Seems a little understaffed.
According to reviews, the staff is generally helpful and friendly, but guests sometimes found the reception and restaurant to be understaffed and a little chaotic at times.

Smaller rooms windowless.
Guests found some of the smaller rooms and their bathrooms to be too cramped and basic, without enough space for luggage, while some lacked windows and therefore were a little stuffy, even with air conditioning.

Could be outdated, renovation.
A small number of those who stayed found Scandic Kungsgatan’s rooms to be outdated, with some noisy plumbing and drain smells also occasionally reported, but guests said it appeared to be undergoing renovation and expansion in 2015.
