"The location is fantastic for those who have kids, the world's most northern mcdonalds is across the street and there's also a shopping mall right across the street as well."

"Like other Scandics, one small square pillow/room, and a decorator pillow that has served its time. The room was big enough, and the highlight was the breakfast location --a huge and airy atrium that feels so pleasant, the breakfast doesn't even matter."
