Average Hotel, some great, some bad! *

Away from the city, but conveniently right next to the exhibition grounds well serviced the general condition of Rica talk Hotel Stockholm. The train station is only a few minutes walk, every couple of minutes a train into the centre you can take (duration of the ride about ten minutes to the city center). The hotel itself is only a few years old, in good condition. Unfortunately there are a couple of small become redevelopped in the rooms (especially the wooden floors and the Cabinet have probably already seen better days), the furnishing is generally very friendly, the bathroom was very nice and the cleanliness was good. Positive is the extensive breakfast buffet to be highlighted: here is a continental to a typically Swedish breakfast, everything. The choice is big, the buffet is constantly replenished. On 25 December are also here and Sweden come to brunch. Unfortunately, there is one thing, the didn't work: the air conditioning in the rooms doesn't turn off (especially in the winter a good problem). There is apparently a heating/refrigeration area pre-ordained-if the thermostat below a certain value turned on the heating a, if it rises, the cooling. A manual operation is as good as impossible (and an equally)-the staff could not help us called, and only on our firm wish, to change the room, this was possible. In principle nothing speaks against air conditioning (you could not open the windows!), but the charge blew on our heads and so the bed, it was impossible, to sleep, without being sick the next day. In this case, is also the competence and service the staff to blame. But all in all a good hotel somewhat away from the centre, but with passable price/performance ratio.
