Tjuvholmen I, As Home

Aside from online, when I communicated with Jarle, our interactions were with Tatiana. She clearly explained all the functions for any devices in the apartment. She was very easy to reach via text message. The apartment was very clean and very quiet. The location near the harbor made it very convenient to the National Museum, the ferries and the tram #12.

There was nothing we did not like.

Great. The host met us in person and not only showed us to the apartment gave us detailed information about the property and location. Tatiana could not have been more helpful!

The apartment was great for location and facilities, the only slight issue was the shower which had a tendency to allow water to escape onto the bathroom floor during use. However a scraper was provided to help with this.

The representative of the host was wonderful - she met us at the apartment, showed us how everything worked, & was very easy to communicate with. The apartment is spacious, well-furnished, & comfortable.

The lighting wasn't as good as it could be - the existing lighting is a bit dim - a few more lamps with brighter bulbs would make the apartment brighter.

The host, Tatiana, is wonderful and incredibly accommodating. The location is superb. The apartment is spotless and quiet. While the kitchen is small, it has everything needed to cook real meals, including oil & vinegar & several spices. Bed is super comfy. Shower has good water pressure.

The artificial light needs improvement in every room. The light bulbs are all low wattage. We were there during the summer when the sun is out until late, so it wasn't bad during the day, but during the winter it would be frustrating day and night.

Excellent location, great apartment, helpful host.

Location, 2 comforters on the bed, kitchen equipment.

Booking.com says that there is air conditioning (which we didn’t need) and a gym and there wasn’t air conditioning or a gym.

Tatiana, the host, was great - one of the best we have experienced over the years. The location was great - convenient to walk to various attractions and lots of restaurants nearby.

One big issue we had was the lack of ventilation in the room - there were no fans and you could not get cross ventilation as the second set of windows was in the bedroom which overlooked the hallway so you had to keep the curtains closed. It was warm in Oslo and it was hard to sleep in the apartment given the lack of air movement. A few fans would have been a great help. The second issue was that the water from the shower would easily flow into the rest of the bathroom - there would be a few simple fixes to prevent this from happening.

Lovely location, TV with English shows was appreciated, Tatiana was very helpful. The apartment has everything we needed (washing machine, oven).

The front door to the apartment complex is very difficult to open (a hard push is required).
