“EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE”
Great location, close to shopping and the Maritime Museum - the main reason for my visit. The laundry, lounge and kitchen facilities are a welcome addition. Very friendly and helpful staff. Ar short notice, they were happy to allow me to add an extra day onto my booked stay.

“Comfortable for a short visit, would not stay more than 2 nights.”
I booked a double room as a single traveller and was expecting to share the room with someone else. Not sure if it was luck or on purpose, but I ended up being by myself, which gave me extar privacy. The lady at the reception allowed me to check in a bit earlier than planned and she was absolutely lovely. Thank you!

“Very nice”
It was better then we expected, the lady in the reception was very very nice and our room was clean. We were a bit skeptical to the thought of sharing bathrooms, but they were very clean and it was no problems. It's a very nice place to stay

Did not feel safe - a group of foreign men in the room next door having a party with bottles and talking. Did not use the room at all. Went away and found another place to sleep in Karlshamn.

I stayed here at the beginning and end of my week long trip in a different destination, it was perfect as a safe shelter. One time I checked in at night when no staff were present, but I could do it by myself thanks to instructions in the email. The bedrooms are clean, simple, and comfortable. The shared spaces (kitchen, bathrooms, showers, dining room) were also clean and there weren't many other guests there while I was visiting, so I felt at home. Coffee, tea, and all kitchen utensils were available. Bikes can be safely left in an enclosed area. Located close to everything: marine museum, train station, etc.

“Would book again!”
The location is very central, just around the corner from the central pedestrian area, supermarket, restaurant, cafés and the train station are within walking distance. The place was very clean, the kitchen was large and had everything I needed. The price was lower than the hotel where I stayed at in Karlskrona before, and very clean compared to the expensive hotel. Next time, I would choose the hostel right away. Obviously, there are more shared rooms (bathroom and kitchen), but I am willing to make that sacrifice.
