City Hotel Nebo

The 84-room Missionshotellet Nebo is a clean, simple, and convenient pick near Central Station. Although the area can get a touch dodgy at night, this hotel isn't a speck seedy. As a matter of fact, the Nebo is owned by a church.

The Nebo offers three classes of rooms: Economy, Standard, and Superior. Economy rooms share showers and toilets in the hall, while Standard and Superior rooms have private baths. The Superior rooms are the most spacious with, wooden floors and less Spartan décor (read: floral bedspreads and curtains).

Economy rooms have comfortable beds, plain curtains, clean carpets, and fluffy white duvets. Although there isn't much in the way of ambiance except for maybe a lone Miró print, the rooms are airy and pleasant. We only wish the bathroom floor didn't double as the shower floor. (Wet socks in the morning are a personal pet peeve).

The receptionists at the front desk are very helpful; they can assist with renting a bicycle, our recommended way to see the city.

The included breakfast is a typical Scandinavian-style buffet.
