    We had a really good stay there! Staff was very friendly. There's only one little thing worth criticizing: there was no room service during our complete stay (5 days). But nevertheless - the hostel can be definately recommended!

    Nous avons passé un séjour très agréable dans cette auberge de jeunesse. L'accueil y est très chaleureux et le quartier est calme tout en étant assez proche des quartiers animés de Stockholm. Très bon rapport qualité/prix.

    I think it xas a very nice stay. The rooms and kitchen are comfortable, the staff nice. Maybe one thing : I would add curtains for the showers near the sauna.

    For the cleaning of the bathroom by the users, there should be some liquid cleaning materials in the reserved room together with the other cleaning stuff.

    The only thing that was bad was the showerroom. You can see everything and everyone. Other than that we liked it very much.

    Very nice hostel, with agreable rooms that seems to have been freshly renovated. The staff is nice. I had a very nice stay and I would recommend it. A little bit far from town center but still a reasonnable distance.However the access to the internet is amazingly expensive

    Stayed in a twin room with ensuite and it was more like a hotel than a hostel, which suited well as I was travelling with my dad. Good range of breakfast options,the hostel one is good value. location bit out of town but close to transport. Would recommend.

    When we arrived we had to pay 5 euro per person more a night because we were no members of some kind of hostel community. The blankets are 8 euro's so take your owns and the cleaning is also 5 euro. All of this we didn't know when we booked the hostel. So the result was an expensive stay and it... more

    Nice hostel, but not too much fun. More a family place than a party place. Far away from the city centre as well. And without a HI-membership you pay a lot more than the prices on hostelworld.com.

    The best hostel I stayed in a long time... For once, you don't feel like your in the middle of a high school party! The dormitory have only four beds, there is a nice and quiet pub and everything is clean. I highly recommend it for people who actually want a place to sleep, not only to party!

    The worse hostel ever!!! The lift was broken and we had to carry the bags until the 5th floor! The room was very very small and we barely could move inside it (we were 3 persons plus the bagage). The bathroom was the worse thing. The shower is in the ceiling (over the sink and toilet) and when we... more

    Decent place, like other have said you do have to pay for everything (linen, fridge etc..) Either way, enjoyed my stay. Hornstull T-Bana stop is closer than the Zinkendamms stop.

    They will charge for every single thing they can, even the fridge and the cleaning at the end. It wouldn't be a big deal if the prices were reasonable but they aren't. Forget web access for the same reason. But the location/atmosphere and character are perfect, with a park and beach close by...
