"Had the most amazing time there tonight because of the bartender named Ulrike, who went out of her way to ensure that I had everything I needed! Great drink recommendations and overall awesome vibez😎"

"A classic two dancefloors club with an underground vibe. Soundsystem in the smallest room is not so good. A pipe was partly falling in the main stage. Overall a good vibe. Bouncer let us keep our candies."
Adrian Bona
"Honestly the worst club I've been in in Oslo so far. Waited forever to get in. Then my friend got turned a way, despite not being drunk (which I am seeing a lot of people say happens here). The place feels very crammed, and not in a good way. Also the music is bad and way too loud, can barely talk to people even in areas quite far from the dance floor. They also had no space for my coat, AND on top of it all the cover fee was 150kr. I know of places in Oslo that are waaay better and have no cover fee. I feel so ripped off. I am NEVER going back there and gonna tell my friends not to go there."
