Perceived good value / 'prisvärt'
Cons:
Check-in/key issues and unclear entrance information

Categories

Cleanliness
7.8
Many guests praised fresh bathrooms and generally clean rooms, but several reports of stains on bedding and dirt around the breakfast drink station indicate mixed cleanliness standards.
Service
8.8
Staff repeatedly described as friendly and helpful, with responsive email contact; however there were notable check-in/key information issues and some guests missed a reception presence.
Location
9.2
Consistently praised as ideal for Löfbergs Arena/hockey and within walking distance to center — location is a clear strength.
Room Quality
8
Rooms often described as modern, quiet and with comfortable beds, but issues reported include noisy/lyhört rooms, doors that don’t close properly, lack of AC in some rooms and occasional maintenance problems (toilet flushing, worn areas).
Amenities
8.4
Good amenities noted (digital self check-in/out, parking, kettle, fridge); some rooms lacked AC and parking/entrance signage caused confusion, so amenities are solid but not flawless.
Value for Money
8.6
Several guests explicitly called the hotel 'prisvärt' and found parking affordable; given location and breakfast quality, perceived value is above average.
Food and Beverage
9
Breakfast repeatedly described as excellent — 'best breakfast' — though a number of reviews mention items running out, slow refills and occasional cleanliness issues at the drink station.
Overall Experience
7.4
Many guests would book again and recommend the hotel thanks to location and breakfast, but key failures (non-working keys, difficult entrance, intermittent breakfast/cleanliness issues) tempered overall satisfaction for some visitors.

Bra boende med trevlig och bra bemötande personal samt god frukost
Pros:

Sköna sängar, fräscha badrum, väldigt bra frukost

Cons:

Otydlig information vid incheckning om antal nycklar per rum.
Nycklar som inte fungerade vilket gjorde att vi missade början av konserten som vi skulle se. Ser gärna en kompensation för detta.

Prisvärt och bra boende.
Pros:

Rent och fräscht. Tyst och ombonat. Perfekt med digital ut- och incheckning. Fantastisk frukost på grannrestaurangen.

Cons:

Småsaker bara, otydligt med entrén. Allt fokus låg på info kring arenan. Ingång/utgång till frukosten stökade pga låst dörr.
