Очень непродуманное и трудное заселение. На тгй стороне телефона работник разговаривает на английском, хотя мы в Норвеги

Efficient , enorm basic, wel prima qua locatie.
Pros:

De locatie was prima.

Cons:

De faciliteiten waren erg basaal. 2 kopjes, 2 2 glazen en 2 borden.
Geen goed mes op opener. De stoelen waren waren doorgezeten.
Het was enorm gehorig.
Je kon ;de buren' bijna letterlijk horen.

Pizza mohosa
Pros:

El sitio era cómodo y tenía una estación de metro y una parada de bus al lado y nos atendieron un poco antes de la hora que ponía para el check in ya que llegamos antes.

Cons:

Nos costó encontrar el apartamento y encontramos una pizza mohosa en el microondas del mismo. Tuvimos que llamar en repetidas ocasiones tanto a Central City Apartments como a Booking para que al tercer día de nuestra estancia (de cuatro días que íbamos a estar) por fin quitasen la pizza y limpiasen el microondas que limpiaron muy por encima haciendo que tuviésemos 0 confianza en usarlo.
No solo fue molesto el cacho de pizza mohoso y el no poder usar el microondas que se encontraba encima de la mesa sobre la que teníamos que comer, si no que el trato del personal el cual nos mintió en más de una ocasión diciendo que limpiarían sin hacerlo.

Zentral, sauber, gute Betten, kleine zweckmäßige Küche mit Mikrowelle
Pros:

Die Lage ist super. 6 Minuten laufen zum subway - T bane und 2 Stationen zum Zentrum.
Kleine Küche war zweckmäßig auch mit Mikrowelle eingerichtet. Ma musste nichts zusätzlich kostenpflichtig ausleihen.
Internet funktionierte gut. Ich hatte unerwartet auch ein kleines Balkon abgetrennt zum großen Terrasse

Cons:

Es fehlten Kuchentücher, sodass das Geschirr nicht getrocknet werden könnte. Das Fernseher was verschwommen und hatte nur nationale Programme.

Pros:

Geras kambarių išplanavimas šešiaviečiame kambaryje

Cons:

Prastos kokybės ryšys susisiekiant įstaigoje esančiu telefonu su administratoriumi, tad buvo sunku susišnekėti. Jis kalbėjo tik angliškai, tad norvegiškai mokėjusi giminaitė negalėjo padėti susikalbėti.
Kambaryje esantys laiptai labai girgždėjo lipant.
Gaila, kad virtuvėje nebuvo trupučio kavos, arbatos, druskos, cukraus..

Loved Oslo - the apartment was a let down!
Pros:

Location - very close to T bane

Cons:

Cooker didn't work - had to use the microwave for breakfast and eat out every evening (an unexpected added expense)
No cloths for cleaning - no towels for drying dishes
Stains on the door window (looked like blood stains)
Glass panel in patio area cracked/smashed. Cigarette butts outside - patio area very small
No staff around to discuss any issues
Overall the apartment seemed dirty
Emailed the host regarding these issue, have not yet received a reply.

Ikke til å stole på
Pros:

Hva jeg syns om frokosten? Hvilken frokost. jeg tror ikke de har slikt.

Cons:

Ikke et menneske å se, bare et telefonnummer til en som antakelig sitter i india. De skulle ha parkering, det står det på appen ved booking. Jeg sendte de melding og presisterte at dette var viktig så de kunne komme med informasjon dersom det var noe jeg trengte å vite. De svarte ikke på det, og når jeg kom dit var det ledige plasser men jeg fikk ikke parkeringslapp til å ha i ruta fordi alt var fullt sa de. Han inderen jeg prata med var null interessert i å hjelpe. Jeg måtte finne en annen plass til bilen og betale for det selv. Utrolig dårlig service og rett og slett falsk informasjon. Lokke med parkering og så si nei etter at man har booket. Etter å ha booket så må man betale et depositum og de har en hel haug med regler som har ulike gebyr og hvis man ikke følger med på alle detaljer her så skal de nok karre til seg litt av det depositumet. virker som det er en del av forretningsideen dems.
