Staff was friendly and the property was very clean.
A big downside however was that the hostel is located right under a rail line, which makes the entire building shudder whenever a train passes by overhead.
Though I only stayed over for a short while, I was satisfied with my stay.

It's great for the most part
It's good for the price and central location, plus the staff is really nice. The most negative thing is noisy trains that shakes the beds and the fact that in winter it's either freezing or like a sauna, it did work well for me and I had no issues sleeping, however for other people these things might be an issue.

When we first arrived l was startled by the volume of the train overhead and couldn’t imagine sleeping through it, however it was fine (admittedly we were very tired). It was fine sharing the lounge/kitchen area. There is a supermarket very close by

Do not book this place!!
Terrible location behind of the train railway.. from 5:00 to 00:30 you hear very strong noise from the train every 3 minutes.. I do not know how the authorities permit a Hostel under the train railway..
Apart of the staff that is friendly, the rest was one of worst experience I ever had

Shakes from the metro!
I didn’t read any reviews before booking as I was in a hurry, but be aware!! - the hostel is directly under a metro so it feels like a mini earthquake every 5 minutes! But luckily the trains stop running for some hours during night, and earplugs are provided :) other than that the hostel is super!! Clean, modern, comfortable, convenient, has good privacy and individual lamp, power outlet and curtains, and has a nice shared kitchen!

Top tier hostle
The train is passing over quite often, but was not that difficult to sleep in as some of the reviews mentioned. The hostel was actually quite nice, but was not a super social place, but super nice to sleep

If you want a special tour, recoment hostel
Disadvantages
1. The train passes through the roof of the accommodation. The building is shaking. The beds and walls are shaking. Thanks to this, you can wake up early. 2. Even if you use it for 5 days, you only get one towel.
Advantage
1. Kindness. 2. Clean. It was a really special experience. If you want a special experience, I recommend it.

Right underneath a busy train line, so it gets very noisy and shaky every 3-5 minutes. If you can’t sleep with loud noise, dont stay here even though they give you free ear plugs. Small side note, you also have to make your own bed. Niche experience, but I had a scare because my bag was taken from my locker somehow and then it reappeared in the locker beside mine 16 hours later. Even contacted the police to file a missing item report but luckily the staff said they found it the following day. One positive was the lounge area was nice and large.

Fine værelser. Hostellet ligger lige under en togstation, så man kan høre toget hele tiden, men det gør de også en opmærksom på ved indtjekning.

호스텔 프라이빗 룸으로 2박 묵었어요.
방은 널찍하니 좋았구요. 욕조가 있는 화장실이라는 점도 좋았습니다.
호스텔이 다 그런지는 모르겠는데 신발을 벗고 다녀야해요. 대신 일회용 슬리퍼는 무제한 공급이 됩니다. 음식물 섭취도 방 내에서는 불가해서 공용공간 라운지?에서 섭취해야합니다. 신발 벗고다니는거랑 방 내에서 음식물 섭취불가한건 좀 불편하긴했지만 호스텔인것을 감안했을때 이정도 컨디션 좋은 방을 쓰면 이런 불편함은 문제가 되지 않았습니다. 나중엔 좀 익숙해지기도 했구요.
그리고 리뷰에서 꽤보이는 전철 소음.
전철소음 5분10분에 한대씩 지나가서 꽤 자주 나는 편이예요. 근데 싼값에 위치적으로도 꽤 훌륭한 곳이다보니 불평은 사치라고 생각했구요. 저 같은경우에는 소음이 딱히 거슬리지 않아서 지내는데 전혀 문제 없었습니다. 이 호스텔이 전철 레일 바로 아래에 지어진거기때문에 소음+진동으로 전달되서 사실 귀마개가 의미가 없어요. 예민하신분들은 딴데가세요. 저는 재방문의사 있어요.

Selv om det var et hostel og der var advarsel om at man kunne høre togtrafik, så fremgik det ikke, at hotellet lå lige under skinnerne, fire spor i alt. Der var for voldsom en larm, selv for tog-entusiaster der bor i en larmende by.
