tl;dr
Not
really
thought
out
but
a
good
value
for
a
short
stay
in
nice
location.
First
the
good
stuff.
The
location
is
conveniently
close
to
the
central
station,
there
are
many
food
options
on
Vasagatan.
The
Wi-Fi
causes
no
problems
no
at
all.
The
property
is
rather
clean
including
bathrooms/restrooms.
The
interior
is
neat
and
pleasant.
The
value
is
above
expectations.
Then
the
bad
stuff.
The
property
is
kinda
hard
to
find.
There
are
several
entrances
to
the
building
and
the
"Crafoord
Place"
sign
just
blends
in
with
the
environment.
I
found
myself
trying
for
the
wrong
door
for
quite
some
time.
Also,
the
streets
are
laid
out
on
a
hill,
so
you
might
have
to
go
uphill
with
your
backpack
quite
a
bit.
The
hostel
is
not
properly
thought
out:
many
improvements
could
be
made
which
do
not
require
large
investments.
First
off,
a
shoes
off
policy
is
a
disaster.
Stockholm
is
a
clean
city
and
there's
absolutely
no
need
to
require
people
to
take
their
shoes
off.
Make
sure
to
bring
your
own
cheapest
slippers,
otherwise
you'll
have
to
wear
the
used
ones
which
are
torn
and
dirty.
Moreover,
the
smell
you
get
from
that
shoe
rack
near
the
entrance
is
terrible.
Let
people
wear
their
damn
shoes
inside,
nothing
bad
is
going
to
happen.
The
lockers
in
the
room
are
narrow
and
tall,
practically
useless.
The
proper
ones
are
in
the
corridor,
so
you
have
to
walk
back
and
forth
to
put
your
stuff.
Make
sure
to
bring
your
own
padlock,
otherwise
you'll
have
to
buy
it.
The
reception
people
are
gone
after
17:00,
you'll
have
to
self
check-in.
If
you
need
to
rent
a
towel,
tough
luck.
There
are
many
other
little
things
like
no
paper
towels
in
the
kitchen,
strangely
fixed
sockets
on
the
bed
shelf
making
it
hard
to
use
them,
or
certain
showers
which
provide
absolutely
no
place
to
put
your
stuff
if
you
don't
want
it
to
be
wet.
