Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
No shampoo or soap in showers, very basic breakfast that frankly was not worth the hassle or expense, beds that had black dots and walls behind beds were really dirty, also loud due to highway (changing the room / direction did not help) and having to sleep with open windows as it was warm in rooms, we will not stay again, too bad as it is a nice old building with big rooms and the receptionist was nice. Also it was quite expensive as we payed extra for both breakfast and bed sheets.

overall a very good experience!

Good place to sleep over. Very friendly and helpful staff (top!), an interesting area with an artisan bakery with the best bread I have ever eaten in Sweden (which does not say much, granted, but it is an exceptional bakery), good and free parking just outside the door. The bed could have been better (squaking), but overall a very good experience.

Expensive for what it was, strange area in distant location from the train station. Nice people working the front desk, but compared to other hostels it seems strange to make someone pay for their sheets and towels.

+ It was very calm in the hostel, even during high season. Good wifi, free parking, good shower, extensive guest kitchen Bed was okay, not great. - I did not like the noise the ventilation system caused. You have to bring your own bed sheets (or they charge 95 for renting) Good to know that the hostel is very close to the E18 a busy high way.

Hostel var fint og rent og køkkenet var veludstyret. Der var rigelig plads i køleskabene og endda en dedikeret kasse Per værelse. Men der manglede liv - der var ingen fællesrum hvor man kunne møde andre gæster. Ingen aktiviteter til børnene.
