Pros +
- It was next to McDonald's and Burger King and a large shopping outlet.
- Great location, just next to the highway E22, yet the rooms are located away from the highway, therefore there was no noise in the rooms. The beds were quite comfortable, it was possible to get a really good night's sleep. The breakfast is included in the stay as well as a free parking just outside the premises.
- The location and breakfast were perfect. The staff was very nice and friendly.
Cons -
- After staying for several days, I wished that the breakfast quality would be a bit more consistent - some days there was fresh bread available, which was very tasty, but other days, only one type of buns were available (which did not seemed to be freshly baked). Some days the cucumbers felt were sliced by an axe (i.e., very thick slices), other days the slices were nice and thin.For a period during breakfast hours, there were no clean dishes available (i.e., no glasses for juices or no bowls for cereal).I understand that this is probably an issue due to being understaffed during summer or just in general, but I just wanted to give some honest feedback.
- Not soundproof. Uncosiderate guests who think they are the only one in the whole world can be a problem (e.g. banging with the doors the whole night or chatting in the hallway in front of the room).
- Just a detail:Real butter (instead of Lätta margarine)for the breakfast was really missed, but not something the destroyed the overall picture.

Very basic but good enough. Fast internet.

The location just outside Kalmar by the motorway is perfect. The restaurant snd kiosk is a plus. The room was very pleasant.

Clean and cousy place near by highway. Nothing fancy but was exactly what we expected. Quiet room and few kilometers to castle.
Close was a gasolin station and Burger King. So not so elegant :).
Comfortable and clean. Food for breakfast was fine but not wonderful. Staff were helpful and polite
Felt like it needed a wee bit tlc but it was good value
Good location and affordable price. Shopping centre is nearby as well as the highway.
The place is in need of renovation, having kind of old dusty rooms.
The room was big, with comfortable chairs to relax in. Large bathroom too. Excellent breakfast, everything very fresh, with good selection. Friendly and helpful staff. There are walking paths for those that enjoy longer strolls.
Nothing negative at all.
Breakfast was continental plus some hot items. Plenty of choice. Bed was comfortable and location was good for us
Location was good for Oland and convenient for fast food. Breakfast was excellent.
Based on trading and retail estate.
Location is really good. Breakfast was OK. Good choice of food, but not everything was perfectly fresh.
The only thing we didn't like was the dinner at the hotel's restaurant. While French fries was tasty, meat and fish weren't really of good quality. Burger King which is in the same building is not much better. Fortunately, IKEA and few other places are just about the corner.
The location, good communications and close to IKEA. The rooms are simple but adequate.
The breakfast buffet was fair but not overwhelming. There was no vegan milk for the coffee.
Very good breakfast
very small tv and no mini fridge in the room
Breakfast
Staff did not respond to my message on 19 of September.
Near several eateries (ex. B king) and gas station. Even Ikea. Very spacious room.
Breakfast was meh..
The location is conveniently close to the bridge for Öland. Many stores and restaurants to choose from. Most of all, very happy that we could bring our pet.
Room was a bit stuffy. Could use better ventilation and cooling.
Quiet place but very near the shopping center and groceries. Short drive to the center.
super nice service and professional staff
everything things was good.but I miss my (coffee contener)
Easy stop,nice breakfast,friendly staff.
