Reviews of Linné Hostel 1 stars

Location

Not clean, there is no single person that you can find during the check in. They did not send me the password to enter the entrance door. And there was no single person to give me information about keys. I waited two hours. No information. Lack of help to those who needs help and more information about hostel. Sheets were not clean, there was a color on my sheet.

Easy to find, at the very bus stop. Alhough everything is very used in the property, it is very clean.

Beds are quite used ones and need to be changed, no mirror in the room, linen clean but also quite old. Seemes that there are pepole who work in Gotenburg and staying there permanently, first impression was like we are in their apartment not in a hostel.

Good location, for good price

I think sheets of beds or matrasses should be changed already.

Location close to the great park and Linnéstaden. That is it, rest was sh*t. I actually had a picture of the tiny cell on my phone but I had to delete it 'cause it made me remember how horrible a place I stayed at.

Like living in a police cell underground. Tiny bed, one little pillow, thin mattress, unappealing sheets and a worn blanket. Small windows that could not be opened at all. No sound-proofing. Incredibly ugly architecture. Depressing and dismissing, and still rather expensive. We must fight this trend of sub-par lodging that is taking over (especially in Sweden).

Nothing was likeable at Linné Hostel

Beds, Rooms, Bathroom - literally EVERYTHING!

Amazing central location and it was easy to find your way to the nearest tram stop to go and explore the city. The area around felt pretty safe at night as well. It’s a much cheaper alternative to the hotels if you’re wanting to save money. No complaints about the room. It was simple but the beds were comfortable enough.

The walls were a little thin so you could sometimes hear talking through the walls but this wasn’t a big issue for me as I had earplugs. I didn’t see any staff members during my four-night stay which wasn’t a problem for me but it wouldn’t be ideal if you had any problems during the stay and needed to talk to someone. The toilet and shower facilities were clean enough but my nearest shower was broken. The water still worked but there was nowhere to hold the shower head so you had to have it in your hand all the time to use it.

The only positive thing about this place is the location and that's why we chose it. We stayed here because of the Way Out West festival. The bathrooms were old but clean. There were tea bags and instant coffee available.

It's quite run down. Moldy food in the fridge. No mugs. There is no staff and they dont react to the messages sent via booking.com. There is no hair dryer available, I texted the facility but got no reaction. We found insects (spiders and silverfish) in our room. After finding the silverfish that were coming out of the crack in the floor, I texted the facility again, but again no reply. After that we decided to leave the hostel (so we actually stay four nights, not six) and book a different accomodation. "Bonus" is that there is a (probably long-term) tennant living there that hangs out in the common area, acts dodgy and smells really bad.

They werent terrible, but I've been to cleaner bathrooms

It was located in a nice area and was easy to get to

The rooms were very bare and only had the absolute essentials

Location was ok.

Very expensive. Probably because all the city's hotels were full, but still way too expensive for a dirty, tiny room of low quality with bad beds, no aircondition, no breakfast, no tv, no private bathroom, and a lot of noise. We would never stay there if it wasn't the only room available in town, and we had to stay because our train was delayed so we missed the last one home.

The price
