Scandic Infra City is a gorgeous property - clean and quiet, however, it is a long way from Stockholm, so transportation can be an issue. It is close to Arlanda airport and there is a train from Arlanda to Upplands-Vasby station. There are 3-4 buses within a block of the hotel that will take you to either Upplands-Vasby or Roteborg train station or you can request a taxi to U-V station for ~140SEK. There is a direct train from either station to Stockholm Central in ~15 minutes and the Exhibition and Congress Center (Alvsjo) in ~25 minutes.
The rooms look like they are straight out of an Ikea showroom - wooden floors, simple Scandinavian style. Everything was clean, neat, quiet and spacious. The price is excellent since it includes free breakfast and free in-room wi-fi. There is a pool and a gym - I didn't have time to use either, however, since I was on the same floor, I met many people going back and forth to do so, including two enthusiastic children :)
The breakfast buffet was excellent. (I did not dine at the hotel for any other meals.) There is a small shopping center within a block of the hotel that includes two restaurants and a grocery store. There is very little else within walking distance.
Hotel staff were wonderfully helpful and provided detailed directions to Stockholm attractions such as the Vasa and Nordic museums and Skansen.
I would give this hotel a 5 except it is so far from the main attractions of Stockholm like Gamla Stan and transportation after 7pm and on weekends is limited.
