Great for pets but old and even dirty
Pros:

Perfectly located in the town centre. Staff were friendly and breakfast good. Really top choice for travellers with pets: in the room they put out feeding bowls and even a dog snack before our arrival!

Cons:

The hotel is old and it really shows, the quality and current state of the building really doesn't justify the premium price. Even worse, our room was not properly cleaned before arrival and there are no excuses for that.

Pros:

Frukostpåsen var kanon! Och gulliga tjejer i receptionen!

Cons:

Ventilationen! Pga att det inte fanns någon bra ventilation eller AC på rummet så var rummet supervarmt pga varm sommardag och var tvungen att ha öppet fönster och då med festande folk nedanför så lät det mkt…

Duger som övernattning. Vill man ha en hotell känsla ska man då hitta ett annat hotell. Slitet hotel
Pros:

Frukosten var det enda som var riktigt bra.

Cons:

bastu och gymmet är ju under all kritik. Hotellet är fruktansvärt slitet. Det kanske är så med tidens tand men jag förväntar mig mycket mer utav ett Scandic hotell rummet var heller inte kul. Utsikten kändes som att man var tillbaks under kalla krigets dagar var inte fin miljö runtikring. Skulle verkligen inte rekommendera om man vill ha en mysig hotellnatt att stanna vid det här hotellet utan ser det mer som ett vandrarhem för att kunna sova.
