A bit off-centre, ok property for ok price

Location a bit off-centre, with the train station some 10-15min walk and the cuty centre further away on the opposite side of the railtrack. It feels more geared to those traveling by car as pedestrians have to zigzag a bit around the road when coming. The property is ok, there's a bit more wear & tear than in other a&o's I've stayed at. Still, it covers the basics and is fairly clean so may be good enough for a short stay.

Everything was good, clean , and the service were great except two things . There is an indian who works in the section of breakfast , he was impolite. The other thing that i really didn’t like in this hostel is the size of the TV . the size of the TV is close to the ipad 12.9 inches size ! Which is really i hate in this hostel . You can barely see through it

Besværlig elektronisk indtjekning

Selv om indtjekningen skulle være smart ved at ske på mobiltelefonen, blev den vanvittig besværlig. Hotellet havde desuden forsømt at sende mig en indtjekningsformular forud. Det kunne have hjulpet noget.

It's literally on the wrong side of the tracks, but that's not a big deal. It is still within walking distance of the train station, and there is a regular bus that stops right outside the hotel. Otherwise, it's a 'no frills' a&o ho(s)tel that does the job for a night or two.
