“Citybox Oslo emphasizes practicality with its self-service model and minimalist aesthetic, making it a smart base for exploring Oslo's key attractions like the Opera House and Munch Museum. I appreciate the straightforward approach, particularly the proximity to Oslo Central Station, which simplifies airport connections; the unfussy, functional rooms suit travelers focused on experiencing the city rather than lingering in their hotel.

train station extra towels great location
the hotel is near the train station.. it's super easy to find, a big plus for travelers. i got extra towels with no problems. i also found the location ideal for reaching many restaurants and attractions.
the lack of immediate parking options nearby was a real problem. i ended up paying a hefty price for parking elsewhere, nearly doubling my expenses.

basic, but some issues

heater malfunction shower maintenance
the room was just not up to par. the heater barely worked, so it was pretty cold in there, and i saw this was a known issue, frustrating. also, the shower needed some serious fixing. the sink water wasn't very hot either.
