Forenom Apartments Stockholm Johannesgatan

The best place we have ever stayed Just beautiful! Clean, has everything you need, well laid out and dare I say very Scandinavian. We were beyond happy with our stay. It’s in the centre of the city without being on a busy street, you can walk everywhere within 20 minutes. Recommend to all.

Excellent apt with all mod cons and right in the city within walking distance of everything. There were no issues. Communication was perfect, and all went well. 100 % recommendation. Beautiful balcony to sit out on and tv, WiFi was excellent.

Spent 4 nights there in mid-September and were not disappointed. The apartment is about a 15 minute (uphill) walk from the train station where the airport train arrives, but we managed it without too much trouble. Had to kill some time at the train station since code to enter the building isn't sent until 4pm but sure enough, right at 4pm we got the code via SMS and email. Building is on a quiet residential street just a 100 feet or so from a well-used park. The French school is across from the park and the International School is just up the street. We were in Building B which is after the courtyard so had to enter the code at both the front door and building door. Same code opened the door to our apartment. We had a large one-bedroom apartment which had a small balcony (too cold to use). Bedroom was an ample size with a large bed, clean linens, quilts, etc. although end tables were on small side. Closets were big and ample with one set for hanging clothes and a second with shelves. Kitchen had all the amenities... coffee maker, kettle, toaster, oven (didn't use), iron, ironing board, dishwasher, etc. Had a separate living room with a dining table for 4 people, tv, coffee table and couch which we assume could be used as an extra bed. Washer/Dryer in bathroom worked well but no detergent was provided (we also checked in the laundry room on ground floor but no luck) so we had to buy some. Cons: -- First morning we were there we discovered the shower drain was clogged so had to cut shower short before whole bathroom flooded. Called the Forenom number and it was fixed later that day while we were out. (Maintenance person left us a note indicating he'd been there.) -- Bathroom sink was very shallow and cabinet above it stuck out about 5-6 inches so it was impossible to wash your face or brush your teeth without getting water on the floor. Sink should have been deeper or cabinet inset in the wall to work properly. Pros: In addition to what I mentioned above: -- There was a Coop supermarket about a 10 minute walk away where we were able to get some of the basics. -- Lots of restaurants in neighborhood near the Coop along Sveavägen and on streets to the east. We ate at An Nam and The South Indian and both were good. -- Didn't have any noise problems although our unit was in a separate part of the building across from the elevator which probably helped.

I stayed at the Johannesgatan 12 property. Be warned Stockholm has some hills with stairs so plan route from T-centralen carefully to avoid them if you are walking and have lots of bags! The property and room were great. Very quiet, very clean. It’s several buildings with an interior courtyard so I heard almost no street noise. Staff were very responsive to questions by email. The neighborhood is very residential so it’s pretty quiet, but an easy 20 minute walk to the central train station and the Hötorget metro station is 5 minutes away. I had a single room with a twin bed and balcony. Comfy bed, nice bathroom facilities and everything worked. They were very prompt sending the access code to get into the property and room.
