La estancia en el Unity Hammarby Sjöstad de Estocolmo ha resultado ser una pesadilla. Lo único bueno de la estancia fue cuando abandoné el establecimiento tras hacer el check-out. ¡Nunca más! No se dejen asombrar por las fotografías oficiales que puedan ver publicadas de este Unity. Entras en la habitación el primer día y ya encuentras polvo en la habitación. Por cierto, la estancia solo ventila por una pequeña ventana de difícil acceso al lado de la cama, a la que solo puedes subir por un lado. Solo puedes abrir la ventana subiéndote a dicha cama, lo cual es peligroso especialmente si tienes problemas de movilidad o eres una persona mayor, pues la cama está alta además. Para más inri, no limpian la habitación en ocho días, y en ocho días no cambian las toallas, que son pequeñas y de pésima calidad. De todo esto no te informa la reserva que haces en Booking, ni tampoco el personal del Unity cuando llegas y haces el check-in. La suciedad se acumula en la habitación con el paso de los días y hasta aparecen bichos, voladores y no voladores. Hay suciedad hasta en el horno, que ya es el colmo. No recogen la basura, ni te dan bolsas de basura de repuesto para usar. Con el papel higiénico ocurre igual: se acaba y te tienes que espabilar, porque solo te encuentras al llegar dos rollos (uno ya empezado, por cierto). Hablas con la mujer de la limpieza para que por lo menos entre y te barra el suelo, y no lo hace. Hablas con recepción y te sueltan que son las normas del Unity, de lo cual te enteras en ese justo momento. El desayuno es pobre y tienes que tomar, sí o sí, lo siguiente: bocadillo de pan mal cocido, tres o cuatro trozos de melón/piña (no más), un yogur y un dulce. Nada más, no puedes repetir. Si tomas un segundo dulce, como me pasó, una empleada llamada Cecilia te pide de manera autoritaria que se lo devuelvas. El zumo de naranja se acaba antes de las 9.30 horas de la mañana. Entonces Cecilia echa en el dispensador un litro más de zumo y lógicamente van tres personas y se vuelve a agotar; así hasta el día siguiente. Hablando de Cecilia (habla español, es morena, de pelo rizado recogido en una coleta y con gafas), el último día de mi estancia ella estaba al lado de su compañero que me hizo el check-out. Cuando me vio se puso al otro extremo del mostrador a mirar el móvil porque era perfecta conocedora de lo disgustado que estaba. El chico me preguntó que qué tal la estancia y yo le respondí que había sido una decepción, un desastre, y que Cecilia podía explicarle los motivos, pues mi inglés no es fluido. Él se limitó a decir que no hablaba español y Cecilia, en lugar de acerc**** a echarnos una mano, le habló en sueco para que no me enterara de nada, salió del Unity y desde la ventana vi cómo montó en un patinete y huyó disparada calle abajo. Puede que acabara su turno (porque eran las 7 de la mañana), pero cuando se tiene un mínimo de profesionalidad y otro mínimo de buena fe te quedas a colaborar y a ayudar a los clientes que te pagan el sueldo

Great place to stay centrally in Stockholm. We Walker everywhere and did not take public transportation at all. Fantastic views from the room. We chose a superior room with private bathroom and everything lived up to our expectations. You just have to remember that this is a budget hotel and hostel. Very cheap for a central location in Stockholm. We visited in January, but the room was nice and warm. Bathroom was not heated, but they had placed an electric heater that we turned on while using the bathroom and that was just fine for us. The staff was lovely and allowed us to check in several hours early. We had only asked if we could leave our bag, but they had the room available. Probably possible due to low occupancy in January. I loved the unique stay and would definitely recommended. Would like to visit again in the spring or summertime.

Had the good fortune of spending the weekend in one of the hotel’s top floor suites (adjacent to the conference facility on the 11th floor). Full disclosure - I had pretty low expectations coming in due to an unfortunate previous stay at this hotel, but that changed completely the moment I stepped inside the suite. It was spacious, comfortable and luxurious with enormous floor-to-ceiling windows and a HUGE terrace facing the city and Globen. The HVAC system was the best I've experienced in a Swedish hotel (a far cry from the regular Nordic systems that keep you freezing in the winter and sweating in the summer), the water pressure amazing and the finishes stylish. That said, if I were to nitpick, it wasn’t perfect - outlets were almost non-existent, a couple of spotlights were out-of-order, there was no shower gel in the shower, the TV was too small for a room of this size and there was no privacy shade for the giant window between the master bath and the bedroom. The housekeeping staff had generally done a very thorough job, with the exception of a part of the terrace that contained a half-eaten orange from a previous guest. These minor issues did, however, not detract from the overall experience and this suite easily ranked amongst the best Swedish hotel suites I’ve stayed in. The hotel has an excellent location, friendly staff and reasonable pricing, easily earning them a full five stars for this stay. I can’t wait to come back to the same suite :)

The hotel is situated in a nice quiet place, it is close to a tram and bus station. The room was big, clean and the bed mattress extremely soft. The hotel has also a restaurant where you can have lunch and/or dinner. The food is very good. The staff was extremely helpful. I would totally recommend it and for sure will go back there.

