Great, clean hotel and excellent location. Friendly staff. Some room for improvement.

✓ The location of the hotel was excellent. It was near public transportation (ie. train station, bus stops), and the walk to the central area with all the shops and restaurants was around 15 mins. Room was very clean and spacious. I asked to be placed in a room with non carpet flooring, and my request was met. Finally a hotel that provides you with enough towels. I prefer to have a separate towel for my body, face and hands, and there were two sets of each. And after the daily housekeeping, I was provided with a few extra towels. The soaps also smelled delicious. I was provided with hand soap, hand lotion, shower gel, shampoo and conditioner, all in easily accessible pump bottles. I had brought my own shower gel with me, but came to the conclusion that their Goji berry shower gel was far more better. Breakfast was a regular breakfast that you expect in Nordic countries; bread, cheese, yogurt, porridge, smoothies etc. And there were also options that were vegan, dairy free and gluten free, which I found thoughtful and necessary. The options for drink and food were vast - I expect every visitor can find something to eat.

✗ Showering was very difficult; the water pressure on the shower head was nonexistent. A shower that would have taken me 5 mins at home, took me at least twice as long, and rinsing off was almost impossible. Not sure if that was just a faulty shower head, but it was a disappointment. Room was located on the 4th floor, above the bar - which plays music until 11pm (or was it even 12am?). Trying to fall asleep was next to impossible; I had to wear headphones, but I could still hear the bass through them. The lighting in the room was rather insufficient. There was a desk with a lamp above it, however the lamp wouldn’t stay in place if you tried to set it into a certain position, hence you couldn’t focus the light onto your target area. Found that inconvenient. Also there was no overhead lighting, so the majority of the room’s light would come from the two bedside lamps; which were bright, but I found them troublesome to use. Lastly, I would’ve wished there was another outlet next to the bed. It isn’t the end of the world, but would have made my stay more enjoyable.

Very good

✓ Good location right by the railway station, friendly staff, clean.

✗ Interiors were a bit dated and the combined bath/bedroom was an interesting design choice.

Well located and modern hotel.

✓ Nice looking hotel with a good restaurant. Well located near train station and quite in the rooms. Good Wifi.

✗ Menu a bit limited in restaurant, if you want to eat there more than 2 nights. Gym a bit small and with no music or A/C

Perfect location. Good bargain

✓ Lovely building, large room, great breakfast, quiet by night, perfect location.

✗ Strange because the building looks recent enough but the design of the rooms and especially the bathroom with its weird kitchen feeling, gives a somewhat old atmosphere. Cleanliness is far from perfect.
