I have seen no luck at Six or Hobo, but the other Stockholm city Ascend properties have worked out for me using points.
Thanks! I did notice some of the Ascend properties had availability.. but the At Six would potentially offer a far greater redemption value if it became available (>3 cents/point for some nights, assuming a 20k redemption rate), which appears to far surpass the 1-1.5 cents/point redemptions that I've been seeing in Scandanavia (and even that beats the pants off the anemic 0.3-0.5 cents/point redemptions domestically).
Plus, the At Six has some fantastic reviews.
