Great location for walking around the city center and along river. Friendly staff at front desk and in the restaurant. Restaurant not expensive for a good restaurant in Sweden. Parking on street or across the street in a parking garage.

I was there for about one week and the room was never cleaned, despite the fact that I asked them to do it every second day. I gave them a reminder on 3rd day, but still they didn't do it.

En natt räcker.

Bra övernattningshotell. Slitet och rätt tråkigt. Speciellt uteplatserna behöver en ordentlig uppfräschning.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Inte jättenöjd. Ganska slitet, obekväma sängar som delade på sig. Ingen hiss (bara 2 våningar men för den med mycket packning), mögel på det glutenfria brödet vid frukost, den varma maten vid frukost var långt ifrån varm. Personalen var väl inte otrevlig men absolut inte trevlig heller. Inte jättebra pris heller. Var väldigt varmt när vi var där så hade uppskattat någon typ av ventilation men verkade inte finnas. fanns en golvfläkt (som inte hjälpte så mycket). Bra var att det fanns gratis parkering jämte och man kunde ladda elbil.

Väldigt bra men saknar AC

Allt var kanon förutom faktumet att rummet inte hade någon AC. Det gör vistelsen näst intill outhärdlig om det är sommar utanför.
