Outdated hotel in a good location

In over 4 years since my last visit it has got even more outdated. It could do with a refresh and a touch of style. All it needs is some fresh colours by adding colours on walls and statement soft furnishings. The duvet and in specially the pillows are tiny and really uncomfortable. It's not expensive at all to replace it. Bath towels are small for tiny people. It really needs a new carpet. Basically, it's basic and boring hotel. Furniture is ok. It need quality white lighting as it's so dark. Make sure the breakfast booking system is in English also - it's a pain having to book when is buffet. Buffet quality has gone down hill too. Lack of fruit juices & fruit & there was limited yogurt also. You can do much better.

I chose one of the small "cabin" rooms without a window, which was brilliant for keeping traffic noise and early-morning sunlight out. However, the walls seem to be quite thin, so things were not always silent. Monsoon showers are always good, and the breakfast buffet was extensive, but the centralised heating was still stuck on summer mode at the end of September, which made the room quite cold

Ok place for a one night stay, but there was no airflow which made the room hard to be in for long. The buffet was not good and the staff was awkward. But still an ok place for one night, I just wouldn't recommend paying for breakfast.

Positives: - The hotel is a super short walk from Stockholm Central Station. The hotel is surrounded by shops and restaurants, and it's about a 15-20 minute walk from the old town. - The staff were welcoming, helpful and polite. - The shower cubicle was surprisingly large. Two people could fit in there. Negatives - A standard double room is super small. It comes with a bed, but not additonal furniture like a chair or table. So your bed is where you'll be doing your packaging, unpacking, planning for the day, etc. - With the exception of a small bedside table and an underbed drawer, there isn't any storage space. So if you have a large suitcase, you'll be constantly stepping past it. The underned drawer had 3 hairs in it when I arrived. - Instead of storage, the bed frames have hanging areas (they provide a few coat hangers) and some coat hanger hooks. - Some of the pillows and towels had brownish round stains. - The hotel won't routinely clean your room. I belive this is due to their green policy. Fine, but this there should be more prominent signage. And the very least, a larger waste bin would be nice. - Lighting. Difficult to figure out the dimners. - Lifts. Super slow and confusing. The staff should have a separate service lift. - No iron in the room. Fine. But still, there is one ironing room with one iron (!) for the entire hotel. This can't be to expensive a situation to remedy. C'mon, guys.

Laundry service is an absolute scam, and there are no facilities to do it yourself. Significantly overpriced and unreliable. Staff were unable to explain the system and pricing, and it ended up costing 80 euro to wash some underwear and socks, and delivered a day late. Staff were understanding and gave a small discount. Room was small with no windows. Otherwise the property is fine and has a decent breakfast.
