Super

Nice and cool temperature in the room – ideal for sleeping – 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.

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 didn’t 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.

Jätte mysigt vandrarhem. Jag var där med min dotter efter en dag på Astrid Lindgrens värld. I området så fanns det en stor lekpark, äventyrsgolf perfekt när man har barn med sig. På morgonen åt vi hotellets frukost som man kunde köpa till och det fanns ett bra utbud att välja mellan. Om det blir Astrid Lindgrens värld nästa år också då kommer vi tillbaka.

Väldigt lyhörda rum, vaknade så fort grannarna gick i dörrarna eller pratade. Vi fick ett väldigt litet rum med våningssäng, inget bord eller stol vilket gjorde det väldigt svårt att vistas på rummet annat än att sova. Två toaletter med dusch på åtta rum var lite lite. Frukosten var dyr och inte värd 175kr.

Ett väldigt basic vandrarhem, helt fritt från den charm som många andra vandrarhem jag besökt ändå besitter! Det är 8 små rum i en avskärmad del av hotellet, troligen tidigare kontor. Vårt lilla rum bestod av en våningssäng, byrå, garderob och stol. Helt okej bara för att sova, men trist inredning och i korridoren stod udda möbler utplacerade som verkade ha blivit över. Rent överallt men toapapper tog slut och sopkorgar i badrum tömdes inte i den takt de fylldes på.

Trevligt och prisvärt vandrarhem. Rummet var litet men fungerade bra för en kortare vistelse. De gemensamma utrymmena var rena, fräscha och välskötta, och det fanns allt man behövde för att laga mat och umgås. Personalen var vänlig och hjälpsam. Ett bra alternativ för den som söker ett enkelt, rent och bekvämt boende.

Ingen spa og udsigt til parkering

Vi bookede det for at min datter og jeg kunne have en god aften spa efter en lang dag i Astrid Lindgrens verden, men der var ingen spa. Det blev vi ikke oplyst om inden bookingen og der var ingen kompensation for det. Receptionisten virkede ret ligeglad da vi stod og var ærgerlige over der ikke var spa alligevel, tilgengæld gav hun os et værelse med udsigt til parkeringspladsen. Øv jeg ville have ønske vi havde booket noget andet til vores mor-datter hygge i Sverige. Så det er alt for dyrt ift hvad hotellet tilbyder. Det ligger godt ved pladsen, men beliggenheden er det eneste gode ved hotellet.

Knappt godkänt boende

Bodde på vandrarhemmet. Det första vi möttes av var ett ostädat rum med gamla lakan och damm under sängarna. Lövtunna väggar, dvs EXTREMT lyhört. Vi hade dock tur med skötsamma grannar. Rummet luktade illa och det gick inte att öppna fönstret. Noll ventilation. På morgonen gick vi till hotelldelen för att äta frukost. Även detta en besvikelse. Äggröran innehöll minimalt med ägg och var utblandad med något, mjöl? Generellt sett deppig frukost och och stökig matsal (då reste vi ändå själva med 3 barn under 5 år). Försök hitta ett annat ställe att övernatta på är mitt råd!

Vær obs på at du må vaske rommet selv, alle dører knirker, det er veldig lytt, det går ikke å åpne vinduet for frisk luft og du kan ikke justere ventilasjon selv.

Hyvä sijainti lähellä Astrid Lindgrenin maailmaa

Varasimme 4hengen huoneen hostellista yhdeksi yöksi, kun kävimme Astrid Lindgrenin maailmassa. Varasin huoneen vain viikkoa ennen, joten oli vain 1 huone jäljellä. Hostelli on hotellin yhteydessä ja sijaintia voin suositella etenkin lapsiperheille! Astrid Lindgrenin maailma on noin 4km päässä ja hotellin vieressä on uimapaikka (maksaa erikseen, esim 390kr koko perhe/koko lomailun ajan!) ja etenkin lapset nauttivat siitä kovasti. Hostelli itsessään oli ihan ok, huone perussiisti, mutta patjat, peitot ja tyynyt vähän kulahtaneita. Meillä oli omat petivaatteet mukana. Ostimme myös hotelliaamupalan, joka oli monipuolinen mutta ensi kerralla valmistaisin itse aamupalan hostellin keittiössä. Mutta loppujen lopuksi voin lämpimästi suositella tätä paikkaa, jos menee Astrid Lindgrenin maailmaan.

Vi bodde på Vandrarhemmet som var väldigt trevligt! Bra sängar, rena utrymmen och lagom stort. Vi åt på hotellets restaurang på kvällen, maten var helt okej men service var näst intill obefintlig. Tror dock det berodde på att det var mycket ”sommarpersonal” mitt i semestern.
