Location:
Södermalm Police station lies not far from the center of the city, with many shopping opportunities. The neighborhood seemed clean and quiet. Across the street lies an affordable restaurant.
Dresscode: Suspicious. Preferably black clothes.
Rooms: X
Very minimalistic scandinavian design. There was actually only one matress in the room, and a little puddle of water to spice it all up. The emptiness enhanced the Sing Fei of the room, but was boring in the long run.
Sleep Quality: None.
The air in the rooms was fresh, as there were no less than 3 ventilation shafts in the room. Unfortunately, the minimalistic design led to a lack of heating utensils, so the room was freezing cold, which led to me shaking on a hard matress for 4 hours.
Pricing: X
The detention is a very affordable way of housing, as it is for free.
Service: X
I must say, that I have never witnessed worse service. I was treated like a criminal. When I called the room-service-button, it could take a long time, before my call was answered.
Secutity: XXXXX
Security was rather good, as there was no less than two armed policeofficers following you to the toilet every time the little pee-and/or-poop-lady called.
Gender Equality: At Södermalm, you cannot expect to be body searched by someone of your own gender, even if you ask for it. Thus, as a woman you can expect to be searched by a man. Though, I must admit there was many women who were employed, which is a typical picture of, how far Sweden has developed, when it comes to gender equality and feminism.
Food: X
No food was served during the stay. At one point the employees opened the door to my room a bit, so I could smell the food they were about to eat.
When I asked for a banana from my bag, the employee was very confused, and had to get her boss. The boss yelled "This is not a restaurant."
Outdoor opportunities: None.
Tips: If you are planning on a stay at Södermalm police station, learn origami. This is really the only pastetime here. As the ancient Swedish saying goes:
"Put toilet paper in my punani - smuggled it to deto, make origami" read more
