    Pretty good for a hostel

    There was not a lot of daylight due to a lack of windows, and the doors made a loud noise when closing. It would have been good to know in advance that you need to bring your own lock if you want to make sure your stuff doesn't get stolen. Since there was no staff on site, it did not feel super safe leaving my luggage at the hostel after checkout either - it seems quite easy for unauthorized people to get in.

    I really liked the fact that each bed had its own little curtain one could close for a bit more privacy or darkness. The location was great as well - the hostel is close to the train station as well as the city centre, so you can easily walk to all of the main sites but also pop back to the hostel any time during the day if you need a bit of a break. I did not make use of the kitchen, but there is one, and the tables for sitting and making use of the hostel's free wifi were also a plus.

    The door code pad to enter the hostel entrance was kinda of hidden under a white sheet. I guess they painted the wall , but it’s kinda of hard to see the pad

    Self check in experience was really good. My room was without a window however there is a fan and ac. For me it was good experience and the was alone in the room with bunk bed

    There is no daylight in the common rooms. The room doors close pretty loudly and the ceiling is not very sound proof, thus earplugs are a very good idea.

    Very close to the main station as well as the city center. Everything was clean and worked properly in the kitchen and bathrooms. Friendly staff.

    The place was great and there are only a couple minor things: the lack of secure luggage storage for early/late check in and out, and all the doors tended to slam (difficult to prevent making noise) but guests were respectful and kept decent hours during my stay so it didn’t effect my sleep.

    Fantastic location, very close to the train station, restaurants/cafes, parks, and attractions. Plenty of space to cook, eat, and hang out. Several places to enter code and use key, so felt secure. Clean. Fans in room. I was able to enter my room early before check in and used the facilities for a few hours after check out, which was great. Quiet during my stay, even though it looked like all rooms were in use. Although there’s no luggage storage for before check in/after checkout, you are free to leave luggage under the check in desk which is behind one or two doors that require entry codes. There were a lot of bags stored there during the day and it felt pretty safe, especially as the cleaners and other friendly guests were around.

    With the unmanned reception it doesn't feel like a hostel. No real common area or organized activities so it felt very anonymous and there was no communication between travelers. But other than that a nice place to stay.

    Very clean, very good location close to city center and central station, super fast communication via mail (my emails got answered within minutes). I was in a very spacious dorm with many windows and a nice wooden floor. Very quiet.

    Nothing actually. It's exactly as described: a hostel and not a fancy hotel. But it's nice and clean. And friendly

    If you just need an overnight stay and don't want to book one of the expensive hotels, this is a perfect spot. Of course it's a hostel with shared facilities, but it's spotless. Also a large kitchen available, with tables etc., everything clearly explained. Entering with doorcodes, but communication with the owners is perfect and helpful. They think along with you. You can either prepare something to eat for yourself (storage room by name in fridge) or go to the numerous spots around.

    Children’s daycare above acts as an alarm clock in the mid-week with lots of running stamping about - not a relaxing atmosphere or great to be studying in the communal areas but a nice excuse to visit the city library or one of the many coffee shops that is close by.

    Great location in the heart of Lund. Great to have good cooking facilities and was able to do laundry for extra fee. Easy self check in and out.

    Hostel is close to a kinder garden and those children are very very very very very noisy. It’s almost imposible to rest between 8am and 5pm because of them.

    Maybe not the cheapest hostel considering it was off-season but it might not get much cheaper in Scandinavia anyway.

    The room was quite nice. Beds with curtains, light and sockets inside so you don’t have to worry about wanting to read or such if people are sleeping. A big drawer to put your stuff in, + wardrobe to hang coats etc (no lockers though). I was there in February and when I arrived it was totally empty. A couple people arrived in my room on the following day. As it is stated there is no personnel, I was happy with checking in and out by myself as the instructions are clear. But If you want a social experience it might not be the best place, I don’t know how it is in summer though. I had a friend in Lund and ate food from outside with him in the “common area” which has tables, a sofa and the kitchen. The showers and toilets were nice and clean.
