Hotel Birger Jarl
We really enjoyed our stay here. The beds were so comfy, the staff were good and accommodating whenever we needed something and the room was nice however the shower was faulty and the lifts were constantly out of order and when they weren’t, they felt quite sketchy and unsafe which made things difficult ...
