Sure Hotel By Best Western Öjaby - Växjö

“Decent stay, but with some quirks”

I stayed here almost a week to visit the city and some friends nearby. The hotel is a bit out of the way, close to the airport, but still easy enough to reach by bus or bike.

I stayed here almost a week to visit the city and some friends nearby. The hotel is a bit out of the way, close to the airport, but still easy enough to reach by bus or bike. My room was bright and clean, and the bed was fine. The little entry area with a wardrobe has some space for luggage. There is no fridge in the room, but guests can use a lounge with a small kitchen and refrigerator. The bathroom was ok, though the shower cabin is really narrow – bigger guests might struggle with that. There would have been enough space to plan it differently. Also, room keys instead of key cards felt a bit old-fashioned, with only a card for the entrance after reception hours. The spa area was alright: a whirlpool, sauna and a relaxation room. Clean enough, but not exactly new. Works fine if you’re alone or with one more person, but more than that would feel crowded. The bikes roll, but they have no gears and are really only good for short trips. The restaurant was good, but without a reservation it’s tricky to get a table. Less because of seats, more because of food availability. I get not wanting to waste food, but turning down extra guests feels odd. Breakfast was ok, just a bit repetitive after a few days. Staff was always friendly and helpful, also beforehand – there was quite a bit of back and forth with my booking (due to my own travel plans), and they handled it patiently. All in all, an average stay – nothing major to complain about, but also not much that stood out.

“If booking last minute, give them a call first. Slight problem with Hotel Specials.”

Reserved the delux room. Not very luxurious. We had a bit of trouble to start with. We're on a road trip around Sweden and so have been booking places to stay on the day.

Reserved the delux room. Not very luxurious. We had a bit of trouble to start with. We're on a road trip around Sweden and so have been booking places to stay on the day. We booked this one a few hours before, so we understand that problems can happen last minute. When we turned up, the hotel was fully booked even though we'd paid for the room already through Hotel Specials. The hotel managed to squeeze us in as a couple hadn't turned up. The chap who served us first wasn't the friendliest and we were made to feel a burden. The room itself was as basic as you can get. Clean enough except for the silver fish! There was no kettle in the room, which is not alot to ask. There is a little communal kitchenette. We made the mistake of assuming that they have cooking utensils. They don't. But we were able to make a cuppa at least. Breakfast was fine. The dining room a bit tired. The receptionist/owner was friendly and kind. She had to sort out Hotel Specials as they'd obviously cocked up. So all in all. Was fine.
