Urban apartment near the city bustle

CiprianRating, 5 starstoday

We spent three days exploring Karlstad and its beautiful surroundings, and Linda’s place was the perfect base for our stay. The apartment is spacious, bright, and thoughtfully equipped — from the large, incredibly comfortable bed to the fully stocked kitchen with a dining table and a lovely view. The location is ideal, within walking distance to the city center and several supermarkets, and having a parking spot in the driveway was a huge plus. We truly felt at home and would gladly stay here again!
