Free pasta in the kitchen is great, as is the tea and coffee in the reception area. Reception staff always willing to offer help and conversation should you get bored of talking to your dorm mates! Location is good for shops and transport, although it's a very walking friendly city.
United KingdomThe staff members were very friendly. I like the free sauna very much. Also being so close to the central station, the location couldn’t have been better.
United States of AmericaStaffs were nice. They explained me about everything kindly. The decor of this hostel was so cute and all stuff I needed was there. And rooms have a nice space for chatting with roommates. I got to make some friends. It was amazing.
JapanGood location, great kitchen, comfortable room and common areas.
SwedenThe hostel is cleaned every day. The staff are super friendly. And I met a bunch of new friends there. The location is also perfect as it only took me a half an hour walk to get to Gamla Stan. All the top sightseeing places were walking distance.
