Very stylish apartment and lovely neighborhood
Heavy food smell in the corridors and noise from bars late night

Excellent location but strange smell from the apartment and very bad smell from the bed. Definitely not 8 rating, seriously disappointed and won't stay again

Elevator not working. Rest is great

We had a lovely time here and would happy recommend if you are staying in Oslo. Please note - though the location is excellent and really close to the tram/bus station, it's still a little noisy at night. They've done an excellent job with the windows to quieten the noise, but if it's warm while you are there then you might need them open! Apartment does not come with fans for the bedrooms. I loved the decor and the massive fridge freezer. I think we struggled a bit having just one bathroom between four of us. Still, if you're got time in the morning then this is a great place to stay!

This is a very large apartment, close to transport and restaurants. It was easy to find.
4.3
Well placed appartment with good facilities such as kitchen, washing machine and good space. Very reasonable price for one week rent in summer high season
Unfortunately we had terrible sleeping quality due to 3 reasons:
- No ventilation or aircondition which meant for us on the top floor in the building temperature above 27 degrees in the rooms
- Terrible noise problems all through the night from the two bars and one big night club that are the closest neighbours in the building. We had the pleasure of both high music, screaming and singing from 23-05
- The beds are quite old/worn out and not suitable for people with any kind of back problems
I would recommend Bjørvika to install AC and upgrade the beds since that would allow for guests to keep windows closed and get sleep even if it the appartments are placed in the midle of night clubs.

On the whole we really like this street-facing third-floor apartment. Access through the app was seamless. Location is great, with public transport (tram and bus) two minutes away. The national library is across the street, and the neighorhood is very nice with some good restaurants. The apartment itself was very comfortable, consisting of a huge living area and a smaller bedroom. Kitchen is modern and well-appointed, especially if you want to do your own cooking. Washer in the bathroom is a big plus. Two shortcomings: (1) there is a club on the ground floor of the building and Saturday night was super loud well into the early morning. Sunday and Monday night was perfectly quiet--something to consider if your visit includes the weekend; (2) the bathroom shower stall leaked water out into the area by the WC.
4.3
High quality and very spacious apartment in a classy district. It has a great kitchen but is also right near some very good dining spots. One minute to public transport stops so access to city centre is very easy. We could easily live in this place!

Overall excellent stay.

