10 June 2009 Benjamin would recommend this property

Liked: The bunks in the 4 bed berths are pretty small. There is about 60cm between the top bunk and the roof and the beds are barely 2 foot wide. The 10 bed dorm beds were much bigger. Other than that it was ok.

Liked: Really good location, breakfast is decent. Rooms are really small so prepare to really like your travelmates. Or hate. Because there are so few bathrooms (at least on the white boat), it was a bit of a crush at the bathroom around 8.

18 May 2009 Nigel Philip would recommend this property

Liked: Having read a few negative reviews I was concerned this would not be a good place to stay, but am pleased to say I had a great time. Superb location 400m from Stockholm Old Town, and my cabin had great views from teh porthole. OK, the cabins are a bit small, but this is a boat! Just imagine you are on a tramp steamer cruising round Scandinavia. Showers are basic, but clean. You have to pay extra if you want the Breakfast. The only big negative I would give is the lack of lockers, but there is keypad code access to the boat and keys to your room. Overall it wins on its charm and excentricity, even if it is not the most luxurious of hostels. Ahoy shopmates, head for the Red Boat

Liked: First of all, I was a little bit disappointed when I was asked to stay not in the boat which was promoted at HostelBookers but in another one which was next to it. What is more, they did not noticed before my arrival that 100 SEK key deposit would be required. On the other hand, the staff was friendly and it was a quite nice place to stay.

Liked: The location was really nice, it wasn't too far outside of Old Town and most things were in walking distance. We didn't use public transportation once when we were staying there. The employees at the hostel were very friendly and very helpful. I really enjoyed my time there.
