The receptionist was extremely helpful and allowed us to check in 2 hours early, which was wonderful. The rooms are very spacious, and linens and towels are included. The bathrooms are also very clean.
United States of AmericaRooms were very clean and quite spacious. Linens and towels were included which was a bonus. Guest kitchen was also quite nice. The location was incredible -- looking out over Gammla Stan, absolutely beautiful
United States of AmericaLocation, gorgeous view across the harbor to the old town. Great location on a forested island minutes from museums, old town, transport and shopping. Very quiet location minutes away from city yet seems far. No bars, restaurants within hearing distance. Great all you can eat breakfast. Friendly staff. Comfy typical STF bed on an old ship, a unique experience at a great price on booking.com
United States of America- Location close to old town - Room very quiet (even though 16 people) - Breakfast not applicable - Lot of space between the beds
SwitzerlandThe location was nice and the room itself cozy. Considering that it had shared bathrooms, it was very nice to have a sink in the room.
FinlandViews from the room were wonderful, the old town and the water in front. Close to everything. However, I have a reservation here, see what I didn't like.
Swedengood value for money. the front desk is very helpful, very professional. I arrived early and I took a shower. yes it was complicated because I had to get a towel, get clothes from suitcase out of my locker, etc, but staff were very understanding and extremely helpful
