good central location but tiny rooms
The hotel is well placed for Dam Square and all the major sights, but is basically just somewhere to rest your head. Not many amenities, and no bar as such, although you can drink in the restaurant (which closes at 11PM each night).
The rooms are very small, but clean and tidy, with very comfortable beds. The bathroom is meant to be an ultra modern wet room, but lack of a decent drain means the bathroom floods if you have a shower!
The staff were excellent, and very friendly/helpful.
On the whole, recommended if you don't want to spend too much time in your hotel room.

Good but small
I stayed there for 1 night only. The room was single room, but even so, the room was extremely small - hardly enough room to open my suitcase by the side of the bed. Bathroom was a very strange full on wetroom, where the water seemed as if it was going to spill into the bedroom (but thankfully did not).
The staff was really nice, including the night staff when I came back late in the evening. Breakfast was adequate, but very expensive. Didn't try the dinner there.
Overall, a good clean hotel with excellent service, located 30 paces from the Dam square, but wish the room was bigger.
