Super
Nice and cool temperature in the room â ideal for sleeping â despite outside temperatures of 30 C.
The locks use physical keys which can be a bit bulky. Hopefully they will be replaced by mobile keys in the future. The locks can also be heard opening and closing due to their sturdy design.

Knappt godkÀnt boende
Bodde pĂ„ vandrarhemmet. Det första vi möttes av var ett ostĂ€dat rum med gamla lakan och damm under sĂ€ngarna. Lövtunna vĂ€ggar, dvs EXTREMT lyhört. Vi hade dock tur med skötsamma grannar. Rummet luktade illa och det gick inte att öppna fönstret. Noll ventilation. PĂ„ morgonen gick vi till hotelldelen för att Ă€ta frukost. Ăven detta en besvikelse. Ăggröran innehöll minimalt med Ă€gg och var utblandad med nĂ„got, mjöl? Generellt sett deppig frukost och och stökig matsal (dĂ„ reste vi Ă€ndĂ„ sjĂ€lva med 3 barn under 5 Ă„r). Försök hitta ett annat stĂ€lle att övernatta pĂ„ Ă€r mitt rĂ„d!

Good facilities and breakfast
We stayed at the hostel. It worked well for us for two days visit in Astrid Lindgrens world. Not fancy in any way, but everything worked. Shared areas a bit crowded, but then again we didnât hang out inside. The outdoor areas are great. For small fees you can enter pool or play mini golf. We enjoyed both offers. We also had breakfast buffet, which was really great. The restaurant service at evening was quite slow and more smiley service would have been welcome. The a la carte dish with pepper sauce was over spiced with pepper. But I am sure it was just bad luck. Only disadvantage is bad public transport links to Astrid Lindgrens world. The buses are not regular and ended up walking 45 minutes each way to the park.

VÊr obs pÄ at du mÄ vaske rommet selv, alle dÞrer knirker, det er veldig lytt, det gÄr ikke Ä Äpne vinduet for frisk luft og du kan ikke justere ventilasjon selv.
