I recently stayed at this hostel, and it was absolutely perfect for a budget traveler like me. The entire facility was spotlessly clean, from the rooms to the shared spaces, and the bathrooms were consistently well-maintained. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always ready to assist with any questions or recommendations, making me feel right at home. The location was ideal, close to public transportation and local attractions, yet surprisingly quiet at night, ensuring a restful stay. The amenities exceeded my expectations for a budget hostel, with a well-equipped kitchen, a cozy common area for socializing, and strong, reliable Wi-Fi. For the price, the value was unbeatable—combining affordability with top-notch service and comfort. I wholeheartedly recommend this hostel to any traveler looking for an affordable, clean, and welcoming place to stay, and I’ll definitely return on my next trip!

It's very good to have a USB port and a lamp next to the bed. I loved the bathroom inside the room and the shelves outside it. I loved the mirror. I loved the breakfast. the location from the hostel to station train is perfect.

The hostel was surprisingly really nice and it exceeded our expectations. We had a really nice stay there. It does not feel like an hostel and the location by the sea is amazing. We were 3 friends in a bedroom of 4 and we did not have anyone else in the room. The hostel offer 2 options for breakfast and the outside terraces are really peaceful to eat. The kitchen is big and have everything you need inside.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    I hesitated writing a good review, because it feels like I discovered a well-kept secret. Totally worth the cheap price, set in a wonderful location, close to the center, in peaceful surroundings, and a standard that is worthy of upmarket hotels, yet with the affordable price of a youth hostel. Friendly staff too. We'll definitely be back.

    Great hostel, with a really convenient location, 5 min walk from the Central station and Arlanda express and not far from the touristic spots. . The 4 people room is basic but clean, with two bunk beds and 4 lockers. The hostel is mostly quiet and in a safe zone (had no issue walking alone at night as a girl). I loved also the sauna that is perfect after a full day walking in the cold weather! The staff are always available 9am-8pm or via Whatsapp.
