Aug 02, 2016 - This is basically a very good hotel, very economic and convenient. The only problem I had is that in a room of 10, people come in at different times. Those who check in at midnight may disturb the sleeping others. But most customers are very careful except a few. Another issue is the two-layer bed seems not strong enough. Easily get waked up when the guy above turns.
The service people are all very nice. The lodging service is very helpful. Generally speaking, I'm pretty satisfied with this hotel. It's a pleasant and impressive experience.
Suggestions: when I got there via Arlanda Express, I turned left after I got out of the Central Railway Station and walked a long way along Vasagatan, as directed by Google map. However, I just need to walk straightforward out of the exit of Arlanda Express along Bryggargatan for one block before turning left at Klara Norra. It's totally two minutes walk.
When I got there, I found one gate at Klara Norra 15 with password panel. However it is not the right gate. The correct gate is to the southeast, also labeled as 15 on Klara Norra.
Dec 06, 2015 - It was an ok hostel for 3 nights. What I missed was a nice common room area and the fact that not a lot of young people stayed. Also, the rooms do not have daylight, since they are all in the basement.
Sep 18, 2015 - The location was nice and everything was convenient. However, the only downside was this fat blonde lady at the reception. She was just obnoxious and bad tempered. She started barking at me and confronting me just because I didn't understand her mediocre English so well and that was bossy of her to show such behavior towards a fully grown adult whom she doesn't even have the full authority over. Otherwise, the other staffs there were very nice and polite though.
Aug 28, 2015 - Hello, had a brief visit in Stockholm from Finland. Hostel staff was very welcoming and hearty. At some points the capacity and staff`s resources seemed a bit overstreched as the hostel was fully booked basically during the whole of summer season. Spirit in the hostell was uplifting and memorable conversations vwere condunted among traveling folks. As I`m older than the majority of travellers in tese kind of lodgings I was pleased to notice that there were people from all age groups. Hostell life at its best.. return in one beautiful summer´s day..
Apr 07, 2014 - Great place to stay, all the staff are kindly and nice and the price is really good!

Jun 21, 2013 - Despite the staff is really nice, and there's planty of room in the showers, the rooms was not very clean. The hostel however is located very close to the railway station, and not far from the City center, that is in a perfect position. It's surrounded by many shops and restaurants.
Oct 27, 2011 - Very central, and quiet hostel. Nice, helpful staff. Only downside: Most rooms are located in the basement which means no daylight in the rooms.
Jul 03, 2011 - Free wireless,free kitchen+utensils,very safe (password protected locks),ample space. All very good, more than expected. Apart from room in basement, very hot and no ventilation. Take a room on ground floor or above.
A very good an d convenient hostel - strongly recommended :)
