"The location of Castle House Lux Apartments is ideal. It’s right next to Tjornin Lake and within easy walking to downtown, shopping areas, and pickup spots for tours. There is a large supermarket within a 5 min walk. The kitchen is small, but functional with a 2-burner stove and a small refrigerator, which was sufficient for our needs. We were able to cook all our dinner meals there. Our rooms were very clean. The 2 upstairs apartments with a balcony require climbing a set of stairs to the...

"We loved our stay at the hotel. We visited for Airwaves and the hotel was within minutes from the venues and made it easy to get around. It's next to all the sites you can walk to and enjoy the city center. Perfect location all around. Bus stop #1 is a block away and that is extremely convenient for airport transfer and tours. The people are always friendly and knowledgeable and help with anything needed. I would definitely stay here again!"

"Older building but very well taken care of. Lovely studio with everything you need. A little loud from parties on the street, but nothing closed windows and black out curtains can't fix! Contactless communication but all the emails, etc. are super helpful! Recommend."

"Good: location is pretty excellent Bad: communication could’ve been better. We have to wait the next for a message. And no one answer right away when we call. Our living room heater is broken (told them when we arrive) they send someone to check two days after and the guy said he’ll come back and he never did. We used the dish washer and soaked the kitchen because the water wasn’t draining properly (no one came to check after letting them know). Our garbage supposed to be pick up every two days...

"Great communication, hospitality at an all time high! Beautiful apartment! The only thing that we didn’t love was that there was construction going on at the apartment directly above us and it awoke us each morning due to the loud banging, but otherwise the stay was awesome! Very centrally located, very walkable. Would recommend! "
