Great location, small weird room
Pros:

Amazing location on the water front in the old town. Nice reception area with tea, coffee biscuits and fruit available until early evening. Good breakfast. Room was clean, quiet and ok to sleep in for a couple of nights but wouldn’t want to spend time there in the day.

Cons:

The room was small and odd. We had a twin room and one bed and the bathroom in the downstairs section had no window. The upstairs section had
The other bed and a window. No furniture to store clothes or anything else. Small bathroom that flooded a bit.

We had a very enjoyable stay, would recommend if the price is right.
Pros:

Great location in the heart of Gamla Stan, with a delicious breakfast each morning. Staff is super helpful and facilities are comfortable and clean. Loved the fluffy down comforters and slippers in the room, and coffee/tea in the lobby all day!

Cons:

The rate was high,especially since the 3rd person in our room slept on a small rollaway bed. Bathrooms are tiny with very little counter space, but the shower is nice with plenty of hot water.

Got what we paid for in essence, good for a 3-4 day stay overall.
Pros:

You get what you are asking for at the price. The room wasn't too big, enough for you to sleep in, but not really to spend much of your day in it. The breakfast had a nice variety to it. Location in unmatched, giving you both the option of the ferry and the subway.

Cons:

Hallways are really narrow and the staircase steep, not sure how someone with mobility issues would get around it. Breakfast area is a bit small and it was hard to find a place if we didn't get up early. Not a fan of wet bathrooms, one shower and the whole thing is soaked.
No safe in the room is a major issue for me.

Mycket bra läge, fin utsikt

Cons:

Vi var så nöjda, men blev besvikna när vi skulle checka ut, det visade sig att våra barn hade köpt en uppvaktning till vår bröllopsdag detta hade man glömt, vi fick en flaska vin, men det kändes inte okej. 🙁🙁🙁
