Room was good, duvets were warm. Getting to the room was a bit of a maze just the building is really cool. I did book a budget double room, and was given a room with a double bed rather than two singles, but there was a pull out bed on the chair in the room.

Get the Oslo card. We got the 72 hour pass which covered all transport, and all our visits except for the Opera House tour - and there are a lot of museums to see - we certainly got our moneys worth.
