The bar opposite is VERY NOISY - until 3.30am (on a Thursday night). Noise cancelling headphones over earplugs didn't block the noise. The lift is small, but it works. The staff were happy to help with any problems.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

It was convenient to have the check in process completely digital and the keys in an app. The capsule beds were clean and nice with socket, light and AC. The facilities were however a bit dirty and there was only three toilets and one sink for the whole floor to share - and the floor had like 15 rooms. So bathroom/hygiene access could definitely be improved.

Verified review

8/10 Very good

The hostel is right in the middle of downtown, with a few bars and a lot of restaurants around it. The window is tight, but if your room is facing the road, it can be quite noisy especially weekend nights. Overall the whole building is clean and secure, as you only use one passcode to enter the building, your floor, and your room. So you don't need to carry any key. However, you need to have your own padlock to lock your stuff under the bunk bed and towel if you don't want to pay to rent their towel. There's enough showers (4 showers) and toilets (3 toilets) per floor if it's not busy in the morning, so it should be manageable.

Great location, wonderful staff who can’t do enough to help you. Showers and toilet are a bit basic, for the price this place is an absolute steal, will be staying again next time I visit Copenhagen

I had to pay for a towel and soap never understood why because we pay to stay the night. The was no good ventilation inside the capsule it was very warm. The staff decent. The only good thing is the location

First time staying in a hostel and it was great! Clean, comfortable and staff was very welcoming! Location is close to so many things to see and do.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

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.

Fantastic location! Walkable to major city spots. Hostel is above a bar/club, we stayed there over the weekend and couldn’t hear any noises. The place is well kept.

First time in a hostel and if they're all this good I'll do it again! Staff was all super relaxed and ready to help and explain anything. The bed was one of the comfiest I've ever slept in and YES it was clean!
Verified review

6/10 Good

Very good central location to a lot of buses and trains. I slept in a double pod. There’s no storage available in rooms. You have to pay to use lockers daily. Although it is clean, this property doesn’t have a separate lounge outside it’s bar/restaurant. It’s nice and quiet during the day but if you’re just trying to relax or get some work done at night, it can get loud.
Verified review

4/10 Fair

The private capsule was not too clean this time. Some earlier guest had left her trashes under the matress and the cleaner had apparently missed them. Room lock was not working, corridor info screens were broken, shared toilet was missing parts, etc. Nights were cold since windows are kept open in the capsule rooms all the time. The staff was quite nice and relaxed and the bar was fine. Downstairs in the bar there is a chillout room which I found out when leaving and it was too late to try it.
Verified review

6/10 Good

I was ok. The shared bathroom was a disgusting mess most of the time. The door code device on the door failed repeatedly causing me to be locked out in the hallway a couple times. On the bright side, the location is great and if you’re looking for a shared hostel room, the pod beds are nice
Verified review

6/10 Good

Can’t beat the location. Even for a hostel this was the most minimal, kind of grimy property I have ever stayed at. We booked a private bathroom, and the shower was a trickle from a shower head above the toilet and sink. The toilet paper had to be taken out of the space, so it didn’t get soaked when showering. The overhead light was also burned out. It was a bit like camping.
