Great location (though the road is pretty busy with cars). Clean and calm, with a laid back vibe. The kitchen is well stocked. It's true there's only 2 toilets and 2 showers, but I never found this to be a problem. The lockers are only big enough for a small purse.

The facilities are average showers and toilets split on two floors, which can be a bit annoying. I stayed in one of the rooms upstairs and the problem is you have to pass to an internal corridor to go to the rooms and this is a seperate area and from what I saw is a passage for offices. So you'll probably come across people in suits when going to toilet or kitchen in the morning. There is lockers to use in the rooms but unfortunately ours were all dirty from one of the guest so no cleanning done

Very cosy dinning/socializing area. Nice staff, plenty of books to borrow all over the place. Would have been nice with a table or shelves or something for small personal things in the dorm and with more toillettes. The computer in the lobby didn't work for internet access or anything except for some city tourist info, which I didn't find helpful at all. A quiet and cosy place, but quite little space everywhere, in dorms, dinning place, bathrooms.. and quite a few funny, yet polite restrictions.

Thanks for your feedback and input. We will look in to how we can organize something in the dorm to put personal things in.Unfortunately there are so many restriction what you are allowed to do in and with the buildings in Old Town. We have not got approval to build more toilletts. Hope you had a good stay in Stockholm and welcome back to us!

Irriterande med toaletterna på övervåningen, skulle finnas på nedre plan också.

Tråkigt att du tyckte det var jobbigt med att det enbart finns toaletter på övervåningen. I Gamla Stan är det många regler gällande vad man för göra i de husen och tyvärr så får vi inte bygga toaletter på nedre plan. Vi hoppas att du hade, trots detta, en bra vistelse på vårt vandrarhem och i Stockholm! Välkommen tillbaka till oss.

we had a very good stay, the only thing that bothers me was the location of the toilets.

The fact that nobody is on duty at night is a problem vis à vis quietness of the hostel. This does not work when you have a bunch of drunk and loud people who have decided to party in the hostel rather than in the surrounding bars.

We had a short, but nice stay at the hostel and we could really imagine coming back next time we are in Stockholm. One small minus though - in our room it was pretty cold, and since it was cold outside too we never got really warm..

We felt the hostel has a very feminine atmosphere, which was very nice and comfortable to stay. Just one thing - it could have been more comfortable if you could prepare our room a little far away from another one with guests (a couple), when there is a vacancy :-)

Location is findable, and it is along the street, so I could went back to hostel from restaurant at night even though I was alone. the kitchen was clean and we can use clean cups and dishes. coffee and tea are free, and they served us pepperkake since it was Christmas season. Stuff was nice, if you ask anything, they will answer kindly. I enjoyed my stay. thank you.

Bizarre set up (showers in the basement, and only two toilets for a whole hostel) but the staff were lovely and the place, although small, was charming and clean.
