    Never has money been so efficiently extracted from me. I mean, I knew they charged for the internet but 2€ for 20 minutes is pretty obscene. They charge for everything, it's even over 3€ to put your bags in the luggage room. It's clean, but there HAS to be some better options in...

    The bar was excellent, great music, friendly bar staff and cheap drinks. On the downside, and this loses all hope of me ever returning to Danhostel, is that there were bedbugs in the bedroom. We showed the staff and they told us to leave our bed linen (that was our own) and they moved us to...

    it is a typical hostel on a new big building: the rooms are very new with nice bunks and lockers, and other well thought accessories.

    Very modern, very clean, very functional. A bit clinical, probably because its so large, and an awkward bar for such a large building. Still, a good base to hit the city from.
