Allt var suveränt, det enda negativa var att man inte kunde öppna fönstret på toaletten för att få drag genom lägenheten då det blev väldigt fuktigt på toaletten efter dusch. Frukosten, service och hotellrummet var kanon.

This is a typically wonderful Scandic hotel with excellent service, great beds, and decadent breakfasts and is right across the road from the Central Train Station. It also has a good, though oddly painted dark, gym. The outside is safe but a lot of smokers and drunks hang out there.
