8/10 Good
"Overall, my stay was a good one. The gym is a bit small, and needs a little better cleanliness. The sauna is a very nice addition, just know it’s a communal mixed gender one. Location-wise, you really can’t beat it; short walk to the central train terminal, right next door to a subway station, and lots of food options in the area. The elevators were a bit small and usually filled up quickly. Breakfast was a huge bonus, so definitely recommend that you add that on! Would be nice if they had the common coffee drink maker where you can get lattes, espresso, etc.. You have to pay extra to get those drinks."

10/10 Excellent
"This is one fine hotel situated next to the Arlanda Express station. I stayed on 5th floor and the room overlooks a quiet courtyard. Bathroom was clean but small. There is a tub but no curtain or door makes for a wet and messy bathroom after shower. Room has a console table that functions as a desk. The lobby is large and has many chairs, tables, pool table and other games. The free breakfast exceeds my expectations. Price is not cheap but is very good value. Next time I go to Stockholm again I will stay here."

"The hotel is clean, modern, and centrally located. It is 300 meters away from the central station, and 10-15 mins walk to King's Garden and other popular locations. What impressed us the most was the hospitality of the hotel staff, especially Greg and Sofia at the front desk. The evening we arrived, the window of our room was not closable; they upgraded our room to a much more spacious room/suite, giving us an unforgettable experience."
