Birka Hostel

I was worried because I read so many bad reviews about this hotel. I stayed with my sister in a private en suite room. Its actually not too bad regarding the price. The two things we were complaining were firstly, the room was too cold, even tho there was a radiator. We had to be wearing all our clothes while we were sleeping and ended up catching a cold. Secondly, there was no even kettle that we could drink hot water. I would stay here next time again but not in winter.

Stayed in female room. It looked like in photo with shower and toilet, in 3th floor. Pillow and duvet were very old, basically nothing left, should invest to have new ones! That's even because it was very cold, needed to cover my head with duvet. It became warmer later in night time. Located in city centre close to underground.

some staff members nice but some so rude. could be good for backpackers, but not very comfy to couples or families

Lovely! Very kind and accessible and friendly staff. :) The one issue was that the door handle to our room didn't open properly on a regular basis, so sometimes I had to open the door for people, and I had to learn a special way of opening the door handle.

I paid for the breakfast and the bread was green

Excellent location! Size of room was great but only 1 very small pillow per person and my pillow case was dirty.

Nice and very clean room, perfect location! On a hot summer day the room got very hot

It was perfectly adequate and very clean. I felt a little uncomfortable not being able to open the window as it was onto the street used at night by passersby. There was no lock to stop an outsider from climbing into the room. On a hot day it was a little uncomfortable. Other than that it was great.

We stayed in a twin-bed room, with private shower/WC. The room size is just enough for two of us, considering we were out most of the day time. The hostel is centrally located - reaching walking street, old town and central station on foot within 10-15 minutes.

Place is seedy. Appears to be semi perm abode for all of Stockholm's castaways & crackheads. Only plus is free coffee & tea, but even that is nasty. Do spend the 5$ extra to stay at Generator. And breakfast is literal garbage: stale and reheated leftovers. Nasty.
