Absolutely the best hostel I've ever stayed in. Super clean, cool, full of great ideas. Between the free noodles and the leftover fridge, you could eat for free most nights. The free sauna is great as well.

They stole my iPad during my stay at City BackPackers. I leave my iPad at the top of my luggage just besides my bed, aprox. 15cm from me, with clothes on top so nobody see it. When I woke up the iPad wasnt there and the staff of the hostel didnt care about it and told me that "I should sleep with my iPad under mi pillow''. Thanks City BackPackers Staff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This hostel is amazing! I have no complains about it. Well located, staff was so kind, bedrooms were clean and secure, there where a lot of bathrooms and a really nice area to meet people and have a good time. Computers available, nice sauna! Worth every SEK spent! :) Keep going like this guys and you'll have only success.

It was possible to enter the kitchen and common room without key codes etc when reception was opened. One night a person who did not have a room in the hostel was sleeping in the common room and was not removed by the staff. We suspect that the next night she did not have a room either, but managed to slip in our room to sleep there for free. Thus, we did not feel very safe.

I couldn't imagine a better hostel! Worth every penny! Great atmosphere, very clean, a lot of facilities- huge kitchen with free pasta, sauna, many couches to sit and just chill. Everything very high quality. People that are staying there are mostly young travelers with great attitude so u can always have a nice chat with someone.

Very cool hostel ! The best thing is the kitchen : very large and super-equiped, you can cook what you want and eat with other people. The location is great too : 15 min walk to Gamla Stan (Old city), it is next to a commercial street, and next to a supermarket. Our only problem was the room : we ordered a private room cause we're a couple, but the room was equiped with bunk beds, and not twin beds ! Plus, there was no windows ! Fortunatly the ventilation system was good.

Great Hostel! The best I've ever stayed in! Good place to meet new people. Great facilities (lots of bathrooms, private showers..) Staff was really really helpful. Only bad thing: the Wifi was usually really bad in the mornings.

Only problem was with the Asian family staying there for the simple fact it isn't really a hostel where a family should be staying at especially on a weekend as was shown when they annoyed a large amount of hostels guests like myself by forcing us to change behaviour despite the fact they were the only ones who found us to be a problem

Simply the best possible location. Maybe would have been good if the Hostel had more planned events or tours, but it's very easy to meet people and the Stockholm tourist offices can take care of what to see.

as a lot of people are cooking different things in the kitchen, it had quite an uncomfortable smell in the kitchen and tv-area

Really good hostel. I loved how there were lots of different areas, so if one wasn't right for you you could try another!
