🫤 I’ve done a lot of bagpackers place and this one is probably the last you should go. First, I don’t get why you have to pay extra for sheet if you are forbidden to bring your own.

Just put it in the booking price instead of making a fake cheapy price. Also, there is a LOT of people for a minimum of toilets, no bathroom, the sink was out of usage and no soap anywhere to be found. Also, I really don’t find it safe to put my bag on the top of other 50 bags in a room full of electric wires, please consider having a bigger room or multiple storage room. Also, the kitchen is ridiculously small for the amount of people here. Consider going elsewhere, but it is close to the train station, that makes a point.

    Scamming place, refused to check in or cancel your booking until you pay a large extra fee apparently for bed linens that you then have to put on yourself, everyone there felt scammed, rumours of dangers staff that have left and broken back in, they had to keep changing to codes, the owners are obviously terrible and the staff that are forced to scam you are just as miserable, do not stay there, it’s not even cheap! Avoid! I was travelling for 6 months and have never had to do a review warning people to stay away. So dishonest.

    Don’t book this hostel! When we stayed at this hostel there was an incident with one of the people working there. We slept in the women’s dorm and we all woke up because he broke the window from the outside. We were really scared because he came back to hit the window several times and we had to call the police. We did not sleep at all for the rest of the night! Other people staying in the hostel told us that there was a huge fight earlier between the man and the other people from the staff. He had to leave but they did not call the police so he was able to come back. Also when this happened no one from the staff was available to help us even though they knew about the aggressive man. The owner of this hostel apparently doesn’t check who works at his place. Edit after response: That‘s not true. We had to deal with the situation and call the police by ourselves without help from the staff. The violent man was not a guest, he worked there, that’s what the staff told us the morning after.

    I have been there for a night. It has been situated in a very good location. Just 20 minutes walk to Gmala Stam and Normaln. Price is reasonable and staffs are very helpful. Hostel is totally clean. Mattress is great, linen, towel, blanket are so clean. Everything is perfect but beds frames are too old and make bad noise when someone sleep on it during night. It bothered me throughout night while my upper bed neighbour turned around. I know sleeping in dormitories is not easy at all but this kind of noises should be prevented.

    I had a nice stay! Affordable, within walking distance to Gamla Stan, service is nice. They even prepared specialized welcoming cards with our names on! You have to take your shoes off and wear the slippers. Some slippers were smelly and sometimes it was hard to find the other pair. Kitchen area is nice although small. Coffee and tea is on house. You have airfrier, kettle, coffee machine, toaster, and microwave. If you don’t wash your dishes, they charge you some money for each dish. Only thing I didn’t like was the fact that toilets were for everyone’s use, not only for female or male, which is my preference. Staff members are so nice. Common area is a bit small, ehen everyone’s having dinner or just chilling, it might be hard somewhere unoccupied. It’s hard to locate the hostel at first because the banner is relatively small and colors don’t stand out. I would suggest Nomad Cave to use contrast colors. I passed the same road several times without noticing the hostel. Overall, my stay was pleasant, would stay there again if I visited Stockholm again.

    Great spot. Comfy beds. Clean common areas. Felt safe. It’s a hostel for sure, but was perfect for me.

    Enjoy my stay and made many new friends here. The amenities are not the best but good value. It's nearby the Radhuset station so easily access to the city center. The only downside is they forgot to email me the door pass code and made me wait outside at 2 in the morning. Eventually another guest came to my rescue else I would stay outside and see the sunset.

    Cozy hostel in the city center with friendly staff. Everything was clean, there's a kitchen equiped with fridges, stove and microwaves. I also liked that each bed has it's own courtain for more privacy. Such a lovely experience, I highly recommend!

    really nice lokation in a nice street. it's simple but cheap and really reminds of a cave (only small windows) but still nice. there is a kitchen u can use and free tea and coffee :) i met a lot of amazing people and the staff was really friendly and helpfull. it's clean and they have a luggage room and tv that can be used. it looks like there are not enough toilets and showers for all guests but it's fine, i never had to wait :) 10/10 would recommend to stay at in stockholm

    Best Hostel to spend your vacation with friends and family. Very good location with close distance to centrum and all amenities around. Best recommendation.

    The beds are extremely loud and uncomfortable. The blanket and pillow can't even be described as that, they are basically napkins. The room is really loud and if someone is snoring it will be amplified a lot. There is only a small window with no curtain through which light shines in all night. The bathroom situation is horrible (no space, only two sinks for all guests). You will have to carry all your luggage through an extremely tight stair and it will be stored in a free access room with all other guests' luggage. They also don't have female only dorms.

    It’s not safe! There was a violent man cracking the window of our dorm during the night. Edit after response: The hostel staff was not there to help us. We had to call the police ourselves. We are very sure that the man was not just a guest, he worked there. We saw him the days before and it was also confirmed by the hostel staff in the morning that there was a fight with one of the workers.

    Better than expected hostel. Has a good central location. Many restaurants and cafes. Very close to central Stockholm. Hostel offers on tea, coffee and other kitchen utensils for convenience cooking. Pleasant treatment by personal. Don't hesitate to ask, you will always get help. I remember how me, the manager and another colleague got hungry in the middle of the night on Christmas Eve and went out to eat at Max. On the way, our laughter was heard on every street. There were many discussions and funny moments. But it wasn't so easy to find an open Max. Again, Christmas Eve explains everything. Finally we found a place where we could eat at Medborgeplatsen. It was fun and safe! During my entire stay, which was not short, I can say that it was calm and peaceful in the place. No bad incidents. I highly recommend!
