Nice, lively area of Oslo close to the Opera with lots of restaurants and shops nearby. The apartment was nice and communication, although mostly AI-based, was efficient. The apartment was very hot and the pillows very large/high. Other than that, great value accomodation!

The location was only a 15 to 20 minute walk to most places which was great. Being able to do laundry is a big plus. Overall a clean unit. The balconies over looking the street were a plus. The beds were soooo comfortable. I had a great night sleep every night.

Apartment was spacious, had a kitchen and clothes washer/dryer. It is only 1 km from the city centre. There is a bus no 37 that leaves from the front of the hotel and arrives at central station in two stops. To get there from the airport, catch a train to central station then bus 37 to the hotel. There are shops and middle eastern restaurants close by. You need to know the exact address of the hotel in order to find it because there is only a small sign on a door facing the street

I was a bit surprised by the location. The whole Oslo felt safe to walk around, but not the area near by this hotel.

Once inside, the hotel is clean. The room is well maintained although it’s not well lit.

The bed is a bit small ; the kitchen doesn’t have a microwave.

Nope, not again

Arrived at 3:00 to find cleaning staff in the middle of their work. Not what one expects or wants after 24 hours of travel.

Had issue with getting into our flat on the last night. Electronic gate unlocked, electronic front door unlocked, apartment door would not. Definitely not what one desires after an evening in the rain. Online chat worked and worked at it before resolving after 10 minutes in the hall.

Would not choose to stay again after experience.

My experience at Bob W Gamle Oslo was incredibly disappointing. The major issue with the property is the restaurant located on the ground floor. Upon entering, after struggling with their website, I was greeted by the sight of food scattered at the entrance, along with empty food boxes. The smell was unbearable, reminiscent of a dirty kitchen.

Additionally, accessing the apartment was frustrating. It took me three to four attempts just to open the door. The beds and mattresses were subpar, and my back is still hurting from sleeping on them.

I will never stay at this property again.

Absolutely loved our stay at Bobs Place. All the attention to detail was impeccable. We’ve stayed in a lot of accommodation over the years and this was by far the best. Bobs place should be the benchmark for all other accommodation providers to live up to. We loved the extras like the Polaroid camera, coffee on arrival, yoga mats and how easy it was to contact Bob if we had any questions. Thanks so much for an amazing stay.

The apartment was very clean and sizable with kitchen and laundry machine. The furniture seemed adequate but I wouldn’t be surprised if it needed replacement soon. We were able to cook dinner and breakfast each day. We checked out as I write but left our luggage in designated secure area for pick up when we leave to catch the ferry to Copenhagen. You won’t be disappointed!

Bob W is not for me

I did not love my stay with Bob W in Oslo and I doubt, based on my experience, that I will ever stay at a Bob W anywhere. There is a sign in the apartment that reads that this is a boutique hotel. That is far from the truth.
My first issue was at the onset of my stay. I could not get into the property via my phone. I had to call to be let in. Luckily it was resolved. My second issue came when we opened the building door and our senses were overwhelmed by the restaurant odor (which carried into the bath towels, unfortunately). Third issue was the lighting in the apartment - it is really bad. You cannot see anything at night. The bedroom lighting was so bad that we had to move all our things into the hall in order to pack. This small hall had the best lighting (though the light switches did not work well so you never knew if you were going to get this light). The floor lamp and kitchen ceiling light were worthless. My next issue was safety. One afternoon there was a drunk walking by who was spitting on people thus I did not find comfort in the gate being held ajar with a rock for hours. The nonstick pans are scratched. The positives about this place is proximity to the train and the east side of town. Oslo’s public transportation is great. Bed and bedding were clean crisp and comfortable. Having a wash machine was a plus. Shower had nice pressure and the soap/shampoo/conditioner were good. This place is probably a great for the right person.

From its attractive Scandinavian style to its relatively prime location, high level of cleanliness, extreme cosiness, excellent condition of the apartment and great customer service, there is basically nothing I can pick on. I have nothing but full of praises for this accomm. Extremely pleased and satisfied and def value for money. Would highly recommend!

Lots of nice extras but entry too high tech for us

The apartment itself is great with lots of little touches to make for a comfortable stay. We did not end up using the kitchen or washing machine but they did sway us when booking as good to have the facilities if needed.

My main issue is the reliance on a mobile phone or other device that can communicate with gates and door to enter or exit. F you ran out of battery or had your device stolen there is no way in. I prefer a PIN code as less stress. I also did not have a phone only iPad without WhatsApp and this meant I relied on email and hotels.com message to gain details of apartment number. Felt quicker reply needed as was over 24 hours to receive one. Fortunately there is a number to call and I borrowed another persons phone to get details.

I should have set up contact and provided personal details earlier and this would have been less stressful but the reliance on a device to enter and leave would remain.


If that is not a deal breaker than recommend a stay.

Very compact apartment

Quite newly fitted out, and well equipped. Plenty of wardrobe space. Howeve no light over kitchen area so bit dark when using the oven and washing up. Some smells from the Turkish restaurant below. Need wifi to enter through 3 separate doors, but not to get out. Would not describe it as \"roomy\" as stated.

Lovely modern, spacious and well equipped apartment with everything you might need and some nice extras. Host was very communicative. Location felt slightly edgy to arrive at later at night with luggage (after midnight) but is otherwise a pleasant, bustling neighbourhood with plenty of amenities, and is walkable to the city centre and very close to the Bar Code district and waterfront.

Outstanding apartment

We loved our apartment which was the “biggy” and well worth the extra expense for a longer stay with two bedrooms, full kitchen and 2 sitting areas, bonus is the washer/dryer in the bathroom. We were on the 5th floor so above the noise and had the window open at night, the bedrooms are at the rear not street side so no noise. It is very secure, locked gate and door to access the building. Whilst the area will not suit everyone, it’s busy and “kebab land” no shortage of food, it’s multicultural and shabbier than the other sides of Oslo, it would be impossible to get such a great apartment at this price in a different area, the tube is 200m walk but we actually walked from the main train station off the airport train to the apartment in 15min with cases. The customer service from Bob is outstanding and when we got locked out it took 5min to re send our code, brilliant, definitely worth booking.

Great property! Clean, new, and fresh.
Easy access to the whole city very 7 min from the Tøyengata #37 bus stop out front or the subway station less than 5 minute walk away. Use the Oslo Ruter app to check the bus, Train, subway and other transportation methods. This location was great for our family of 4 for the week. Staff was very helpful and communicative.

Lovely place to stay. A lot of space for a family. Tidy with very comfortable beds to rest afte the day of walking. Fully equipped kitchen allows you to prepare food (nice grocery store just behind the crossroad). Good location, just a few minutes walk from city center (train statio and bus station). No reception, for me is a plus, you can just walk in using your sellphone.
