a&o Copenhagen Nørrebro

Terrible service and below average matresses

The room was not really clean. The bedroom uncomfortable. Quality and price not matching.

I was placed in a room close to the road, if you’re light sleeper you will be wake up with the noise outside.

No password on the WiFi, easy to connect, works in the rooms. The quietness rules of the hostel are a joke. There are signs asking to keep it down at 20–06. No one seems to follow them, even less so to enforce them, especially when there’s no staff at the reception at night. Two roommates check-in at my room at 01:30 and made really loud ready for bed, thank you very much. I heard kids running down the corridor, wouldn’t you know it. The lobby features people playing music at the same time. I never got a good sleep. The rooms are alright, but it’s strange that the bathroom didn’t come with even a cheap swooping tool, so the floor was constantly flooded. There’s no A/C or strong ventilation in the rooms, windows don’t fully open either for burglar reasons. In July, the rooms are strangely cooler during the day and are impossible to sleep in at night (at least on the upper bunk): to create any draft, the door must be open, meaning no noise isolation from the corridor with the running kids. 15 DKK for a towel is like charging for a glass of water at a restaurant: most people travel towelless and do need towels anyway. ID as a deposit for the basic kitchenware is… unusual. Because this was the cheapest option available in Copenhagen at the time, I shouldn’t complain, but compared to other hostels I’ve been to, I find it suffers from its scale: it’s just too… industrial, where no one is really invested in making the stay of each and and every guest as comfortable as possible.

Really nice private room. For the price great value with clean linens and big bathroom.
