Good. Would stay again.Wonderful view IKEA ;-)
Free breakfast was great. Room was clean and comfortable. About the only thing I didn't like was that there was a Sweden heatwave and the rooms have only a fan with NO air conditioner. Luckily, we were on the 2nd floor and felt safe to keep the window open. However, there are no window screens ANYWHERE it seems in Sweden. So the biting bugs will fly into the room.
Inga problem med något, förutom att det var lite för varmt på rummet.

Too expensive for what you get
We were disappointed with this hotel. It was very clean, but we had a very small room that was just basic. The bed was small for 2 people and not very comfortable. The breakfast was not a success either. The cheapest ingredients in the bread, rolls and orange juice. The eggs were tasteless and the coffee weak. We expected more because this hotel was more expensive than any hotel we stayed at last summer. None of the other hotels were this poor.

Stop and shop
Rasta Kalmar is a handy stop mid way between Copenhagen and Stockholm. The rooms are located upstairs at a restaurant. Positives were the spacious rooms, which even had a couch, free parking, good breakfast (included in booking), and location with plenty of nearby shops including Ikea. About the only thing the room didn't have was a fridge.

Adequate for one night
Room quite dated, though comfortable bed. Heavy room doors were very noisy every time they were closed. Breakfast was reasonable though the restaurant was more like a roadside stopover, we went elsewhere for evening meal. Ok for one night stay. Easy parking.

Nice place.
The staff was very helpful and nice. The breakfast was very good.I Initially thought it was going to be a noisy night but I was wrong. It was a very quiet one. Good location as well. I would definitely stay there again.

Nice hotel. Great breakfast
The hotel is nice, breakfast is incredible and the water pressure is the best I have ever had.
I recommend the hotel if you don't mind being far from the city center. Is a 15 to 20 minute bus ride to city center, so it's not much anyways.
