    One of the rooms we bookee was a 3 beds room and that smelled so bad when we first got there. It was n In the beds, in the comforter, in the pillow. Im glad we had our out bedsheets to mask the smell. It smelt like ingrown sweat. Like very sweaty people sleept in that room without any bedsheets. After sprayen a bunch of perfume and deodorant and opening all the windows it smelt fine and good enough to sleep in. The other room smelt normal!

    It was very quite and peacful when sleeping, you could here very little Other people or the outside. The best were comfortable and the comunal bathroom were well cleaned

    A cosy stay in the middle of the forest
    • Leisure trip

    • Quadruple Room with Private Bathroom

    The room was rather small but the expected size for a hostel.

    The hostel is in the middle of the forest, so it as amazing nature around it. Still it has excellent transport links. There are bus stops about 10 min walking with busses that get you anywhere in the city. You can also bike around since the area is very bicycle-friendly. The staff was super friendly and helpful and they gave us detailed instructions for accessing our room even when we arrived much later than the check-in time. The communication with the hotel was super easy! We booked the family room and it was nice to have a room for ourselves and a private bathroom.

    The taps in the toilets stopped working after a few seconds and we would have to switch to a different tap. They would start working again after a short break but it was a little frustrating. The toilets were very clean and had lovely hot water for showers :)

    The location was very good for us, close to the city via bus but far enough away that it wasn’t noisy. Staff were very friendly and helpful!

    I didn't like the pillows (synthepon lumps) and blankets (heavy), as well as the lack of glasses in the room (only in the common kitchen, where it didn't smell very good).

    The hostel is located near the center, it is easy to get there by bus. Small rooms, heat up quickly. The exit from the room immediately leads to the terrace, on which it was easy to place two baby carriages. Friendly staff.

    Having to rent the bedding is the only thing I didn't like. We were happy with everything else!

    The location was excellent. Situated in a beautiful quiet forest area ideal for refreshing nature walks and close to the seaside which was lovely. It was also close to the city centre, a walkable distance from the main attractions. The free WiFi was excellent and the staff were super helpful. Breakfast was good (not a hot cooked meal) but fresh warm bread with a selection of delicious spreads and toppings with tea and coffee for an additional price if you choose this option. It also has a nice kitchen with cookware and tableware should you choose to make your own meals. You'll have to get your own food supplies. A really lovely low budget place to stay ideal for families with children as there are games and sports activities available to lend for free or rent. A tuck shop selling snacks and drinks is available on site but opens at certain hours of the day.

    Perfect location in the middle of a beautiful coastside park, yet at walking distance from Aarhus city centre. Very clean room with adequate space and its own bathroom with great shower. The use of a modern and well equipped kitchen is included in the price. Reasonable rates (for Denmark). We usually don't stay in hostels (we're a middle aged couple...) and booked this hostel because it was the only accommodation we found that was still reasonably affordable. But we were pleasantly surprised and would return here even if we would not be on a budget.
