“Scandic Opalen's stadium perch”
Scandic Opalen is a well-located hotel near the stadiums — nice renovated quiet rooms, a good breakfast, front-door pay parking, and early check-in granted for one guest (an eighteen-euro fee was quoted to another, who waited). Caveats though: all facilities were closed for renovation during one stay, and rebooking rooms proved awkward.
