Brilliant location, onsite bar was great. The keyless system was overly complex to get set up and the app did not work, but we were given a manual code to use instead and that was fine. On our floor there were only three toilets so ended up queuing during the morning rush. However there was a sink in the room. Room was clean, and they offered activities to get involved in. I would stay here again!

we stayed in a bunkbed room with the bathroom/shower combo. luckily on the first floor so not horribly hot (we were there in July) but smokers galore right under our window and lots of noise around during the nighttime. the shower was the bathroom itself and was the first time I'd used one. kinda inconvenient with the water but it all dried by morning with the door open. wouldn't stay here again. it was mostly fine but we didn't sleep well.

The location was excellent. The value was likely reasonable considering the high costs in Copenhagen. Having only one sink for an entire floor of residents is poor design. I lowered my score to reflect that having only one sink for maybe 50 people per floor isn’t sufficient for a shared space. I was content with my stay and appreciate the friendly staff.

This time the private capsule was clean but small as expected with the price. Some noises during the night, but nothing too wild. Downstairs bar and the live music there was great. Good choice if you do not need too much sleeping space and are lucky enough to get a clean capsule. Hostel staff was nice and friendly.
