And check out by 10am...the people who work here obvioulsy dont drink beer and go to nightclubs, get hangovers, etc....I'd book a cheap hotel next time..close

Overall i thought this was a pretty good hostel. Everything in copenhagen is more expensive than most other cities, so the room price was ok i think.To all those people that complain about the non member price, its a YHA guys! they ALL ask for member cards, and its on ALL the sites i looked at,...

Security was high priority and there were lots of places for you to sit and chat or lounge about. Computers needed to be looked at, almost none were working at the time we stayed. Overall I would recommend it for a stay in Copenhagen.close

There was not enough information about additional prices 35DKK. It should be said that a member should have card, I though that being logged to web page is enough To clealiness: the bathroom was not clen, there was no toilet paper

Good hostel close to the train station. I was supposed to be in an 8 bed dorm, but was actually in a 10 bed dorm...not that it makes much difference. The bathroom ensuite was quite dirty though...never saw it cleaned in the three days I was there. Staff was good and friendly though.

there must be a possibility for free where you can deposit youre baggage if you are leaving late in the evening,because you have to check out at 10 a.m. and it is pretty cheap to deposit it at the main station....this was,and still is, a big minus for this hostel

We stayed in a 8 bed dorm - this was in fact 2 separate 4-bed rooms sharing a single shower & toilet. The shower & toilet are in the one room, so if you need to go whilst someone is in the shower then you just have to wait. We didn't eat the breakfast at the hostel, as there's plently of cafes & bakeries around the city.close

It was so good to stay there, because there was a bar and you can spend with nice people there or use PC with internet etc... But It would be better if there some kitchen available for us.

generally the hostel was ok but once a guest left the cleaners didn't tidy the beds so there was always confusion about who was using wich bed.

I could of paid for my own room for less than i paid at danhostel. The room price is doubled when they add the cost of not being a member and using sheets and towel and internet. nothing is free and hostels are about youth travelers that are on a budget.

Nice place to stay in Copenhagen with its great location and security. It's even not like a hostel, more like a regular hotel (only equipped with 6 beds in one room). However, everything needs to be paid besides the room fee. And the breakfast buffet is just so so...you may find things better...

Great spot, excellent location, very clean. The extra charge for bed linen and hostel membership is a bit cheeky but you get charged for everything in Copenhagen, even the tap water.

We left our room 10 min late. And therefore were pressed to pay for an additional night. So my advice is don't party too hard, go to bed early, don't mess with the owners, when you're planning to stay at this hostel. Or choose another one ;-)!!!

Really good hostel, more like a hotel with more people on the room. Very big and new building, really nice. Just a little expensive if you don't have your own bed linen (almost 10 eur) and aditional cost if you don't have hostel international card (more 5 eur)...

Very good hostel overall. Very clean. In a very good location, though there seems to be little to do in the city itself. I had a top floor room and got a great view of the city. The staff are extremely friendly. They seem to know how to get money out of you though...

Very clean but the room was very warm. Great location, great breakfast. Check out way before checkout time because (since this is a high rise with tons of guests) it's a nightmare to check out.
