Room was very small but very clean. I was surprised because hallways and access areas were not so. Staff was extremely helpful. Great location. Would stay again because price was right.

The room was clean but it looked larger in the photos than the tiny one given to us. (Misleading) Lifts are way too slow. Staff are friendly and helpful. Overall a lovely place to stay in the heart of beautiful Copenhagen.

I stayed here two times and used mix room with shower inside the room. Enjoyed buffet breakfast both times even though not enough variations available. Very nice reception and cafe area to enjoy happy hours before going out to the city. Very close to restaurants, public transportation. Staffs are super helpful. If you need any extra help just ask nicely and you will receive good help. Storage facility (need to pay) is good.

8/10 Very good

The bar is pretty cool, but the prices are not for backpackers at all. They also don't have a microwave or any oven to heat food from elsewhere, which usually makes the trip cheaper; in fact, they don't allow food from outside. The bed is comfortable, and the locker has plenty of space. The shower was a bit clogged.

Fantastic, great location and friendly staff
Verified review

6/10 Good

It does the trick if you want a cheap bed in a great location. However, be prepared: The flors in the lounge area were so sticky; Communal bathrooms were also very gross; The room itself was small for 6 people but it worked; bed was comfy; Room was very hot, no blanket needed; Windows open only 6cm, and it was as a nice cool evening outside but that didn’t matter. Definitely a social party hostel if thats what you’re looking for. I wasn’t and was able to go to bed early no problem. Ear plugs are a must for shared rooms.

Hotel was in the ideal location, meaning we could walk to any attraction in the city in around 20-25 minutes which was great! Rooms were small but did the job for a long weekend. Everything clean and staff lovely. Bear in mind that it is mainly a hostel so on weekend evenings the bar can be quite lively and the music can be heard from the second floor - wasn’t a problem for us but if you’re a light sleeper bring earplugs! Overall though lovely stay and would stay again

Wonderful hostel. Clean, friendly, cheap for Copenhagen, and good vibes all around. The biggest perk is the location. Very walkable to any area you could want to go or the metro/buses. Absolutely would recommend.
