We stayed in a family room, and it was decent but we were asked to pay an extra fee to get a room with a bathtub.

Slitet
Fräscht men ändå slitet. Tex ena hissen saknade ljus medan en annan var segare än alla andra hissar och tog lång tid på sig att stanna och åka iväg.

En hiss hade ingen eller knappt belysning, innertaket var borta och dörrarna öppnades innan hissen stannat. Kändes osäkert att åka. Trångt och känns lite slitet överlag, Scandic brukar ha bra kvalitet

Galet lång väntan för incheckning. Fint rum men alldeles för varm och gick inte att justera.
Bra och rikliga frukostalternativ.
Kanonläge vid avenyn.

Bokade ett familjerum för fyra. Service vid incheckning var bra. Sängarna var mycket slitna, både låter och känns som att fjädrarna har gjort sitt för längesen. Något som förstörde hela vår vistelse var den extrema lyhördheten mellan rummen. Grannrummet hade fest hela natten och gick och la sig 06:30 vilket innebar väldigt lite sömn för oss. Barnen vaknade av ljudet när det lät som att de höll på att möblera om hela rummet kl 04:30. Man hörde ordagrant vad som sades. Frukost okej. Mycket dammigt vid våningssängarna, övriga rummet okej.
