Newly renovated facilities and staff that was very helpful and accomodating. The man at the reception went the extra mile and helped us book transport to get to the bus station.

The room was infested with bedbugs, with over 60 bites. I later contacted the hotel by phone, and the staff acknowledged the presence of bedbugs but said they weren't dangerous and were common in many hotels. They denied any responsibility and instead suggested the guest file a claim with their home insurance.

The accommodation was very nice, especially for the price! The shared kitchen was very big, and they also had laundry machines that we could use. The shared bathrooms where clean and the location was nice.

Location, location, location. Their biggest asset is that you walk straight out to historic Sweden. Surrounded by beautiful nature and gorgeous views.