Supert opphold. Veldig fin leilighet sentralt i Oslo

Had difficulty finding the apartment as the address from Hotels.com was for another one they own around the corner, did eventually get the correct address but 45 minutes we could have done without. Entry is via an app you download so if your not technical you might have problems. The cleaning could have been better, the floor was sticky. They have a quiet policy but doesn't apply to the restaurant below, so on Friday night we had noise until around 1p.m.. Plus points was the location and number of shops, supermarkets and restaurants close by and the transport links.
4.3
The apartment exceeded our expectations and certainly met our needs.
We had a bit of difficulty accessing the property with the App when we checked it but the problem was resolved within 30 minutes.
We also were without a TV for couple of nights. The problem was resolved by the delivery of a remote.
Unfortunately, on our last evening the elevator was not working. As we were walking down the poorly lit stairway my wife slipped and fell 2 or 3 steps. Fortunately nothing was broken, just a couple of bruises.
Also fortunately, the elevator was working by our check-out time avoiding the need to carry our luggage down 5 flights of stairs.
4.3
Very nice apartment but very close to club and laud on night on weekends. But i still recomend, very close to buses, trains, market and museums 🙂
4.3
Nice location, and pleasant stay. It is located close to a club, so there is some noise from the street and the club but it was ok for us.
4.3
A really cute apartment that was comfortable and functional. Near the Stolli tram and bus stop which made it very easy to get around Oslo. It’s right above a nightclub so bear that in mind!! That being said, still pretty quiet!
4.3
This apartment is spacious for a family or group. It is has easy access to public transportation right around the corner. There are restaurants below and a grocery store around the corner. It was clean and well cared for.
4.3
Great little apartment close to the city centre. Much closer than you think. Walkable but around the corner from the tram stop with really great links to the rest of the city and plenty of shops and restaurants nearby if you wanted to stay in that area.
Nicely decorated, well looked after and very warm! Easy to communicate with the rental company. The key to the apartment and Entry is via an app which you have to download beforehand.
One thing I will mention is that we could have slept much better due to the terrible pillows. They were so thin they may as well not have bothered with them at all and gave us all a bad night sleep.
4.3
Lose a star for noise pollution from local disco on first night. A shame as excellent in many ways and helpful when we left something on the room. Nice central location for activities and young vibe to local bars and restaurants as near uni. Not so good for oldies like us looking forward to a rest or families 🤔
4.3
The elevator wasn’t working and we carried luggage up to the 4th floor! The heating in living room didn’t work well either. Overall, not a pleasant stay and wouldn’t stay again.
4.3
The elevator was not working through out the entirety of our stay and absolutely no urgency or apology about the inconvenience. In addition, little or no service over the weekend.
4.3
The Van Der key app worked great, but there was a lot of communication about needing to pick up a physical key around the corner, which we did. But it turned out everything could be opened with the app so it's not clear why we needed to pick up the fob.
Otherwise, the place was nice, reasonably priced, and well-located. There are a couple of shops and restaurants nearby and the tram and train stations are not far.
4.3
Ok place to stay. Night clubs right next to the flat, which means its pretty loud on the weekends.
4.3
So pros about the property, right next to some restaurants, shops, grocery, bus and tram stop. Only about 0.7 miles walking to the National palace or national theatre and the main shopping street. The heated floors in the bathroom were nice, bathroom also had a combo washer/dryer which I didn’t know. The apartment building does have an elevator, not sure why the information page says it doesn’t, maybe in case it doesn’t work. There is only a heater, no AC if you go during the summer months.
Cons: getting in the key fob only works on the smaller, less obvious pad. Not the giant one that accesses the rest of the units or businesses. Yes, there are other businesses in the building but did not appear to be on the same level as the apartments. If you stay there on a Friday or a Saturday night, be warned the nightclub Dorsia (right next to the apartment) is open from 10pm to 3am. My apartment was on the fourth floor and faced the other side of the building but you can definitely hear the bass. You have to sort and empty your own garbage (Norway is big on proper recycling) but the larger garbage cans are outside of the building, around the corner and in an alley. It wasn’t obvious to me. The pillows seem to be made of the same stuff as the comforters so would flatten out within minutes. No neck support whatsoever.
4.3
Near the train station, which made the location very walkable.
4.3
Nice and confortable place
4.3
The beds are tribale , we couldn’t sleep . The beds are similar to boot camp or military base
4.3
The place was next to a night club with terrible loud noise into morning hours.
4.3
The property is in a good area of the city - walking distance to areas of interest and to the waterfront. Lots of places to eat nearby. And was close to major transportation hubs and train lines.
4.3
The area was nice, but the apartment was on a club. For the three nights I stayed thur, fri, sat) there was very high music till 3 am. No air conditioning. No people on site to help. The number I was given to call was answered from someone in Sweden who did not have any idea how to help me. This place was highly priced and one I would no recommend to anyone
4.3
Nice apartment centrally located, but the entry way and the area was trashy. Check in process was not good- took several calls to get an entry code.
4.3
I was disappointed that this apartment advertised with a view of the water front. There were multiple key pads to use but the customer support peopled did not know which one I had to use for the code to get in the front door.
4.3
Great location, very modern furniture/decor and plenty of space.
4.3
Perfecto lugar para alojarse. Situación muy buena, bien comunicado y lugar tranquilo, con tiendas, supermercados y restaurantes justo al lado. El apartamento, limpio, espacioso, con todo lo necesario y, además, muy bien decorado.
4.3
Very Good apartment, nothing fancy, no staff on site, everything functions well, no issues. Make sure to read emails to understand the access code process. Lots of amenities near by, close to the City Center. A little pricey for what it offers. Overall a positive experience.
4.3
The good: Property is modern, spacious and with nice art touches throughout. Great location.
The bad: We arrive in Oslo in the evening. Property said they'd give me a code for the door of the apartment by 3pm. Nothing. I emailed them and then I get a code like 1 hr latet. They clearly forgot. I get to the property at around 9pm and the code doesn't work. We are at the right apartment, using the right code and it doesn't work! Nobody answers since they closed already. There's no front desk. Is not a hotel is an apartment complex. My two kids are sleeping in the hallway next to our bags. Finally a good Samaritan (who needed to talk to management because he had equipment problems in his unit) finds an obscure phone number buried in the lease contract they send you and the maintenance guy answers his personal phone and remotely opens the door for us. After 2 hours! The property of course wouldn't take any responsibility and claimed they sent me the code on time and that it should work. They lied. So, great apartment, great location, AWFUL customer service.
4.3
I booked this apartment for a family break where I could also work, so internet connection was crucial. When I checked in, the wifi did not work. I called the management no fewer than nine times during my stay to see about fixing the wifi. I also emailed five times. In every one of those calls, I was told that they were “looking into it” and “addressing it”. However, no action was taken. No technician or staffer was sent over. No replacement router was offered. I was repeatedly told it would be fixed. It was not.
Also, the place stank. Literally. There was a heavy smell of beef and sweat in the hallways.
4.3
Nice location. Easy access to transportation.
4.3
We were misled by the name and we went to Bjorvika Apartments which was just next to the Central Station. Our train arrived at round 11 p.m. and the office was closed. We called the contact numbers of the security office. We spent quite sometime to figure out that the location should be Frognerveien 1, 3 metro stops away. On our way to metro station for Frognerveien, we met the security staff who was looking for us in the street. He told us not to worry and we could call him anytime for assistance. He was helpful and responsible.
4.3
We would have liked some printed or online information about the apartment (where to put garbage, how to use tv, internet code, etc), as well as a specific description of checkout requirements. We left things very clean but couldn’t imagine how to launder and replace linens etc on our travel schedule - it seemed like this was a requirement in the very sparse checkout info!. No need for human contact, but there was literally zero information about the apartment or the neighborhood or transportation options - nothing.
