faulty showerdated rooms
the shower did not work properly , it was a real struggle to get the temperature right. the rooms were also quite dated , they definitely need some refurbishment. i asked the reception for some restaurant recommendations , but the places they suggested were not very good. this hotel felt more like a three-star than a four-star hotel.

the location was superb, right next to lilla torg, and restaurants were close. the room was spacious, and i really appreciated the breakfast, especially the staff, who were super helpful. i recommend it!
The shower wasn't working great. Water went everywhere in the bathroom. i think it could use a bit of an update to prevent the water from spreading.

I found the location quite convenient. The proximity to many restaurants was a plus. The breakfast offered a wide selection. I appreciated the early check-in and late check-out they provided.
The shower design caused water to spill everywhere. The room had some strange furniture. It needed a proper cleaning. I would not rate it as a 4-star experience.
