10/10 Exceptional

Hotel was in the ideal location, meaning we could walk to any attraction in the city in around 20-25 minutes which was great! Rooms were small but did the job for a long weekend. Everything clean and staff lovely. Bear in mind that it is mainly a hostel so on weekend evenings the bar can be quite lively and the music can be heard from the second floor - wasn’t a problem for us but if you’re a light sleeper bring earplugs! Overall though lovely stay and would stay again

2/10 Poor

Berbat ! Our stay was very disappointing. There were no proper pillows in the room, and the bed springs were sticking out, making it impossible to sleep. This was unacceptable and made our stay very uncomfortable.

Wonderful hostel. Clean, friendly, cheap for Copenhagen, and good vibes all around. The biggest perk is the location. Very walkable to any area you could want to go or the metro/buses. Absolutely would recommend.

6/10 Good

Room was very small for being a Superior king and more than $200. Pillows were under sized. Elevators were slow and far. Halls and people on the street were loud. Staff were relatively friendly. But charging for bag storage when you already charged 200 for the room seems excessive 20 room

Very good location. Small clean room. Breakfast is worth the price. Ask for a room on the side of the yard since the sun warms up the street side on the morning.

Excellent choice for central Copenhagen. Stayed in a private ensuite room for 2 and while maybe not quite at the level of a good hotel everything was perfectly acceptable
