You need to understand that this is a very basic hotel. Clean and nice. But self registration, no coffee, no refrigerators, no shampoo, no tissue. It is basically a step up from a hostel for adults. It is fine

Terrific Oslo Option for Budget Travel
Great "self-service" hotel in a terrific location in Oslo. Just 2 blocks or so from everything. Only issue was that the room was very small and there wasn't really any place for 2 travelers to store their luggage or bathroom products.

Great location. Clean budget hotel
Room had what it needed, very efficient with minimal size needed for essentials. No closet or dresser to put clothes away but I was fine with that. Multiple lamps needed new bulbs but not a big deal. You have to go get your own towels each day. Excellent location.

Wouldn’t stay again
The hotel is mostly self-service, from the check-in onwards. There are people (or a person) sitting in a small office (the door was often closed and a doorbell had to be used sometimes), and the interactions with them were wonderful (for example, we asked for a fan and one was provided immediately). The room was not great, however - the floor was covered in what appeared to be an outdoor-type mat (possibly covering wood?), and was not swept completely clean. The window was broken so that when it opened it smashed into the wall (there was a large “hole” in the wall where it appears the open window has been slammed into and rested on for some time). The water in the showered was never warmer than lukewarm, at best. There was a luggage storage room, but it was self-service as well, which meant anyone had access to your luggage (there was a camera in the room), and it was pretty packed. The common areas were pretty clean, but there were a large number of flies, particularly by the food area. The price was right and the hotel was in a good location, but I would not choose to stay here again.

Wouldn't recommend if you want to feel safe
The hotel was a reasonable price and I chose to stay here as i was only spending one night in the city. However, I would say that this is the worst hotel I've ever stayed in in terms of customer care. Upon arrival, you are greeted with a number of kiosk screens into which you are required to enter a reservation number. Having booked through Hotels.com, I never received such a number - not via text, or email, including in my junk or spam inboxes. There's a bell to ring if you need assistance which should alleviate any worries, especially when your phone has severely reduced battery life, like my own did after a long day of travelling. However, after pressing this multiple times, no help appeared. I was fortunate that I was able to follow another traveller in through the key assisted door and locate a staff office to ask for the details I needed to check in, which I got but without any apologies or offers of support. My biggest issue however was with the safety I felt surrounding my room. The door did not lock from the inside properly and when I tried on the outside, it was not self locking. I raised this with the staff and was told that all rooms were like that and there was a delay in the locking function, I just had to give it time to self lock. At one point, I waited several minutes after leaving my room and my door still hadn't locked. Being a solo female traveller, this experience left me feeling completely unsafe, both in the room and when leaving.

The property is very centrally located to the Karl Johans gate main drag, and has a tram line that has a stop just outside. The rooms are very small, and without air-conditioning, and not all the windows open. During our summer stay, it was warm, and we could only open 1 window which allowed the street noise to come in, so we slept with earplugs. If you're prepared it shouldn't be a problem! Otherwise we loved the amenities (the kitchen, the lounge areas, the gaming) and check-in/check-out was easy.