First impression - when we got into the apartment we booked we were shocked to see it was much, much smaller than presented in the pictures - see attached presentation pics vs reality. We immediately went to the reception to show them the obvious difference, when one of the front desk officers, named Joel was quite deffensive and strongly rejected my entitled claim to get the proper apartment as per my booking. He said the pics in the presentation were made with wide angles, therefore we need to accept this is the correct room, no mistake was dine. I insisted upon the obvious but I had no one to talk to in order to fix my problem. Later on I made the same complaint to Trip.com - they tried to reason with Joel, but got the same nagative attitude. Joel saga doesn't end here, unfortunatelly... The whole administration of the building might be a bit control freak. Why? Because Guests can not have full control of their room. You can not adjust the air conditioning yourself - you have to call the reception to adjust the room temperature for you. You can not open any window - you have to ask the reception for the window handle, which guess what? It's only one window handle for all of the rooms in the building and each room gets the handle for 1 hour max or at least so it should be if Joel doesn't have other opinion about it. One evening, upon request, Joel gave me the handle and told me to open the windows quickly and give it back to him fast as others needs it now too. I was shocked of course. ***??? Where is my hour? How am I supposed to close the windows then after? Oh...I have to get downstairs to the reception and get it back so that I vould close my windows. BUT wait!! Joel remembered to fully read the post it his colleague gave him before coming upstairs to my room and saw my room number was last on the list and therefore I can keep the handle for a longer period time. He was doing me a big favor. That was his attitude like. Very unprofessional, cold and really wrong attitude for someone working in hospitality. I am afraid I had to react this time and asked him what is his problem really, as it looks like it has a particular problem with me and therefore to any of my requests to get the proper service and comfort I payed for. Joel's Lady colleague was much nicer and helpful. He should follow her example if he wants to stay in hospitality. I left with a bitter taste and very dissapointed with the whole experience at Biz Apartment Bromma due to this important details of my accomodation there. The Biz Apartment concept is pretty nice though overall, is quite new, the location is indeed a bit far from the city, but within easy reach by metro, which has the station right in front of the building. You need to change at Alvik for the green line towards city center. It is also easy to reach from Arlanda Airport by train up to Solna station and than by metro. Downstairs there is a huge supermarket where you can get anything you need for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The apartment is equiped with everything essential to prepare some meals ( microwave, electric stove, dishwasher, toaster, etc.) The bed was very comfortable. A bit too cold in the room. If I were to get the more spatious apartment as per my booking pics, my own window handle and proper room temperature I would book this place again, no doubt.

Overall, not too many complaints about the hostel. It was incredibly clean, offered a free towel for the shower, and had easy to use lockers. Social activities could be better compared to other hostels I’ve stayed at. Easy walk to both the central station and the city. Overall, I’d definitely stay again.

Clean, compact & comfortable. Walkable distance from central train station. Down comforters, scenic view from our large window, large screen tv, clean bathroom with shower, free Wi-fi, self check-in (we didn’t have a reservation so we had to check-in with a staff person). We had a “Compact Double” Room for 1,689,00 SEK (about $156 USD) and it was worth it!

The Scandic Upplandsgatan is a hotel with good location but this is way more expensive for the price we pay. The rooms are super small and after paying this much, there could have been a room size where you can at least have a chair to sit. The room doesn't have a chair to sit and there is hardly any space in the room besides the bed. Once you are in room, the only option you have is to lie down on the bed as there is absolutely no other facility and not a chair even where you can check a simple email on laptop. The rooms don't have cupboards for clothes hanging and you have to hang them on the walls around you. I find my stay super congested and was not comfortable at all. The only good thing is the location as it is located at a good location where it is accessible to go shopping and central station.

Although the room type is small, the facilities are complete and hygienic, the front desk service is professional and enthusiastic, the breakfast is rich and delicious, especially the hotel has convenient transportation, which is very convenient

Stayed 3 nights, family vacation. I do NOT recommend this hotel to others! Noise from street at night (street cleaning, trash truck etc several times, each night) so we slept terribly every night. Extra bed for 3rd person was very hard/uncomfortable. During breakfasts, the staff was hustling and making lots of noise by setting up for lunch (which started as late as 1.5 hrs after breakfast was over!) and did not allow guest to sit where they wanted in breakfast room - not a nice experience at all. Questionable room cleaning: no spare cups, cleaner said cups in rooms were only hand washed in bathroom sinks by cleaners, and they did not seem clean. We had to hunt down towels and toilet paper, plus they had forgotten to supply bed and towels for third person in room upon arrival. Front desk staff generally not so service minded + not understanding/interested in being helpful - did not allow us to eat a sandwich in the lobby before departure ”because the hotel has a restaurant” - which did not open until 3 hrs later(!) Note 1: Short opening hrs for restaurant by lobby. Note 2: They do not control which person removes what luggage from luggage storage, so anyone could take what they want. Note 3: Fridge in (our) room was super tiny, with depth as narrow as a water bottle. Note 4: They might not pay attention: When booking, I sent a request + a question to the hotel; request was not taken into account and I received no answer to question. Location: Good area to stay in for family trip if want to include shopping, easy access to public transportation, walking distance to Gamla Stan and more. But would recommend other hotel in area, not this one. Overall: Not the hotel experience I expected from photos, info on hotel web site and prize. Will not return, and recommend the hotel to reevaluate some of its routines!
