If the range was out of 10. I give it 4||The Westin Ivy Hotel, Sweden - 4/10||I recently stayed at this hotel when I needed accommodation in the area, and unfortunately, I cannot recommend it to other travelers. While it's marketed as family-friendly, my experience fell far short of expectations.||The most disappointing aspect was the children's facilities, which were shockingly substandard for what we paid. The amenities felt more like what you'd find in a basic budget establishment rather than what families deserve. The breakfast only till 0930am which is quite early (especially considering family stays).|On the positive side, I found the staff to be pleasant and professional, the sheets were clean, and there was reliable hot water. These basic standards were met, which kept this from being a complete disaster.||However, given the price I paid versus what was delivered, this hotel represents not great value.

Pros: -The staff was helpful and understanding -The breakfast is tasty -You can get a quick hot sandwich snack
Cons: -The rooms initially assigned to us were not cleaned. Trash everywhere, used glasses on the table, used sheets, dirty bathroom. We complained and got new rooms, but it wasnt off to a great start.

-The internet is an open network and unprotected. Anyone malicious enough connected to that same network can spy on your device easily, and grab any credit card information or passwords you type in while using that wifi.
-the hotel room feels too crowded with furniture
-there is no shower door and even the glass wall thats there to prevent splatter has a gap under it, so get ready to flood your bathroom every time you shower.
-never waited so long for elevators in my...
Read moreThe design and the rooms are fine. Cleaning of the rooms 👍.|But the beds especially the top madras was poor. |The breakfast is served, at a corner to hall of the horse race track. Coffee cups and cutlery are dirty. Employees don’t react when we tell them.|And the food plain and very boring.||We stayed there during the Gothic cup. Big mistake. The hotel was not geared for that many guests. We had to eat breakfast with many, many and loud football camp kids. |After the first disaster breakfast, we asked the receptionist when we could go and have breakfast the next morning…..hoping we could eat without feeling we were in a school dining hall. So to do that we had to get up eat in order to find a decent...
