Frommer's Review
As "Thons" go, this is the low man on the totem pole, but it's a recommendable choice if its siblings (above) are fully booked. We've seen bigger and better hotels in Oslo, but very few that offer comparable comfort at such affordable rates. In an excellent location in the center of the city, this unpretentious hotel never claims to be more than it is. Built in 1952, it has been modernized and much improved over the years. The color-coordinated guest rooms are traditional in style and well furnished and maintained, with small but adequate bathrooms containing tub/showers. From May until September 1, weekend rates are granted only to those who make reservations less than 48 hours before arrival.
Facilities:
Coffee shop/bar; laundry service; dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms; rooms for those w/limited mobility

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
