The hostel was nice and calm. It also comes with a good parking possibility. The room was really cozy and definitely felt above hostel standards. Be aware though that you need to bring your own bed linen. The location is a bit out of the city. Walking to the center takes about 40-50 mins. But also take a bus (the bus station is around 8 mins walk from the hostel).

Worst place ever

Smelled so bad when we first came in. To say it with very few words, it was the worst experience ever. Definitely not clean, there were stains on the pillows and duvets, and the place did not look like it had been cleaned. The price for the stay was at the lower end - but definitely NOT worth it.

Morgen mad menuen var fint… ikke noget voldsomt stort menu men køkkenet kom med blødkogte og morgenkager til os. Gode råvare og pænt stillet an. Værelserne var rene og sengene var ude mærket. Fælles arialerne fungere fint, af ældre dato men velholdt og rent. Vi havde to dejlige dage i hyggelig omgivelser. Man kan nemt komme med bus til midtbyen, få min gang fra hostelet. Vi kommer gerne igen.

Vask dyner, puder og topmadrasser tiere..

Da jeg ankom fredag kl. 13.15. d. 15.8. var der en lidt mopset kvinde midt i 30'erne?, som med himmelvendte øjne gav mig lov til at bruge toilettet. Da jeg vendte tilbage 16.30. blev jeg mødt af en smilende ung kvinde midt i 20'erne? som var sød og effektiv. Jeg er støvallergier og tænker at puden trænger til vask, dynen brugte jeg ikke, det var for varmt, nøjedes med at have mit eget lagen over mig. Fedt køkken. Godt system med skabene til service mv.. Dørene smækker meget højt, satte en brochure i klemme i min dør så den ikke stod og klaprede. Det lugter indelukket på gangene. Fedt med bad og toilet i et rum. Fint sted ellers..

Både og...

God placering i flotte omgivelser. Desværre lugtede værelset og det var med fælles bag og toilet, hvilket jeg faktisk troede at jeg havde bestilt med eget. Det kan dog selvfølgelig være min egen fejl, men vær lige obs på det. Fælles toilet og bad var dog pæne og rene, med aflukkede bruserum. Stedet er lidt slidt, men ikke så det ikke kan bruges.

Okej boende för en natt

Fint på utsidan, slitet inomhus. Det gemensamma köket var smutsigt, mikrovågsugn och vattenkokare var nästan äckliga. Det var även trångt och ont om arbetsyta, men fint att det fanns ordentlig ugn och spis. Rummet var ok men hade uppskattat fler krokar eller hyllor för kläder. Gemensam wc och dusch var rena och helt okej.

Lav yderdøren.

Dejligt stort værelse og gode senge. Men at ligge lige ud til yderdør som smækker i, hver gang pigerne (på værelset ved siden af) kom hjem fra byen (både kl. 2.30, 5.10 og omkring kl. 8), ja, det var lidt øv. Kan I mon ikke gøre, så døren ikke smækker så hårdt i og ryster halve huset? TAK - for de næste gæsters skyld :)
