it´s near the centralstation, you can walk by feed or take the tram - only two stations. The Hostel is very clean, you can buy coffee and if you have questions, you can ask the friendly stuff.

Very basic but affordable accommodation in Oslo. Making your own bed wasn’t the best but if it brings costs down in this expensive city I will accept it. Staff very friendly for a busy hostel.
