No hassle place, just a simple nice place with the necessary things. Short opening hours at the reception, but very welcoming people. Good for experienced travellers. more

I was surprised by the negative reviews. Perhaps it was before the bathrooms were renovated. It is basic as far as hostels go. Beds, private toilets, stall showers. All very clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. There's a PC for some internet surfing in the check-in room. The location truly could NOT be better. It's in the heart of... more

So pleased to have stayed here, so central in the old town. Marianne, the efficient, friendly receptionist was always available. She helped everyone feel comfortable at the hostel. Rooms were clean, as were bathrooms. (Linen pay extra.) Due to location it is noisy, garbage trucks etc 4am..free internet access is a bonus. Kitchen was also good but small if many... more

*N.B. I stayed here for 3 days in December 2006; they might've cleaned up since then* This hostel has a good location on Gamla Stan. That said, I'd absolutely never stay there again. It was just too dirty. The towel and bed linens were clean BUT the foam mattress, mattress cover, duvet and pillow were old, lumpy and beyond filthy... more

We booked this hostel knowing that it would be a cheap and basic option for an expensive city but nothing prepared us for what was in store! When we arrived to the stench of sewage in the corridor things didn't look good but it just got worse when we realised our rooms were off the main wash and toilet area... more
