommodation in Oslo. Making your own bed wasn’t the best but if it brings costs down in this expensive city I will accept it. Staff very friendly for a busy hostel.

Decent for the price

For a hostel it is fairly quiet. If you stay out front you will have the tram rattling by, which means you can't keep the windows open at night. This will be a problem in summer
