Clean, nice room, quiet hotel reasonably priced

You can stay here in a bunk room but I choose a double room which was very clean with a good bathroom. Nice bar and entertainment area downstairs. It’s a hotel mainly for backpackers but not noisy and the location suited me perfectly.

Lovely 3 night stay with breakfast included. Staff were welcoming, friendly and always happy to help. Good facilities and well maintained rooms and common areas. An hrs walk or 20min cycle from the centre but also close to an underground station. Can recommend this hostel for your stay in Copenhagen.
