The staff that worked there were very friendly and fantastic! Turning a 747 into a hotel/hostel is an ingenious idea, and it was the highlight of my trip to Stockholm! It's super easy to get to with the airport hotel shuttle bus that's free. And the WiFi, cafe, and little unique touches were amazing (like the swing below the tail of the plane!). I can't wait to come back again soon!!!!! This was my first hostel, and I was extremely impressed with the cleanliness and style.

The experience is interesting but the night was noiseful. The room is confortable. The bathroom are well cleaned. The breakfast is good but not enough choice. It's a little too expensive.

Fantastic and unique concept, which didn't disappoint. Not the best value-for-money option at Arlanda - Radisson Blu opposite can offer good quality ccommodation at cheaper prices.

Everything here was good. I stayed for only a night. But if they had facilities for cooking available, it would have added to convenience level.

My room was booked as a Single Room with shared bathroom. Once I arrived I was told that my room was in the carriage wheel (on the outside), and that the "front desk" didn't know why my reservation said Single Room, shared bathroom when their computer stated carriage wheel accommodation. I was offered another room for an additional 200 Swedish Crowns which I turned down. I did not enjoy the remote room, and would not recommend this accommodation as you do not experience the Jumbo stay.

Great place, nice atmosphere and good rooms. One thing that could be improved is to have recycling containers for the guests to use, now everything is just thrown into one bin.

I was charged twice for the one night stay we had. Once that is resolved, I have only good things to say. My son and I loved our night at Jumbo Stay. The attendant who greeted us was truly kind and welcoming.

Saw the video on youtube that breakfast is served like an airline food (in packing and tray). But we're disappointed to find that our breakfast was nothing like that. It was a regular way in the cafe. Plus the food selection was very poor. But overall we like staying at Jumbo Stay. Good and spacious bed. And a unique concept !

Perfect for an overnight stop-over. Comfortable beds, nice chilled atmosphere and breakfast was fantastic. Only thing was that we couldn't turn the air-conditioning off, but it wasn't so bad for us to ask at reception. Will definitely recommend as the the character and decor and generally novelty of the hostel was fantastic as well as everything else. Thank you.

I was asking for that someone could wake me to get my flight but it was not possible. Not good! Apart from that I liked it.

The 2 "poor" notifications dependes on the terrible heat in the sleeping cabin. The temperature was approximately 23 degress. We told the reception and he confirmed the termostat was put on 23 degress. Later during the evening it was reputedly put to 20 degress - but we did´nt note any difference. We could hardly sleep at all. I recommend you put the termostat at 18 degrees. If anybody should feel cold, it´s better to provide them with warm blankets, than causing everybody stay awake, sweating.

This is a must stay location for anyone that has an interest in commercial aviation. The convenient location at the airport is fantastic if you need an affordable overnight location in Stockholm. Free bus to/from the terminal is nice factor. Breakfast was great and served from 3am - fantastic for those like me with early flights. Staff was amazing and helpful. I highly recommend this location.
