Stockholm is our favorite European City and we have had 4 lengthy trips here, this being the shortest, 2 weeks. Perfectly located in Gamla Stan and near the boat to Djursgarden and an easy walk into the center city and my favorite, Sodermalm. We are an older retired couple but active. The 4 flights of charming curvy stairs did not deter us, nor did the cobblestone streets and unevenness of Gamla Stan but if you have mobility issues, this particular apartment is probably not suited for you. For other travelers, think twice about those extra large suitcases. About the 2nd floor you will wish you had a light carry on. The apartment itself is extraordinarily clean and well equipped, probably the best we have experienced. We booked this particular apartment because I was hoping my adult son would travel with us and this apartment provides sufficient privacy. The space works well but lift your feet over the threshholds (remember no shoes in the apartment). The living room with both couches and chair works well for talking and there are lots of windows for peering out at the charm of the area. The comfortable bed seemed like it was a queen. When you book a place, look carefully at that because some Swedes sleep in 3/4 beds. The kitchen is fully equiped and it is nice to have a refrigerator and a freezer as well as a stove, diswasherand washer. No dryer but there is a drying rack and clothes dry quickly. I would urge you when you arrive to read Tom's hints in his booklet as well as checkout all the drawers in the kitchen. You might expect your laundry detergent and dishwashing tabs in boxes but they are in plastic containers. I have never stayed at a place with such a fully equipped kitchen. Communication with Tom and his house manager is almost instantaneous. This is a 400 year old building and it occasionally will get cranky but it is special to stay there. One last hint, we enjoyed our lunches at Slingerbulten, very reasonable and lots of locals. And we like the ICA at Mediborplasm for grocery shopping. The grocery at the bottom of Ahlens is also nice with lots of choices. We had a wonderful stay. Great internet.
