Location can’t be beat! Everything was within a quick walk! Our room was lovely. Staff was great as well! Only downside were the elevators - didn’t seem to work as efficiently as we’d expect. We would stay here again - even with the walk up and down to the 6th floor where our room was.

Good as a budget hotel but not at the price charge

Decent hotel but paper thin walls and excessive eco friendly steps which are wholly unnecessary. The hotel also allow pets so not only can you hear movements next door and above but you also hear dogs barking.

Small room but clean and convenient

i was not used to such small rooms, but i guess this is the norm in Sweden. The room was tiny with no room to turn around when in the room with my wife. and just a small shelf for my clothes. Nevertheless, the room was comfortable and clean and in the heart o the city so close to everything including the trams, parks, canals and tourist boats. Breakfast was included and was generous and great. We had room near street which was very noisy on Friday night untiil 2:30 AM..

The hotel needs a refresher to be up to todays standard. Funky smell in the reception area and breakfast almost like sewage. Might be temporary, but I was there for 3 nights and it was there during all my stay.

Martin

Unusually quiet and spacy room, at a very central location. Sauna, breakfast, staff, everything was top notch. Baby slept like a log in the cot. Just to mention a "negative", although I gave a top score - and it's not really particular to this one - when it's below freezing outside, the automatic ventilation systems of these large hotels will suck every drop of moisture from your body so that you don't recognize your nose and lungs when you wake up. Countermeasures are needed.

Christer

Disliked: Staff & service

Good location, sub-par everything else.

Had to wait 30 minutes to check in due to a very senior lady getting signed up for their bonus program holding everyone up. Having some backup ready in the reception might have been a good idea... Had a silverfish in my bathroom on the 6th floor. Bartender on the bottom floor was awol, the other took a phone call and ignored us, when the first guy returned he went sour due to us paying separatly. Sounds from the street went right through as you might have expected from the location. Thats just about all it got going for itself, it's location. Soundprooing and service courses needed.

Convenient location. Hotel itself seems a bit old. Room was clean upon arrival, but as we would request cleaning, the sheets were never changed under our 8 days stay and the cleaner forgot her cleaning rags in the room more than once. The room itself is not designed with comfort in mind and decor is outdated for a hotel splat middle of Gothenburg. Breakfast was not bad, but always the same. All and all I would give this place a 7 out of 10.
