No reception desk, so arriving is impersonal (and needed a phone call to be texted entry details), but the property once inside is snug, nicely decorated and the room I stayed in was well appointed. I had a view over the front, facing the station, which was noisy in the early (Friday) evening but quietened down at a respectable time. I found the place charming. Loos and showers are communal but there are plenty. Breakfast was delicious - the bread in particular was some of the best I've ever had.

This is a hostel, not a hotel, and it's a grungy one. The room smelled of dust and decades old cigarette smoke. You could hear everything going on in the whole hostel. The rooms do not have bathrooms, those are shared. The furniture in the rolm was old and gross, not shabby chic, just shabby. The bed was ok, surprisingly. The only thing this place has going for it is that it's close to the train station. Did not try the breakfast since I just wanted to get out and away from the place.

Hello, we visited the room and turn back to car and booked another hotel. Room was extremely too warm. Children wouldn't sleep any minute there. We're very disappointed.

We stayed one night during a winter car vacation along the east coast. The hotel is central to shopping, restaurants, and lovely neighborhoods. Street parking was free from 7 pm to 9 am. The facility is steeped in history with charming furnishings in the common spaces and high quality beds and bedding in the room - the most comfortable of all the hotels during our trip. Warm fresh bread and lots of other delicious breakfast offerings. Coffee and tea in the common area as you wish. It’s a secure building and very quiet - in winter with windows closed. I can imagine hearing sounds of the city in the summer. There is a handy elevator to the hotel level, but there are at least 10 steps to get up to the elevator. We will return for a summer visit to this lovely and historic city.

Totally missed that this was not a "hotel", it is a a bed and breakfast with no toilet or shower in the room. Also an old building with very bad sound dampening between rooms and to the corridor. Without doubt I would add a few hundred SEK to get a hotel room instead.

Gammalt hus i fin stil men det verkar inte som att personalen bryr sig. Såg ingen anställd under min vistelse. Väldigt lyhört på rummen, man hör allt från rummen bredvid och gatan. Ta med öronproppar. Jag sov med musik i lurarna för att inte bli störd. Frukosten var rätt blek, lite yoghurt och bröd, några ägg. Det fanns ingen varm mat. Delat duschutrymme som kändes ofräscht. Det här stället kan bli så mkt bättre men tveksamt om ägarna vill göra det. Det bästa var väl kodlåsen på dörrarna. Smidigt
