This hotel is perfectly situated for a quick trip to Oslo. You will be able to walk everywhere as it is close to major sites. Also, this hotel has self-use laundry facilities which is great if you need to do laundry.
Loved the vision of the hotel and how it is set out, with the opportunity to network with fellow travellers. Even the lack of tv was not a problem as it gave me the chance to read and enjoy researching Oslo. The staff were available but had to look for them as they were not visible in the foyer area.
Very easy automated check in and check out. Although no staff was needed for help, instructions on how to contact one when in need would go a long way. The communal facilities were clean and usable. Great spot for a quick few days, not longer.

Liked: Cleanliness
Could smell smoke from neighbours even though non smoking policy. Great location with tram stop outside. Does get stuffy with no air conditioning or circulation
Loved Citybox! Hotel was clean and quiet and room was just the right size. Was traveling solo and never felt unsafe there. Was in a great location within walking distance to sites, food and shopping. Five minute walk to the train station. Highly recommend!!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Basic and dirty
The concept of this hotel is smart. However it would not accept any of our credit cards at the check in kiosk (3 of us). Ultimately it let us use one of my moms. The room was fithly. Surface was cleaned but walls crevices and bathroom were not clean. We cleaned it ourselves. Lobby was also dirty with over flowing garbages. Beds and línens were quite nice. Price was good but expect CLEAN. Area is sketchy near train station. Overall I would never stay there again.
Fantastic location, 5 mins to train station, opera house and main areas. Beautifully clean with super cosy beds. No TV in room which didn’t bother us. Never spoke to any staff as it is all self check in, luggage storage and check out. Easy to store luggage if needed. Little noisy on a Friday night outside and can hear people walking past room if talking. Lovely bakery/ restaurant downstairs.
If all you are concerned about is sleeping, this place is fine. But don’t expect to watch any television, because there isn’t one. And don’t expect to have a drink of water unless you get a paper cup from the coffee vending machine downstairs. Not a cup or glass in the room. I appreciate the affordability of this property, but a simple paper cup in the room would’ve been nice
