Hostel Copenhagen Downtown Hostel

Vandkunsten 5, 1467 Copenhagen, Denmark – Excellent location – show map – Subway Access

We could rent bikes for kr 60 for 6 hours. One day we had a 5 mile tour walking around Old Copenhagen; it was a cold, windy, wet day. I had not packed a coat. Receptionist let me borrow one from the Lost and Found. How thankful I was.

Staff was very nice. My request for a bottom bunk was complied with, and since the room was not ready when I arrived. I received a free drink at the bar. My fellow guests were friendly, we had some nice conversations both at the bar and in the dorm room we stayed in. Location is excellent, and nothing can beat the price. Beds are comfortable, equipped with light & socket. Spacious lockers for your bags under the bed. There was also a large, creepy picture of young John Travolta on the door. It was splendid meming material.
