Stockholm Hostels

Generator is one of the chain hostels around Europe and it's my first time staying in their Stockholm branch. It's one of the more spacious hostel and the perks of having an ensuit for 6 people means that you don't have to leave the room at night for shower and toilet. I rarely used any of the other amenities but there are plenty facility and events they provide which looked fun. What I would highly recommend is their breakfast, great value if u pre book for a proper meal to start your day in Stockholm.

Hi! I like the service thay give you! Quick to get a answer and easy to understand. You have all the things you need for a good price! People are friendly and you can actually relax to it's karma. The WiFi is good and you can be anywhere in the hostel with connection.! Br

The staff are helpful and friendly, you can store your luggage there, and borrow the hairdryer from the reception. The room is clean and in good condition, bed is comfortable.

I have been there several times, and I have lived here most of the time. I am very close to famous attractions. When I arrive, the traffic is very convenient.

Good value hostel with excellent kitchen and washing facilities and comfortable rooms. Everywhere clean. A friendly welcome with lots of tips for the visitor. Location close to the station very good for our late night arrival, but it's still within walking distance of the main city sights.

DIRTY!!!! No cleaning service: in the three days that I stayed I always saw the same dirt around: Used underwear hanging, used paper on the floor (everywhere, even in the corridor), beard hairs on the only bottle of soap, on the sink and on the sink counter... When on the second day I asked to the reception guy when it should be cleaned, I was told that it had been cleaned the day before (absolutely false since the dirt was always in the same position) and that they had been cleaning at that moment for two hours... (and the only thing I saw done was emptying the bins, by two quite ambiguous people who live in the hostel and the previous evening were drinking alchool in the common all that for sure are no cleaning service staff)... all the dirt was left there. There is no one at reception before 10am or after 6pm. The telephone number doesn't even work, so absolutely don't arrive late Tiny rooms, THE PHOTOS ARE FAKE, there are two bunk beds less than a meter apart. IF you are taller than 1.70 meters you risk continually banging your head against doors, low bathroom vaults and pipes protruding everywhere As if that wasn't enough they ask for 10 euros for sheets and you have to pay if you want to use the locker. only two positive things: 1-being underground (without windows) and with quite thick walls it is quite quiet 2-it's in the center

BEDBUGS! To start with, we are aware this is not a 5 stars hotel and our expectations were not high. The breakfast was not the best but decent, the local staff a little unkind and rough, the shower curtain smelled bad. However, the real problem were bedbugs and the attitude of the staff after it was reported. We noticed insects in the room (we didn’t know at the time what it was) and I ended up being severely bitten. I reported this to the hotel by e-mail after I learnt what it is and after being examined by the doctor. I wanted to make sure they do something about that but they immediately replied there’s no way there are bedbugs in the hotel. Searching for bedbugs should take at least 1 hour (the insects hide) so there is no chance somebody even went to the room to check. I need to use ointment with antibiotics and do disinsection of my apartment in case I transferred bugs from that hotel. It is a costly and unpleasant process and the hotel’s attitude is unacceptable. I went through other comments on booking and we are not the first ones to report that. The personnel’s response is the same, though.

We stayed in the hostel for one night with our three teenage sons en route to Nörrkoping and were very impressed with how clean and organised it was. The staff were all friendly, welcoming and helpful. The food was delicious and the kitchen was well equipped if you wanted to cook. We were glad to be able to access a washing machine. The neighbouring park is lovely and there is easy access to the metro if you want to go into town. We especially appreciated pretty the garden of this hostel and its eco credentials. A nice place to stay!

The only positive thing in this place is the position. The cleaning is poor and the internet is very slow, in fact, in the bottom floor almost absent; it is paid more for anything, for the closet of the closet, towels and old and ruined towels. But apart from this, we are given the room where the lady who takes care of the rooms lives, a very worrying situation: I come out of the hostel and I don't find anything in my bed (leather, towels, clothes and personal articles) at night. I ask for explanations at the reception, and no one knew anything to tell me; after half an hour they finally found a pack containing my items. At 2 p.m. we wake up from a discussion between a young girl who wanted to spend the night there, and staff who could not communicate with her because no one of them, except the girl, spoke English. The lady who takes care of the rooms begins to speak alone and to walk without sense, all this inside our room as if it were two of the afternoon. The second night I go out of the hostel and I find another person in my bed, and to finish in beauty someone stole my tricks from the box but no one knew me anything about it.

The single room that I got is OK for a budget traveler. It's very small, has it's own bathroom, a small TV. Everything you need, basically, but also very basic. It's also a bit worn, but that can be acceptable if the price is low. Breakfast is also basic, but OK. They serve hard boiled eggs. The problem is that Trip.com charged me 596 dollars for 2 nights at this hostel. That is not a price that fits this kind of accommodation! The price at Hotels.com for the same room with check in one day later was half this price. I don't know whether Trip.com or Mosebacke is to blame for this price, but someone took a huge advantage of the shortage of hotel rooms in Stockholm at this time.
