    I was in Sweden recently, and the hotels were excellent. The whole society is 100% child friendly, pubs, shops, hotels, all had big play areas with attendants.
    The hotel had a cot in it, even though we only bokked a double.
    The room had a porthole into the ensuite, which was a bit weird

    Lots of hotels - all the ones I stayed at in Sweden anyway - look exactly like Ikea to start with so they're just dealing to the customers direct

    And they have meatballs for breakfast in Sweden.

    Probably get quite rickety and shabby after a couple of years and they'd have to build a new one

    I would hope they don't have any bits left over once it's been put together.

    Do you think they have special 6 foot allen keys for locking the supports?
