I stayed here two nights in a room facing the street. Ok, this place is not for people who want to have a peaceful romantic vacation. Although the street is noisy and there are people all the time, the location is perfect, the prices are affordable (I'd rather say cheap in Oslo,) and the whole place is very lively. There's... more

Stayed in room 513 last week, a standard room with kitchenette next to the lift shaft. At the time of booking I requested a quiet room at the back after reading reviews here, and several weeks before arrival informed them of late afternoon arrival as they request and reminded them of my request. On check-in assured all ok, and paid... more

My husband and I stayed here for about week in late September, early October while visiting my daughter at the University. We found the price right, the beds super comfy, the room clean. We stayed in their smallest/cheapest rooms but it had a huge ample closet to put everything out of the way in. The bathrooms and showers were very... more

Stayed at the Cochs Pensjonat for 4 nights from 26th December 2007 with my wife, brother and sister-in-law. Me and my brother had a value room which was very basic (2 beds, table with two chairs, a sink and a built in wardrobe). The bathroom facilities were shared in the corridor, but were very very clean and very usable. Our... more

If you can sleep amidst traffic noise, police sirens, people talking and yelling in the middle of the night, cars honking, heavy drumbeats that make your bed vibrate, or, if you don't plan on going to bed till 3:30 in the morning, then this is a clean place to stay in. Personally, I will stay away from this hotel. I... more

We stayed at Cochs for four nights, from 13th September 2007. It was everything it claimed to be, as far as we were concerned. We chose one of their best rooms, which had tv, en-suite bathroom, cooking facilities, and a fridge. The rooms were clean, the beds comfortable (no gritty sheets as per previous reviewer!), and our towels were changed... more

I just returned from a trip to Norway and we stayed at Cochs for two nights. The location is perfect, very close to the main street and harbor. We did get the largest of the rooms and it was quite good compared to some other european hotels. It was clean wich is the most important thing. The price was great... more

My wife and I stayed here 2 nights on a long weekend from London. The staff were courteous, prompt and helpful in arranging my booking and I was pleasantly surprised (some hostel type accommodations aren't that quick to respond). The hostel didn't have exactly what we wanted (3 successive nights, double room) so they put us in a triple for... more

This is a very reasonably priced Hostel and very clean and well located. It is worth booking one with a small kitchenette. Nearby are good restaurants and small 7/11 shops to meet your breakfast needs. If you want to visit Oslo it is in a good location and you can walk easily down to the main streets. It might be... more
