to get started.

Good location for our trip. Easy access to public transportation. Really liked the location by Mathallen. Very convenient.

Wonderful rooms and breakfast buffet. Beautiful rooftop jacuzzi is a huge plus! Also great with free ferry transport to the center of Gothenburg.

Armando

Accommodations were very nice and the staff were helpful.

Kathleen

United States of America

Very convenient to Mathallen food hall and the fun Grünerløkka neighborhood

Claire

United States of America

Fantastic breakfast buffet and large dining room were a plus. We paid extra for a takeout box which we filled ourselves for picnic lunches since the weather was so nice. The decor is fun and eclectic. It is a little bit off the beaten path, but an easy walk to the efficient bus lines. A food market with restaurants and take out (high quality) is across the way. There is a waterfall and river a five minute walk away with a beautiful stand alone restaurant nearby that makes you feel like you are on the middle if nature! Would definitely stay there again and would definitely recommend. Fun artwork!

Good location away from the center of the city, a 25 minute walk. Lots of small restaurants. The breakfast was terrific and free. Checkin was easy.

Nice location next to Mathallen where they have have good food for decent prices (for Oslo standards). The centre is not too far by walking distance and the walk along the river is very pleasant. The room was minimalistic, but functional, clean and modern looking. Comfortable bed and quiet room - I'm a light sleeper and barely heard anything noise from outside the room.

Nice hotel, good location, close to the city center. Excellent breakfast. Cleaning services could be though improved, daily cleaning was very superficial, with days when the vacuum cleaner was not used for the floor and dust in some parts of the bathroom even since we arrived.

Would have been nice to have coffee and tea in the room. That's pretty much the only thing. Bed wasn't the most comfortable we've ever slept in.
Breakfast was good, though tables were hard to come by. Good location. All in all, decent hotel. Got a free coffee one afternoon, which was a nice touch.

The breakfast room was very crowded. It was not easy to get a seat and to keep it when being alone, as the staff was always removing plates on the table when I was standing up.
