The hotel offers nice and clean rooms, albeit small, located just above a busy nightclub on Saturdays. The service is friendly and accommodating, especially the hostess in the restaurant. The location is excellent, close to the harbor and entertainment areas, although it can get noisy due to its central position preventing air conditioning. Dining options are satisfactory with a Swedish breakfast buffet. The facilities are adequate for a comfortable stay.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room I got was quite spacious, probably for disabled guests, but it was not the best value for money. The service I received was a bit lacking, especially when I needed help with the room phone. On the bright side, the location was excellent for my Ironman race, and the amenities like the sauna and pool were nice. The dining experience was a letdown due to the uninspired buffet, but on the bright side, the homemade pastries were a delight.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were below average with scratched dark wooden floors and a tatty bathroom, but luckily, my room was spacious. The service was inconsistent, with a lack of sympathy in some interactions. The location, however, was fantastic for exploring the town, and the dining experience had its ups and downs. The facilities were average overall.

My stay at the hotel was quite comfortable and enjoyable. The rooms, though partly renovated, were spacious with a living room and a fridge, featuring nice wood floors and new furniture. However, the air circulation in the room was a bit problematic, especially with the outside temperature being only 16C at night.

My stay at the hotel was quite a mixed experience. The rooms, while spacious, felt a bit dated with scratched dark wooden floors and a tatty bathroom. On the bright side, the staff were welcoming and helpful, recommending a nearby restaurant. However, there were some issues with misinformation about parking. The location was convenient, being close to the harbor and shopping areas, but the noise from a nearby nightclub was disturbing at night. The dining options were basic, but the proximity to the race start and expo was a plus. Overall, the facilities could use some renovation and upgrades.

The hotel had a mix of room sizes, some small, but mine was surprisingly spacious despite the cool night temperature. The service was genuinely nice and friendly, typical of smaller cities in Sweden. The location had its charm, feeling like Eastern Europe in the 90s, close to key attractions. The dining experience varied, with some highlights and low points.
