Comfort Hotel Xpress Youngstorget
"By arriving at 12.00 instead of 15.00 we were faced with paying an extra Krona 200 to use our room. The alternative was to leave our baggage by using a QR code and doing it ourselves. There was only One member of staff at reception and nearly always a queue to be served."
