Vandrarhem level accommodation but above hotel level price

For a vandrarhem it was of okay. The breakfast basket was okay. Best part was the customer service which was friendly and nice.

Lovely location, friendly welcome, a very comfortable stay

Staying at the hostel was a lovely experience. Comfortable, clean rooms and with the availability of a shared cosy dining and sitting area in an adjacent building. The island location is very special. We got off the ferry at the wrong place but were very kindly assisted with our bags- thank you again! We pre-ordered breakfast which was also very nice.

Liked Svartsö but felt completely ripped off in this apology for a hotel/hostel.

Location was pleasant enough, but no facilities nearby. Nice woodland setting.

Fantastic stay, will hopefully be back some day. Calm, quiet, beautiful escape from the city.

Breakfast was nice however there were no gluten free options, which would have been good. The staff were super helpful and friendly too, which made a big difference as English speaking tourists. We loved the island and especially riding on the bikes. Perhaps it would be a good idea to build the bike hire into the Accomodation package, because renting the bikes daily is expensive.

Heaven on earth. 7h00

Svartsö is a corner of heaven that's fallen on earth. The stf hostel is a good place to explore this little island by bike, hiking, sailing or even swimming. It's functional, located 1 minute from the ferry dock. Bring your own food (or you'll have to eat frozen dinners found on location, book them to guarantee). They have bikes, but the nearest (and only) shop is 20 minutes away.

A perfect island get away

The service was something extra ordinary. They offered to pick us up from the harbor and we got access to the room a lot before the official check in time. We got even a late check out. The breakfast was really nicely put and according to our allergies. We got recommendations about what to do on the island. Everybody was really nice and service minded.
