Good hostel easy to find and a great location, next to fantastic park and the Natural History Museum, worth a visit just to see the Malm whale. Facilities good with an excellent kitchen it’s a shame it’s spoilt by the towrags who steal your food. Good social are next to the kitchen for eating and working, as well as discussing who, had what, stolen

Ich habe mich super wohl gefühlt:) Das Personal ist sehr nett, die Küche groß und geräumig. Die Schließfächer funktionieren modern mit der Zimmerkarte. Am besten fand ich die Toiletten, die gleichzeitig eine Dusche dabei hatten, so hatte man beides "für sich". Ein tolles Hostel!:)

Unfortunately I didn’t enjoy my stay here. My shared room was very cramped and didn’t feel clean. The bed also had a very thin mattress which was uncomfortable. I didn’t find there to be a friendly vibe among the others staying there, plus there were quite a lot of school kids staying who were a bit loud. The communal toilets were very unclean in the evening with hair and water on the floor which was quite horrible. So unfortunate I wouldn’t recommend staying here.

Incredible to have such a well stocked kitchen and a sauna freely available in the evenings. Fairly good location too near Olivedelsgatan for easy tram and bus travel throughout Gothenburg. We even had an upgrade to an ensuite room at a discounted price and the 24/7 reception was very welcoming with lots of advice in the guidebook for places to see in the city.

The facilities were great. The people behind the desk were very kind. However, the atmosphere was a bit lacking.

Das Hostel ist in einem guten und sauberen Zustand. Die Betten müssen selbst bezogen und abgezogen werden, was aber kein großes Problem darstellt. In dem Zimmer konnte ich meinen Reiserucksack nicht wegschließen nur in einem Fach unter dem Bett lagern. Dort hat er mit einer weiteren Tage problemlos reingepasst. Zur Küche kann ich nicht viel sagen, da ich nur eine Nacht dort war. Das Bad war auch in einem guten Zustand. Ich kann das Hostel auf jeden Fall weiter empfehlen.

Au top !! J’ai passé un agréable séjour. Le personnel est à l’écoute et chaleureux. Il y a une cuisine avec un espace commun, un sauna et une salle de sport incluses. Les chambres sont tout ce qu’on attend d’une auberge, quoique un petit peu petites. Par contre, le lit du haut dans la mezzanine est vraiment très bas, ce qui fait qu’en bas, on ne peut pas être assis dans le lit. Pour mon lit, les ports USB ne fonctionnaient pas. Les communs sont propres, les douches/toilettes...

The hostel is a 15 minutes walk from the harbor when you come by ferry. Otherwise, a 30-minute walk from the train station or around 15 minutes by tramway. As many showers as rooms I think, and they're just across the corner. A free kitchen is available. Reception 22 hours a day (from 8 a.m. to 6 a.m.). Free bedlinen, but you've got to make and unmake your own bed. Some lockers in the room just don't work, plus they're quite thin (around 15 cm), so you can't get a carry-on suitcase in.

All in all I had a good stay in Göteborg. The staff was very friendly and I really loved the free sauna :DD The kitchen seemed a little old, but it was absolut okey. But it wasn’t that social (maybe it depended on the winter time). That was a little sad.

The hostel was safe and in a relatively good location. I wasn’t a big fan of the bathrooms since the shower would overflow into the whole room every time it was used and you had to clean up the water afterwards with a squeegee that was kept in there. Wouldn’t have been too much of a problem if that worked well and the drains worked well.

Great stay! Slept really well here, very cozy. Sauna was really nice. Kitchen and common area was great, very good for cooking. Bunks with privacy curtains, light, and outlet were ideal. Location was a little far out from the center but in a really good neighborhood and super walkable/easy access by transit. Grocery store next door was really good too. Staff were friendly and laundry was a good price. Thanks!

The hostel is pretty clean and friendly. It isn’t a social hostel i would say though! Also they ask you to make and undo your own bed which I didn’t particularly love haha but overall the place was a good stay!
