The service was very friendly and helpful, but the dining options could be improved. The location is convenient, being close to the main square and shopping areas. The facilities were decent, but with some room for enhancement.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms lacked a bit of ventilation since they are situated in the basement of the building, in a dark room without windows.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The room was basic but comfortable, facing the goods intake to the department store opposite. It was clean and well-equipped with tea and coffee making facilities available and a very comfortable bed. The service was their greatest asset as they even prepped us warm tea every morning. The location, although somewhat dull, was very good for both tourist and business visits. The dining experience was satisfactory with a basic Swedish standard breakfast. The facilities offered were adequate.
I stayed at the hotel on Nygatan, a perfect location close to the main square and plenty of shopping. The rooms were clean and pleasant, although facing the goods intake of the department store across. The service was friendly and helpful, even with a typical Swedish touch of not being the most pleasant, and the facilities were satisfactory. However, there's room for improvement in the dining options.
