Overall great stay!! Would return
Stayed in a 6-bed private room - fantastic price and amazing location! Beds and pillows were comfy. Great activites in the hostel.
Downsides were the 1. noise of the nightclub that takes place on a Friday night, it went on until 3am I think
2. The bathroom sink is in the middle of the room and not in the toilet, just makes it loud when you wash your hands in the middle of the night
Overall a great stay and I would recommend it and return here!

Appreciate this was a budget stay but I still expect the room to be clean, which it really wasn’t. The bed was covered in hair and the floor felt really dirty under foot.
Would suit backpackers / students more so than families / couples

Would not recommend.
Our room was smaller than expected, bathroom sink and shower wasn’t draining properly. Customers have to pay for their luggage to be stored is greedy!
Bright note, the staff was friendly and it was in good walking radius of everything.

Do not stay here if coming with kids!
Terrible experience, definitely not a great place for families, no towels in the room, beds were uncomfortable. Bathroom smelled like piss. This is for sure more of a backpacking trip hostel for college kids.

We had a 14-hour overnight layover and didnt want to sleep at the airport. The hotels by the airport are insanely expensive but the trains run 24/7, so we decided to try this place out. It's quirky and has wonderful artwork/murals all around. It's so centrally located that we were able to absorb a LOT of the local flavor during just a 2 hour morning walk. Will definitely go back there and spend more time.

It was okay, not very clean hotel. We got a room just above the bar and it was very loud, so we went to ask for a different room and the staff was amazing, we got an upgrade to a family room on the 6th floor.

Eat elsewhere - good location
Very pool information regarding breakfast.
The buffet was terrible.
See what you buy before confirming.
The room was expensive compared to Copenhagen standart.
The location is top notch, definitely the best part.

This is a hostel, but it’s a fairly comfortable and clean one. Service is fine, food is fine, but overall it’s a rather barebones experience. The bedding wasn’t great and the mattresses weren’t super comfy, but the location and overall convenience made it a solid stay.
