The apartment is lovely, furnished with all the needed basics, larger than appears in the pictures and surrounded by a beautiful forest with really good connections in terms of public transport to reach central Stockholm. The bed is very comfortable and shower’s also good. Possibly one of the most affordable options on Airbnb for a long-term stay in the city (my partner and I stayed for a full month) close to stunning nature.
When it comes to minus points, we experienced quite heavy disturbances for two weeks straight coming from the upstairs neighbours (bad luck), which points to a larger issue: our host, owner of the upstairs apartment (and the whole building complex it seems) also hosting the disruptive guests, seemed somehow unwilling to step in to confront the neighbours about their violent/inappropriate behaviour and extremely loud noise. After a number of complaints (we got in touch to see whether we should call the police), we were basically told that given the thin walls of the complex, we were bound to hear what went on elsewhere in the building—so we ended up having to “suck it up”, meaning we spent two weeks being constantly woken up and random hours in the night by other Airbnb guests in the building, which obviously compromised our sleep. In conclusion: if you decide to rent this apartment looking for a relaxing getaway like we did, you may want to pray to the gods so you don’t have to live near such unpleasant or loud people (maybe you’ll be lucky, unlike us). On another note, we had to deep-clean the kitchen cabinets and surfaces ourselves when we checked in, and found used dental floss on the drawer of the bedside table, so cleanliness is another aspect to work with (although the majority of the apartment was okay). Overall a good place to stay, but some room for improvement in terms of communication and cleanliness.
