Scam
I booked a queen room with a queen bed. The bed was 140cms. The room is very, very small.
I asked for thin pillows, they only have thick pillows in the whole hotel, really?

Great hotel..check your door lock.
Great check-in. Helpful staff. An issue with our room that was looked after right away,. Good room cleaning/ linen . Terrific breakfast. All amenities either in room or available. One thing I would say is, when you leave your room check to make sure your door locks.

It was walkable distance to museums I wanted to visit, like the Norskfolkmuseum. Also a short walk to the Royal Palace, and Aker Brygge. I felt that it was overpriced compared to the room quality. That being said, the staff was excellent and helpful. No fault of theirs that Norway was an expensive travel destination, but I am very happy to have gone. If I went back I would definitely find the cheapest accommodation I could because I feel nothing was gained for having stayed in this room over any other.
