Comfortable Hostel maintained by friendly helpful young lady. Each time we visit she is happy at her work. She is very helpful with requests.
Arrived after hours for reception but instructions by email to get in and keys in the room made check in easy.
About what I expected for a hostel - simple, had all the necessities - nothing extra clean but clean enough - did have a nice big sunny common room on the upper floor where I could work on my laptop (good wifi connection) and get a free cup of hot tea. I did book a single room which was not a single room but a room for 5 (2 bunks and a single) that was reserved only for me. Good location with easy public bus to get to it from the main train station and easy walking distance to the large pubic park in Götheburg as well as other good sights. Enjoyed my stay (one night) - good value for the money.
Awful sleep and needs some TLC, though very cheap.
I booked myself a single room, for an admittedly low price of around 25 GBP per night, but the room itself left a lot to be desired. The curtains had a massive gap that meant there was loads of light in the morning (it made me wake up at around 6:30am local time) which was impossible to close, and I found that regardless of this, the bed was very uncomfortable to sleep in (maybe it was just the pillow); there was also a bit of noise from the road although it was not too bad. Far more concerning was that of the two beds, when I tried to move one of them slightly one of the legs came off, I suspect that had I slept in it I would quite possibly have had a rather nasty injury from it.
I never saw anybody at reception the whole time I was there so I was unable to tell them about it. There weren't really any facilities in general apart from a shared kitchen area and a couple of shower rooms, although it's perfectly reasonable for there not to be given the low price. I don't intend to stay here again, even with the location being very convenient (right next to a bus stop with regular service) and suggest steering clear of this place to be honest!
