Quality Hotel™ Ekoxen

Bad staff treating customers like garbage. Approached by a member of hotel named Khidir and been told to get out of hotel property for sitting and smoking outside the property. Been shouted at rudely saying - “get out! I give you 2 minutes and i call the police!” I travel and live in hotels for past 15 years… never had anything like this!!! Rotten staff members rot the name of good hotel. Turns out Khidir is a manager…such ungortunate for hotel.

Was here for an innerbandy cup. To be honest there are better choices in linkoping, but little other availability due to other events at the weekend. Room was noisy, some lift or something making noise all night. Only one lift which was really slow. Would I stay here again? No.

I asked repeatedly to book a parking spot in their garage to charge my electric car. For some reason the staff said no every time. Super weird, unhelpful and impractical. Do I get a reserved bed at least or is that not guaranteed either? The portions in the restaurant were small and based on white bread and butter, for lunch and dinner both. The second day I brought my own food to get enough.

Although it is supposed to be "central", it does requires from a quarter to twenty minutes walk to reach the very central part of town. Still, of course, it is not in the outskirts. The hotel is spacious and has plenty of rooms to offer in different wings. The reception is welcoming and the staff professional and friendly. The room I had was perfect size, with all the needed essentials. A good desk, an armchair, space for jackets, the bag. From what I remember the wardrobe was very essential and didn't have much of shelves. I suppose they do not expect people to stay too long. The bathroom was of a decent size, with good space and surfaces and all I needed for a shower, including an hair dryer. The bed was comfortable, but the main problem was that the room lacked AC. The first night I didn't realize that, as I did hear some "mechanical ventilation" in the room (which turned out to be the bathroom one only) and it got warm very quickly. Luckily the windows can be open, but it makes the temperature very uneven and maybe in the coldest nights it is not the best solution. It was also quite disturbing with the door for the corridor quite close to my room, slamming heavily. The breakfast was the high point - I could spot a broad selection of food, although more nordic oriented. I would have appreciated a touch of organic food, if not local, more interesting tea and nicer juices. They seem very industrial and some lack taste. The bread was instead fresh and genuine. It could be quite crowded during breakfast time, but not an impossible situation to solve. I noticed though that my room and the area around the elevantors, felt a bit outdated, torn. My room was definitely very nicely cleaned (although it didn't get clean during my stay) but it was very standard in the quality of the materials and the appearance. Alltogether a perfectly ok stay. The price was not too high, but definitely not on the cheapest side either, but I think reasonable for the location and the quality.

Quiet area, easy access by car. But, homepages said parking was included.. Partly correct.. Luckily we got the last parkingspot in a small narrow garage with only 180 cm clearing. There was others after us that didnt get free parking. No AC, but windows could bu opened. All in all a good room. Very good breakfast. Ok for the price...
