the location was very close to the metro. a bus stop was right outside the hotel. i could easily walk to gamla stan over the bridge. breakfast had lots of choice and tasted delicious.

when i booked a room the description stated it would have a bathtub. upon arrival, the hotel only had rooms with bathtubs. the room assigned to me only had a shower. i was disappointed as a service was offered that was unavailable.
