Best kept secret in Stockholm!

Absolutely wonderful! It’s not often you get to stay in one of the original buildings in the heart of Gamla Stan. Well appointed place, very comfy! Beware the low doorways, tall people! Also note there’s no elevator. Carrying our big suitcases up the two flights up to top floor wasn’t bad at all though! We absolutely LOVED our stay, and will absolutely stay again!

Interesting property. Location was wonderful. Property needs renovation and cleaning. Old building for some experience but can be challenging due to its condition. If you are the person pursuing unique experience in old town, this may be okay but if you need clean rooms and good condition of the room, this is not for you. I was uncomfortable at the beginning but after two days, it can be another experience in old town. Pictures are deceiving though. Its condition would not the good as shown in the picture. Acting it is quite old and run down building and room.

The apartment is in great condition even if it is in an old building in the walkable area of the old town. Good location even if we had to walk a few blocks about 400 m with our luggage to the place because the stone streets are only pedestrian. No cars allowed.

It was in a fantastic location right in the middle of shopping, restaurants, and sites. We could walk anywhere we needed to get. It was also close to Central Station, so we could get to busses, subways, and taxis within a 20 minute walk. The bathroom was quite wonky. There was no separation between the shower and the rest of the bathroom, so the water was all over the floor in the bathroom. It also had a warning about using too much hot water, so we were afraid to take a shower that was very long for fear of running out. My husband would shower at night, and I showered in the morning and turned off the water between washing and rinsing. That seemed to work because we didn’t run out. Something that was frustrating was that we didn’t get a booklet with information in it upon arrival, so luckily we had an eSIM so we could check email because the WiFi password was sent in an email. If we hadn’t had the eSIM, we would not have been able to use the WiFi because we needed WiFi to get the WiFi password. Not super helpful. Overall, it was a pleasant stay and I would stay agin if we were in Stockholm.

I would recommend and return. Location is perfect for touring Stockholm, code access worked well. Apartment was well equipped, a couple of doors are quite low and bathroom could use a redesign but was fully functional. Great for us as tourists. Stairs were steep so not recommended for anyone with mobility issues.

Great location in old town. 5 mins walking everyw

Beautiful old apartment. Apparently the oldest apartment building in Stockholm. Comfortable with a lovely layout. Unfortunately full of spiderwebs, the bathroom is cramped, and we were only given 1 roll of toilet paper. The check in process was well managed. But bring your ear plugs. You will hear everything go by at night and early morning. Owners need to invest in modern double isolated windows. Other than that very nice apartment. The original doorways are still in place. Really adds a nice touch of how old the building is and how much smaller people were.

Perfect location to explore old town

This is an amazing location! The place was really cozy and great. The door ways are super short (just beware if you’re tall like me). I would’ve given this place a perfect rating however it is a bit noisy in this area. Fun fact this is the oldest house in Stockholm. With that comes thin walls so you can hear everyone above/below you and outside on the street. If you’re a light sleeper you’d struggle here but if not, it’s the perfect spot! You can walk everywhere you want from here and it’s close to public transportation

The property consists of 2 apartments. This is a review of the larger of the 2. Great apartment, right in the centre of the old town. It is an old character filled apartment. Some reviews have described it as noisy. It really isn’t. The windows are double glazed and even when open, it's the gentle hum of a city. This apartment has a washing machine and the kitchen is well stocked. Some of the electric sockets didn’t work, but as there are loads that's OK. The apartment was really clean. Highly recommended if you like older buildings and great locations.

Character apartment but so noisy!

This apartment is right in the middle of the old town, which is great for sightseeing. It is a historic building, the oldest in Stockholm apparently and that gives it a lot of character. The space is great, plenty of room for 2 adults and 2 teenagers. The kitchen is well equipped and the beds super comfy. Check in is super easy with a key code, no need to make arrangements to meet up with someone. What would prevent us from returning though is the noise, our sleep quality was terrible. People walk through the street next to the apartment day and night and it sounds like they are traipsing right through your bedroom. And the garbage truck that comes by every day at 6am makes the most incredible racket, impossible to sleep through. Shame, because outside of that we really liked this place.
