Budget Room Tjuvholmen

When I had a problem, the place didn’t respond at all—communication was impossible, and I was really disappointed!

“Read carefully...”

I had a pretty odd experience that made more sense after reading earlier reviews and the fine print. The room is part of someone’s apartment that’s rented out; the next room is identical, and the host lives in the third room. The host texted and called me before I arrived and was very polite when I met her. She handled check‑in and explained everything. The location is great, with Oslo’s main attractions nearby. The room and shared bathroom were clean, and there was coffee, tea, bedding, and towels in the room. The listing is a bit confusing—it says both private and shared bathrooms, but it’s actually shared. Some other details are off, like a minimart that’s actually a shop a short walk away. Outside your door is the apartment entrance, so you hear every movement of the neighboring room and the host. Even though the rules say to be respectful and quiet, you can hear everything. The host is very strict about the rules, which is fine, but they’re taped everywhere and mostly handwritten. Reminders like “do not touch” and “please leave the toilet clean” could be moved to a few pages in a welcome folder that the host could walk through. The handwritten signs cheapen the experience. For a room in someone’s apartment, the cost is way too high, even for Norway in peak season. It’s not their fault—they listed it and I booked it—but it’s still not good value for money.

The place is right by the harbor, so you can walk to all the main sights in Oslo except Holmenkollen. The room is tiny, located on the 8th floor of an apartment with no view or balcony, and the owner rents out two rooms of his own flat. The bathroom is shared with another guest, so be careful (read the fine print). The area is car‑restricted, and a possible underground parking spot costs about 60 € per day (also for motorcycles). Parking in Oslo is generally hard and expensive.

It’s in a very central spot and the person who handled us was lovely. It’s a bit pricey.
