Really convenient location, though it's best to open the windows slightly during the day to help with the ventilation.

Great hostel in terms of location, breakfast, and facilities. The only downside is it was so hard to sleep because of the street noise, light coming in from outside, and the room being quite hot and stuffy even with the window open.

The staff. One person who checked me in on September 11th (evening) did an outstanding job taking her time introducing me to the hostel and it’s service, plus giving me some great suggestions on the map you all provide. I’m sorry I forgot her name.

I loved this hostel! Everyone is so friendly. The staff organise free activities every day. The breakfast is included and serve waffles! Everything is super clean. Good vibes. The only thing I wish was different is some sausages or some meat for breakfast 😅 Thank you so much for a very positive stay!

10/10

A wonderful stay! I enjoyed every single minute staying here. The staff makes this place unique. They treated me as a friend! Especially Julius and René were wonderful. There is a very cozy atmosphere, which feels like staying home. This made it very easy to connect to other travellers. The Hostel was very clean, it is very centrally located, and the breakfast was delicious. During the stay coffee, tea and fruits are available during the whole day and in combination with the breakfast it had a amazing value. Looking forward to my next visit!

Mycket bra rent och snyggt! Trevligt bemötande och service. God frukost med hembakat bröd. Saknade yoghurt till "müsli". Ok som tant att övernatta i blandat rum med 8 bäddar i rymligt rum. Promenadavstånd till gamla sta´n, tågstation, kommunikationer och flygbuss,
