Gausdal Vacations from ￥363,080

If you use wash clothes bring disposable ones they don’t provide that “AC” is useless in the rooms ask for a fan to at least have some type of air circulating around to keep it cool Other then those 2 things everything else was good very convenient being so close to the train station breakfast was good many different options

The place was spacious as we had the two bedrooms. The apartment had natural cooling, which was ok as it wasn’t as hot while we were there and cooled pretty good with the windows opened. The kitchen was okay stocked, but didn’t have a few essentials like oven mitts and dish towel or cloth. Place was equipped with soaps and a few pods for dishwasher and one for washing machine. It does take some time to dry, but we hung some clothes up and they dried overnight. We were able to access key cards into building and room okay. It did take some time to hear back on the luggage room code, the messenging system seems automated, but we finally got through. There was bad reception in the basement as well. Overall a good stay. Location was close to grocery store and a relatively short 10 minutes walk from the train station. Some music at night, but wasn’t bad on weekdays. Sundays are quiet. The view was nice and so is the roof top patio.

There’s no reception. It’s all online checking. The noise from the street was very loud and I wasn’t able to fall asleep.

The good: I like the size of our room and the balcony. Beautiful view from the 11th floor! Very quiet. Breakfast was one of the best ever in a hotel. The bad: I didn’t like the duvet because it sounded like crinkle plastic inside when you moved and the toilet continued to run after flushing. The ugly: There were tiles broken off and missing from the wall in the bathroom. It was showing some wear and tear that’s easy to fix, a bit of deferred maintenance there. I noticed it but it didn’t bother me. Conclusion: Since the duvet was uncomfortable, I would NOT want to stay in that hotel again. That is because the quality of sleep is more important to me than all the good points.

Location is perfect if you have a train to catch. The centrally located next to the opera at the waterfront and a lot of dining. The rooms are very clean. I did not use any other amenity as I was there only for one night. This is a very high volume Hotel. They are always almost fully booked to the point where they might not have the time to maintain the property thoroughly. The first room I checked into there was an issue with the door. It was very hard to open, and the deadbolt did not key in. It looks like there was some damage to the door or some wear and tear. As a woman traveling alone, I didn't feel safe staying in the room. I went to the front desk and they automatically changed me to another room the door worked on the other room, but the light in the bathroom of the second room would not turn on. I had to go to the bathroom with the door open in order for it to have sufficient light. At this point, I could not change rooms anymore. It was late. I was checking out earlier on Sunday. I was also quite surprised to see that breakfast was not served on Sunday before 8 AM which I was told was quite common for Norway on a Sunday but again quite surprised that such a large hotel next to the train station would not have an earlier breakfast. The hotel would really benefit in investing more in regular maintenance. Perhaps they will do so in the off-season carpets are generally worn out in the hallways and there are a lot of small issues like that with building maintenance.
