First of all, clean, nice and cozy. In addition, a pleasant and nice modern decor. Rate per night rather inexpensively (especially as in Stockholm), nice large and well equipped kitchen-free coffee and tea. Toilets and showers very clean and fragrant, I would say that even sterile. Very close to many attractions (near City Hall) and about 5 minutes walk from... More

I went there for the bachelor party of my brother and we had a blast! Not only it is a good hostel, they offer free pasta! Only the pasta, you have to buy the rest of course. I recomend it not only for that, but for the place and the price! More

This is really great place. I spent 3 nights in 8-bed dorm. I booked 12-bed via internet, but because all 12-beds rooms were occupied I was upgraded to 8-bed with NO additional charge. Staff is very friendly, hostel is being cleaned every single day. Rooms are not big of course, but have comfortable beds, and lockers (bring your own padlock... More

This is honestly one of the best hostels I have stayed in! It is funky, clean, modern and ideally located. It took us about 30 minutes to walk into the old town but you can get a bus for part of the way - easy to do. The internet is free (all of their computers are Macs!) and they also... More

This is a fantastic hostel, quite possibly one of the best I've ever been to - there's a few minor flaws but nothing that will stop me from returning here! But let's start with all the "features"..! Security is tight! Entering the main door involves keying codes, and then entering your room involves keying another set of codes!! So yes... More

This hostel is lovely - really clean and warm with amazing facilities. It's really central so you can walk everywhere from there. It's secure, with codes on all the doors. There's lots of nice places to sit and read, watch TV, lots of computers, and free wifi. Great, well stocked kitchen with free pasta you can help yourself to. Didn't... More

Every people had their own space, there is locker in the room also. It was very clean. The weekend is pretty busy but on week... More

This was my first backpacking and hostel experience and this was definitely a good one. The hostel has excellent security (codes on every door, entrance code changes everyday, room code probably won't change during your stay). Free pasta means that you won't go hungry and there is a store 5 min away. It takes about 10 min to walk to... More
