The best thing about this hostel is the location. For that reason I would stay again if I go back to Copenhagen. The room wasn't bad. There was a sink and tv in it but you have to rent sheets from them. The sheets I got were really old and stained. There is also a common area which was nice. The showers were disgusting and cold. There was a sign pointing to lockers but there were only some cubby holes with no doors. There was really no secure place to put your stuff.

All in all - you get what you pay for :) The hostel facilities are located in the basement, the bunk beds are quite bad - squeeking all night long, as soon as anybody moves a finger, the bed starts swinging around. Which is especially bad if you're on top of the bunk - so make sure you get the lower one. I could not understand the hostel requirement for bed linens, as the ones you can rent are really bad and sleeping bags normally are much cleaner.

The location is excellent. Staff are very friendly and helpful. The only downsides were that the rooms are very noisy, you can hear everything going on outside. Also the showers are not hot but just about warm and are in the basement with the lockers which is very cold, small and a little bit dirty. I found the bed fine, not great but comfortable. Overall it is great value for money and I would stay there again.

Scandinavia is expensive so the price was high, and it wasn't a super social hostel, but it was nice and cozy and the location was alright.

Tiny rooms with only one electric socket. The beds are small and not clean. The lockers are not located in the room, but in the basement. However they are not secure enough, so the administration asks to leave values at the reception (I didn't). Breakfast, bed linen and a lock are not included in the price. Otherwise, it's quite a good hostel for the price. WiFi works. You can buy a breakfast voucher for 50 dkk. I spent 3 nights there. And I'm not going to stay there again.

The reception is nice, and for the price (very good for Copenhagen), everything is all right. Of course, the beds are not so good, the showers neither, and there is no kitchen (only a common place where you can have boiled water), but it's a cheap hostel! The breakfast during the weekend is very good, and we asked to have it earlier because of our flight without problem.

All in all nice hostel, very good breakfast, good location but poor security


83%

The staff have the 'Copenhagen Nice' attitude and the bathrooms are quite clean. The breakfast is delicious and the beds are doable! The location is near the shopping district and only 10 minutes from Central Station and 2 from Norreport which makes access to the entire city a breeze. It's on a decently quiet street.

Location is perfect. Prise is good. Breakfest is super. Sitting area was not very comfortable. And you have to give your roomkey away every time you live he hostel, it was annoying. Overall i think it is ok place to stay when low budget. I also think that with small investment it is easy to make it more people friendly.

My experience at Hotel Jorgensen was awful. Despite the fact that we had to leave the hotel for five hours during the day for cleaning, the hotel did not seem to be any cleaner than when we had first left. Beds and bathrooms were not clean. As a female on her own, I did not feel safe. An older man forced himself into my room and asked that he come in to spend the night with me. Although I managed to get him out and lock the door, there was nothing further I could do. I checked out early.

Showers were awful! Breakfast was really nice and good (bread, cornflakes, mysli, fruits, chocolade, coffee, tea, juice). Rooms weren\'t so small that I thought and we sleep in a 8 persons dormitory. But the rooms were really cold and there were not so goof lighting so in the evening you couldn\'t see a lot. Some of staff was really nice. Really good location!

Staff not that friendly, guests don't feel welcome. I am a tourism major who pays close atetion to details and that's clearly not a way to treat a customer. Only one key per room for a 10 bed room, please make more!

This is not like a youth hostel but just a cheap hotel, so don't expect meeting lots of people and spending joyful time together in a common room. However it's a very quiet place just neat metro and S-train station, so the location is perfect and the place is ideal for those who just want to have a proper sleep. Since I was leaving early the night receptionist forgot to prepare breakfast for me, what we actually agreed upon, but never mind, we all want to sleep at night, even at work =)

Definitely one of the more inexpensive options in Copenhagen, it's fine as a place to sleep and the free breakfast is really quite good. In terms of facilities, bed quality, social areas, lockers, showers, etc... it's not the nicest. So, long story short: On a strict budget? Check it out for sure. Have bit more to spend on accommodations? Maybe somewhere else. There are no dealbreaker issues though.
