    Best value for money in Stockholm, minutes away from Gamla Stan

    The room was too small.

    I really liked the hostel. It's just 15 minutes away on foot from Gamla Stan. The hostel is pretty basic, but the rooms are quite nice. I really felt I was sleeping in a Carlsson's room. The best thing about the hostel I think is the location. 15 minutes on foot from Gamla Stan. Many places to dine around and have some food.

    It was a bit dirty in room on the floor (someone’s hair), plumbing is outdated as well

    Location - just 5 min walk from T-bana, pretty calm (despite windows are looking ti the street) and big kitchen available for use. Cheap cost as for the Stockholm

    It’s situated underground, the rooms are very very small, so if you are claustrophobic avoid this property.

    The location where this property is situated is very close to center and easily accesibile via metro. Overall the cleaning level was acceptable, it can definitely be improved.

    Not much going on at the hostel (and no real common area). Also, it's quite inconvenient to not have curtains on bed.

    Very clean hostel. And everything was provided (towels, locks).

    The smell of the room was like a smell of a second hand store. That was the only thing that I did not like.

    Nothing to think of, as it's a hostel and my expectations were set towards that.

    I liked the vibe and decor. The bed was comfortable. The room was small, but adequate for my needs, and it was also very comfortable. I thought the duvet may he cold before going to bed, but it was good. Was also worried about air quality as it was an internal room, but the ventilation system was good. Bonus points for having an ironing board and iron easily available.

    My only real complaint is that the price was outrageous for a hostel. But it was also the cheapest I could find. So that may just be a Stockholm problem 🤷‍♀️

    Check-in was very easy. The hostel itself was very cute, with funky pictures, a little library, and a nice kitchen. The room (5-bed mixed dorm) was clean. The bed was comfortable, the linens were clean, and a fresh towel was provided. The key system for the hostel is very convenient. The room is well equipped with a large locker per person, tons of outlets, and plenty of hanger hooks. Each bed also has a small reading lamp. There were ladders for those on top bunks. The bathroom was very clean and the shower was nicer than any I’ve seen at a hostel. The water got very warm and the pressure was excellent. It shuts off periodically to remind you to preserve water. Shower gel was provided in each stall. The location is convenient, very near the Skanstull metro stop. There’s a grocery store across the street and plenty of cafes in the area. Only three metro stops from the old town and four from central station. It’s also only a short walk from a very cute area with lots of vintage shops.

    I don't have data connection on my cell phone so it was a bit of a drag to be sent the WiFi password by email when I couldn't access it as long as I didn't have access to begin with. It would be nice to have it on display somewhere.

    The Hostel is in the basement and the architecture isnicely done. Plenty of rooms with very nice furniture in the common area. Entering in non bisiness hours is easy. Bathroom is nice and comfortable. I had a 5 bed dorm and was good.

    I wish there was a lounge area, because a lot of people stay in the hostel and it’s quite narrow. But it’s cheap for Stockholm so it’s understandable

    It was my first time staying in a shared room of 12 people, and it was surprisingly fine. Everyone was very respectful of each other’s limited space and sleep time, clean, quiet. It’s cozy, everyone is nice, the location is great, pretty, a lot of cute cafes around and center nearby. There is laundry, you need to pay 100sek (9€) for it (I think it’s cheaper than regular laundromats). There’s a kitchen, fridge

    Having guests make their beds would be fine, but when people arrive late to a hostel it can be a burden. Even the most dexterous people cannot put a duvet in its cover on a top bunk in the dark without waking other people.

    Great location, services, and facilities for the price.

    AC was not that stong. i was feeling little hot as there was no fan also in the room.

    I booked a private room with a shared bathroom (no window) and stayed for 2 days. While the room was small, it was comfortable and perfectly fine for a short stay. The location is excellent—just a 2-minute walk to public transport, making it easy to get around the city. There are also plenty of restaurants nearby, which was very convenient. Overall, I had a nice stay and would recommend this place for anyone looking for a budget-friendly, short stay in a well-connected area.
