I had a decent stay at this hotel, which is conveniently located just outside the City Wall and a short walk from the old town of Visby. The rooms, while comfortable with great views of the park and sea, faced a somewhat noisy parking lot. The staff was friendly and accommodating, but some services could use improvement. Overall, it feels like a good value for the location and features offered.

The hotel has a great location just outside the city wall, making it easy to access the old town of Visby.
