Reviews for Solakoop B&B
Review 1:No stable, normal, internet connection via WiFi available. WiFi connection is OK, but there is no internet that you can count on, if you want to do some work or if you want to watch TV, listen radio via internet. Internet connection not available. The rooms were not cleaned during my stay for over a week.
Review 2:The staff was friendly, but unfortunately could not solve the internet-problem.
Review 3:Marginal breakfast and a bit confusing self serving.
Review 4:Easy to find right off main road from Oslo to Stockholm , but still quiet rooms. Easy walk to city center Karlstad. Friendly staff.
Review 5:Location was between the highway (to the back) and a main town road (to the front) so rooms on either the front, or the back, were a bit noisy.
Review 6:Room was very clean, but overall the establishment had the feel of an old-style dorm. For one night, it was fine, however I would not have wanted to stay for multiple nights.
Review 7:A bit noisy due to the fact that it is located between two roads. Shared shower although we did not have to wait to take a shower. Check in until 8 PM. The bedcovers were not clean.
Review 8:The staff was welcoming and very gentle. The room was basic but clean and the beds comfortable. The hotel is 10 min walk by a bike path from Karlstad center. Good location. Free on spot parking.
Review 9:Breakfast was simple, but good.
Review 10:Nice rooms with own private toilet. Very friendly and helpful staff. We got free bicycles to use to go into town. Collective ownership is great initiative.
Review 11:No room-darkening shades. Mediocre breakfast choices with cereals, very few meats, only two cheeses, no plain black tea.
Review 12:Room was quiet, clean and comfortable, despite being located between two major roads.
Review 13:The location is excellent for exploring Karlstad on foot. There is an interesting museum nearby. The B&B is located in part of Krlatad with nice old buildings.
Review 14:Breakfast a little less than we were expecting, but that said it served the purpose and at the price hard to complain
Review 15:Good location for a stop over to Oslo Nice looking place from the outside. Karlstad was a bit of an ugly duckling, which we actually enjoyed.
Review 16:Reception was pretty weird and unfriendly. Rooms are old. Hardly saw staff. Breakfast was really bad. They leave pastry out the night before. There is some stuff in the fridge too but very limited choice. We were all very glad we only booked for one night and could leave fast. The city is about a 20' walk away, which is ok. It's certainly the least inviting place we stayed in during our Scandinavia trip. I read some very positive reviews here; I can only assume things changed a lot lately. If we're ever near Karlstad again we'll certainly avoid this place.
Review 17:Free parking and good wifi Building looks fine from the outside but inside it's like an old youth hostel without the charm and low prices
Review 18:WiFi did not work, reception hours is very limited - but so is the price...
Review 19:Solakoop is basically a very nice place. A warm welcome from the staff at arrival, big, spacious rooms with own toilets, free parking, just a short stroll alongside the canal to the city centre. Nice, "help your-self" breakfast with a free newspaper. Dirt cheap as well. Highly recommended.
