The guest house was great, we stayed for two nights and we really had a great time: the room and the bathroom were pretty clean, and so was the kitchen. The house is located in a great block, very calm and close to the city center: we walked there and it is about a 30mins walk, but you also have loads of public transportation that you can use. The villa is close (20mins walk) to skøyen station, which takes you to both Torp and Oslo airport. There's check in/check out but the welcoming message that you receive at your arrival is very clear and makes it very easy. Bonus points for the cutest cat in the world that welcomed us on our arrival.

I'd just like to point out that I would change the locks of the bathrooms and rooms, cause they made bit of a noise especially at night. No other problem

We booked a room with my friend and expected a place like two bedrooms in a dorm. But instead we booked a full room for us at the same price with two beds in a dorm. It was a cosy and big room with a kettle and microwave 😊 Also, in the kitchen, there was everything to use from the pan, pot, glasses, salt, sugar etc. Bathrooms and kitchen were averagely clean. 👍🏽

The only negative side is the big bathroom. There were two bathrooms but in one of them the shower cabin's glass door couldn't close and they had removed a part of it. Also the shower head couldn't stay fixed. Still the other bathroom was working well.

This place has a cosy vibe, cute cat. We came here on a snowing day (-15°). We came earlier than the check-in hour to store our luggages and it took a long time waiting for host to reply our message (He said just come and didn't give us a password for the entrace door 💀). So we had to wait for a while and luckily there was a man living under floor let us in his home (cute guy) to wait. The room was cold at first because some one turned off the actomat (At that moment I thought I would become Elsa). But then it was warm at night thank for heater. The kitchen is really good. But It was cold, too. The lady said maybe someone opened the window because It never cold like that. Anyway, I love this place, the house and the room. I felt like Elsa here ❤️

Villa Internationals combined the best of what a small hostel in the countryside might offer, in terms of opportunities to connect with other guests around the wooden table in the cosy self-cooking kitchen, and the welcoming warmth of a visit in a family home, with childhood memories and an absolutely unique style. The garden is beautiful, and must be a great place to spend a summer evening, and the frequent buses in to town are only a short walk away.

The wi-fi was very unstable during my visit, but I understand this is something they are working on, and the villa is unfortunately not accessible for visitors with mobility issues.

The villa is a green retro osasis hidden in the midst of apartment buildings. I was impressed by the amount of books and antique details in the house (I sketched a few), and I didn't feel like going out from this sanctuary. There was, for example, a 1929 German edition of "All Quiet on the Western Front" on my table. I had the pleasure to meet the owner who was very friendly and hospitable giving me a tour around the house. He was happy to hear that his villa was my first option in the booking site, which turned out to be the best. I skipped the options of Stockholm and Copenhagen to stay in this place.

No complaints! I just wondered where to hang my damp towel so it won't stain the retro chairs and sofa.

It was a life time experience for us in Oslo. The host was excellent. Even if we triggered the fire alarm while cooking, the host took it easy and responded in a cute way. The location was near to a market and alcohol store. Also, the public transportation was real close and if u are interested in nature walks, the best locations are in 2-3 kms far. The rooms and kitchen were pretty specious and cozy.

Nothing particular. We had some problems with their cute cat. She tried to enter our room a few times.

The house is very cool, I like the idea of it being a house opened up to guests, and it was an amazing design. Very homely. Has a kitchen and all the facilities you need. We only stayed one night but was nice and restful. It’s in a lovely area with all the embassies and consulates, and near the marina. Shop is a wee walk away, and there are buses from the centre to nearby the house. We think we spoke to the owner the next morning, and he was nice, but other than that was all self check in/out.

It is quite far away, but there are good transport links there. Wouldn’t recommend if you’re travelling solo and wanting to meet people.

It is just a beautiful house that has been turned into accommodation. The rooms were very comfortable with great decoration, and then the location was fantastic in terms of getting to Bogdoy quickly, or going into the city the other way. The value is then really good, as you don't pay for a reception but the hosts gave clear instructions how to enter the room, and so you also pay less than for a hotel with likely much less charm to it as well.

Nothing that I didn't like.

Old mansion in the middle of the city, repurposed rooms for shared hostel feel. Old antiques in the rooms. Charming look and feel. Got a very good price in center of Oslo with last minute deal. Deep savings.

Draft due to older building, room was not set up for the right amount of guests, had to find linen myself. No reception as they are renting out a mansion as a "large home, not hotel". Which means your expecations of service should be lower. No staff on site. Use a large family kitchen and very small bathrooms among multiple rooms.

The instructions to enter the building, although complicated when you're tired, were very clear. The room contained everything we needed for just a good night's sleep. I also really appreciated that the host made sure to put us in a room with two separate beds since I had mentioned I was coming with a friend, not a partner.

The only minor detail of critique was that the doorknob on the outside of our room door was not attached so it kept falling off. But that had no impact on the quality of our stay.
