Granted I didn&amp;#x27;t visit during rush hour, but it was quiet, clean and rather nice.&lt;p&gt;The station itself may be the deepest, but it isn&amp;#x27;t the busiest, and if you look at a map it makes sense. It&amp;#x27;s a single stop away from T-Centralan where all of the lines converge and it is the last station on the line. Leaving the station you emerge in a garden near the centre of the city, but there are other lines that will probably get most closer.&lt;p&gt;I went there in the middle of summer and honestly, the entire city didn&amp;#x27;t feel that busy in the same way London feels. I wouldn&amp;#x27;t be surprised if many locals are holidaying elsewhere, and Stockholm while a capital city, isn&amp;#x27;t at the top of the list of city destinations.&lt;p&gt;Also, shameless self-promotion and photos, but a friend challenged me to blog my trip and post online, click here for photos: &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;consto.uk&amp;#x2F;2018&amp;#x2F;07&amp;#x2F;16&amp;#x2F;interrailing-into-stockholm-day-five&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;consto.uk&amp;#x2F;2018&amp;#x2F;07&amp;#x2F;16&amp;#x2F;interrailing-into-stockholm-day...&lt;/a&gt;</text></comment>

It was quite packed with people but still extremely clean and thoroughly pleasant.&lt;p&gt;In my admittedly limited experience the Swedes are &lt;i&gt;really&lt;/i&gt; good at shared public spaces.</text></comment>
