This aparthotel has great potential, but my stay was less than ideal. As noted by other reviewers, the lack of communication from the host made things more challenging. The hotel is centrally located in Gamla Stan, but cars can’t drop you off directly due to zoning. Our cab dropped us 1/3 miles (500 meters) away, and we had to carry 3 large bags up cobblestone streets. Once familiar with the area, we found a closer spot (200m away), but a heads-up would have been helpful.
There’s no reception, which is fine, but we struggled to get in. We waited from 2 until 3 PM for another guest to let us in after our call via the Ring camera went unanswered. Only after trying a second camera inside, we finally checked in. The room was in good shape, but there were some issues: the bed consisted of two small beds pushed together, not a queen. The bedroom was cramped, barely enough room to move around. The blinds didn’t stay down, making the proximity to the neighboring building uncomfortable. Additionally, there was no air conditioning, and with temperatures around 22-25°C (71-77°F), we had to leave the windows open. However, outside noise from people, church bells and early trash collection made sleep difficult.
No room service during our 4-night stay, despite requesting fresh towels. We were also told we couldn't store our bags at the hotel. Overall, the aparthotel feels more like a side hustle. Clearer guest instructions via email could improve the experience.
