“There's a boldness to setting up a contemporary building for families in Gamle Oslo; I think it's more about utility than luxury. The location is close to the Oslo Central Station, which makes it functional, as is the playground for kids. As I see it, it's for travelers who value location and self-sufficiency, and I'd say it's best suited for short stays.”
