A stay of necessity, a pretty tired and unimpressive building, but rooms were relatively clean, washrooms fresh. Rooms felt small and cramped. The hotel was clean, and suitable for a stay on the road, but more could be done. Breakfast was ok.

We stayed only one night on our way to Oslo. We arrived late and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was small with bunk beds for our teens and a queen. It was tight but very clean and comfortable.

Check in 4 pm? And charging 20 € if you need to get in an hour early to dress for a wedding or party? It just seems cheap and disrespectful. Not a great start to a less than perfect stay.

Hotels are getting greedy and Scandic is no exception. Pushing in-checking to 4 PM and charging significantly, per room, to get into a room an hour early! That should be illegal! And closing breakfast at 10 AM on a Sunday morning? Shame on you! What happened to hospitality?

The room was well cleaned. In spite of that it was a superior room, there was only one chair in this 2-bed room. In the lobby there was only very low chairs/sofas so that an older/retired person had to stand and could not sit anywhere.
