    Most beds have a little shelf with a USB port for charging your phone, but unfortunately the bed I was given was missing this. Not a big deal, but it was slightly inconvenient.

    The receptionist was extremely helpful and allowed us to check in 2 hours early, which was wonderful. The rooms are very spacious, and linens and towels are included. The bathrooms are also very clean.

    Extras such as washing and breakfast were quite expensive.

    Rooms were very clean and quite spacious. Linens and towels were included which was a bonus. Guest kitchen was also quite nice. The location was incredible -- looking out over Gammla Stan, absolutely beautiful

    It was all good

    Location, gorgeous view across the harbor to the old town. Great location on a forested island minutes from museums, old town, transport and shopping. Very quiet location minutes away from city yet seems far. No bars, restaurants within hearing distance. Great all you can eat breakfast. Friendly staff. Comfy typical STF bed on an old ship, a unique experience at a great price on booking.com

    The kitchen in this part is very small, but good enought to prepare breakfast. You need to go out of building to come to main part of building where are all other rooms, kitchen and living room.

    Hostel is located near center, main atractions could be reached by foot. We stayed in the new part of Hostel, rooms are spacius with own bathroom. Place is quiet. Breakfast is good, a lot of different food. Staff is nice, ready to help.

    Excellent Location & Facilities - Good value for money in Stockholm

    • Bed in 16-Bed Dormitory (Mixed)

    Better lighting needed in the kitchen. That is the only thing that could be better. The rest is down to other guests not observing hostel etiquette.

    Great customer service and facilities in a central location. Every comfort is provided. Kitchen and lounge are great, Oestermalms Foodhall, ICA and Coop within reach and eateries close by. Walking distance to attractions, ferry to Gamla Stan or Djuergarden, 65 bus stop in either direction 2mins walk away, archipelago ferries close by and several free museums behind the hostel. Hairdryer available at reception and laundry facilities although I didn't use these or do breakfast. Family atmosphere with several generations of 1 family on holiday, cosy and homely lounge area with tv, snooker table and plenty of places to sit on each landing. High level of housekeeping and cleanliness.

    The location is perfect, 2 minutes walk a bus stop and easily reach Gamla Stan by bus or only 10-15 minutes walking. There is a habour where you can experience traveling by boat to an amazing theme park Gröna Lund. Accommodation was clean and there’s housekeeping team who clean the property’s hall and common area once a day. There’s a cafeteria next to front desk where you can enjoy coffee and bakery with an appropriate price.

    The location was nice and the room itself cozy. Considering that it had shared bathrooms, it was very nice to have a sink in the room.

    I had to see the castle where the Swedish king lives, Sweden is supposed to be a democracy, not a kingdom. :) :)

    Views from the room were wonderful, the old town and the water in front. Close to everything. However, I have a reservation here, see what I didn't like.

    No mirrors in the showers You have to push a button to have the water in the shower and it doesn’t stay for long, that was a bit annoying (but besides that the shower was good-warm water, enough room to change your clothes as well)

    The location was pretty good, on a beautiful quiet island, between the old town and most of the museums. The room was big, the beds were comfortable (a bit noisy but not too much) and with a great view! There is a sink and a mirror in the room

    Although the location isn’t exactly in the center of the city but the view from the hostel is superb, it is facing right to the old town area and the sea. Also, the staff is very friendly and helpful, room is big and clean, the environment is just peaceful and great that make you want to stay for longer time.

    These are only minors annoyances: The public transport doesn't quite reach the hostel, if traveling with lot of luggage it's tiring. The dorm is "open", sounds travels well, bring ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. There isn't quite enough electric socket for everything in the room. The kitchen is small and get crowded at dinner time.

    I really enjoyed my stay. It's one of the few affordable hostels/hotels in Stockholm and it's good. The location is good to reach the main sights of Stockholm. The dorm room was spacious (no bunk bed!) and you there is a nice division between beds with personal lamp, night table, etc. The kitchen is well furnished.

    Better than you would expect from a hostel. But check if the heating is on in the cold season.

    A big issue was the lack of heating, which led to me getting a cold. I understood that they use central heating, which was not started yet, and appreciated being offered and extra blanket. It's probably good to check the status of heating with the hostel, if you travel during the fall. In retrospect, if I knew there wouldn't be any heating, I would've paid double for a standard hotel room. Still a great place, but really not a great choice for me this time.

    Great location in the center of Stockholm and, at the same time, very quiet. Also great value. Facilities are above what you would expect from a hostel: billiard, lounge in the guest area (in addition to the one from the reception), nice cafe, generally nice and colorful furniture. Functional kitchen and seated area for meals (or work). My room was simple, but included a sink and a few shelves for storage. Comfortable bed, clean linen. Being on the third floor and off season, I enjoyed easy access to bathroom and shower, and there was no notable noise from other guests. The A.F Chapman is as beautiful as you may imagine. It was closed for repairs during my stay, and I was lucky to be allowed to visit it immediately after check-in, as it was still open.

    We knew what we were getting, but if you do not want an upscale hostel vibe with shared bathrooms and no frill rooms look somewhere else. This place is perfect if you want somewhere in a great location with nice shared showers and comfortable beds.

    The location is perfect! Easy to walk to most major sites and is quiet and quaint. The facilities are simple, but a great value and so clean!
