Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Not very clean- noisy - no heat
The place was listed as 4 beds room and in reality it was 8 bed room. The place was very dirty, the heat didn’t work and it was hard to find the entrance and check in. One you check in you need 3 codes for 3 different doors and and key for the entrance. The place located above a life music venue so no sleeping is possible until late. Not worth the price.

The location was perfect for what I needed, and despite being over a popular bar the hostel was nice and relaxing and quiet. Exactly what I wanted. Residents were kind and friendly and I appreciated that they tried to maintain a level of respect and had systems of labeling things in place to make organizing easy

Bra för att vara hostel
Ett bra hostel! Helt okej på övervåningen när det kommer renhet. När man väll kommer in på nedervåningen stinker det mögel men det luktade absolut inte något inne i mitt rum.
