Good location. Really weird layout of the rooms. Why is the sink in the room and not in the bathroom? Makes no sense and you have to disturb your roomates every time you wash your hands etc. Toilet also didn’t flush properly. Overall a pretty nice hostel. Would be nice with curtains for the beds.

Had a good stay, my first night was in a mixed dorm, which was all guys and me. So i switched to a female dorm, (why are we charged extra for safety???) and met some lovely other female solo travelers. The location is prime, right next to a big park and the famous street with the boats. Its easy to rent bikes and get everywhere in copenhagen, which is the coolest town, super safe too. My only issue was the absence of a kitchen, which would help with the high cost of food in the area.

Hostelworld says

Generator Hostel Copenhagen is in a great central location for exploring the city on foot. This hostel features large, solid under-bed lockers and privacy screens on the bunks and all of their rooms are ensuite. The frequently praised staff are friendly and helpful and are "eager to provide good advice about where to go, what to eat, metro times, etc", according to Hostelworld guests, who tell us their clean rooms are comparable to "staying at a hotel room with a hostel atmosphere."
