Location can’t be beat! Everything was within a quick walk! Our room was lovely. Staff was great as well! Only downside were the elevators - didn’t seem to work as efficiently as we’d expect. We would stay here again - even with the walk up and down to the 6th floor where our room was.

Small room but clean and convenient

i was not used to such small rooms, but i guess this is the norm in Sweden. The room was tiny with no room to turn around when in the room with my wife. and just a small shelf for my clothes. Nevertheless, the room was comfortable and clean and in the heart o the city so close to everything including the trams, parks, canals and tourist boats. Breakfast was included and was generous and great. We had room near street which was very noisy on Friday night untiil 2:30 AM..

Good as a budget hotel but not at the price charge

Decent hotel but paper thin walls and excessive eco friendly steps which are wholly unnecessary. The hotel also allow pets so not only can you hear movements next door and above but you also hear dogs barking.

Missing info on room upon arrival. In the family rooms you need to setup third bed yourself, which is not ok. The room doesn’t get cleaned if you don’t ask for it, and during a three night stay the sheets was not changed, we had expected that
