ApartDirect Gamla Stan II

superb accommodation for a city-trip to Stockholm, especially the Old Town. A highly recommended apartment with all facilities in a few steps, like Metzro, train-Station, ferry-boat to Djurgarden, pubs & restaurants

Our family of 5 used this apartment as our home base to explore Gamla Stan. The location is phenomenal. Right on one of the main streets with restaurants and shops. The apartment we received was not the same as the one in the pictures. The main bedroom was spacious and the bed was comfortable. The living room had a couch that turns into a double bed and a chair that turns into a single cot bed. Those beds were not as comfortable, as they tilt such that your feet are slightly higher than your head. So we ended up sleeping in the opposite direction which means you can't watch the TV. The TV only had a few channels and none in English. We simply casted Netflix to the TV and that was our entertainment in the evenings after dinner. The kitchen was fully equipped but the kitchen table was awkward to use for a family as it is too big for the space. We simply ate in the living room. The bathroom was spacious and bright although the location of the shower leaves the floor around the toilet a bit wet. The wifi signal was not great if you were not in the same room as the router, but the speed was good. Having the keyless entry codes was very handy as it allowed the family to come and go without the need for extra keys. The apartment is situated above a restaurant and at night this restaurant had live music till around 10 PM. We enjoyed the music but something to consider for others. All in all it had some rough edges but contrasted against the location it was a win for our family.
