29 September 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: very friendly staff, very close the the Central station. I stayed in an 18-bed dorm but it was much better than expected. Stuffy, ok, but I haved stayed in worse.

Disliked: stayed just for a sleepover, so there wasn´t much to dislike

13 September 2011

Liked: A few of the staff were really friendly, and the hostel was located in a fairly convenient location.

Disliked: The communal toilet stalls were just too dirty, with full bins that were infrequently emptied. The shower rooms had several drain/moth flies. Although they are by no means harmful, they made showering an unpleasant experience. Also, my bed in the dorm room was quite uncomfortable. I'd wake up very often by the creak of the bed that the person on the lofted bed or I would make by shifting sleeping positions. I rented the bed linens for 59 Krona, I believe, and the bedsheet had a large, mysterious, and unpleasant greenish stain on it. Plus, the lack of windows made the room stuffy as well.

Liked: great location...

Disliked: couldnt drink in the hostel, no noise after 11pm makes it hard to interact with other travellers!

16 August 2011

Liked: The only good thing-good wi-fi connection.

Disliked: The place was just filthy. FILTHY I tell you. There were dust balls rolling all over the floor(especially underneath the beds. Yuck!), dirty little bits all over the mat, and even the sink in the room was coated with dust. It was just nasty and you could tell that they didn't clean the rooms properly for a long period of time. Oh, and when I complained about these things and asked to cancel 2 nights out of the 3 nights that I had booked, the Spanish receptionist lady started yelling at me and said "If you say the room is dirty, you are calling me dirty!" which was totally nuts. Why take it so personally? I wasn't lying when I said the room was dirty but she just freaked out and went on and on how they cleaned the room every day and even went on to saying that it wasn't the room that was dirty-it was my roomates that were dirty! Wow..that was definitely scary. I mean, how immature and unprofessional can you get? Just learn to take the criticism. And I've been to other hostels with the same price range-none of them were as dirty (or crazy) as this place. DO NOT go to this hostel. I'm pretty sure there are other better places you can book. Oh, and one more thing-the mattresses on the beds are like 5 cm thick and the mid-section is even thinner. The whole bed creaks like hell every little time you move. If you want a serious backache and enjoy the creaking sounds, you can sleep here. If not, think twice before you book.

12 April 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: it was really located right in the middle of stockholm. Quiet enough, since its located in the basement. (no windows, but that did not bother me) the showers were neat, and so were the kitchen and the rooms. we were in a 4-bed room and they had nice wooden bedframes. Other rooms had the normal aluminiums, however, as I saw.

Disliked: No stove, no oven. Pay 50 SEK for bed-sheets.

Liked: Liked the location, the staff and the common areas. Thanks for a nice stay.

Disliked: The mattresses needs to be renewed. My bed where quite hard and my back was aching after just one night there.

15 March 2011 Danielle would recommend this property

Liked: GREAT location, probably one of the best located hostels in Stockholm, and given how expensive hostels in Stockholm are compared to other cities I´d say this one was a good value. Staff was very friendly, large showers downstairs with wonderfully hot water, kitchen is a good place to chat and meet people, free internet. Overall I was very pleased with my stay. (I stayed in the large 18 bed room but peeked into some of the smaller rooms and they looked really really nice.)

Disliked: Not much to dislike... really the only things I can complain about are: had to pay for sheets, towel, and breakfast (but you´ll find the same thing many places) and the mattresses were a bit thin, although not enough to be a problem just staying there a few nights.

07 March 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Its very nice. And I recommend to others. I was quite not sure, when I heard that rooms are in basement. But, does it matter? Either its is 100th floor or basement, when the doors are closed, i think doesn't matter. If your return journey is in the evening, you can leave your luggage safely at Hotels luggage room. The hotel is so near to all places, that, i didn't travel in bus or train at all.

Disliked: Nothing as such.
