Good value for money
Good place to sleep in a lively area near the center. Not too comfortable, but for 1-2 nights stay it’s enough.

Rightly priced
The first impression of the building is that it’s old and outdated, but as you walk into the lobby, you realize that the hotel has gone through some nice rennovations, including a couple of ultra modern restaurants. However, the remodeling stopped at the hallways. Once we walked into our room it felt like we stepped back a few decades. The room was small and basic. The bathroom somehow managed to fit a shower, a sink and a toilet in a 3’x3’ room, but it came with its own floor squeegee, perhaps just in case you turn on the shower before you close the door. However, it was very reasnoably priced for Stockholm, and it’s in a good location. It’s very close to the hip SoFo area, it has a subway stop in the corner, and it’s a five minute walk to the Old Town.

Suitable Hotel
The hotel was well located in an area that gave good access to most attractions with a little walk. The rooms we booked were a bit small and although they were next to each other, there was no interconnecting door. We have 2 small children so leaving them in a room on their own was not an option as they do tend to wake at night so we had to have one adult and one child per each room. Fortunately, the hotel were good enough to give us another room which had twin beds and was bigger at no extra cost. The hotel was a bit noisy on the Saturday night as it close to a few restaurants and bars and a square where people meet, but other than that it was fine. Breakfast was great as well.
May not be suitable for a family with young children as the rooms are not set up as such
