Overall great stay!! Would return

Stayed in a 6-bed private room - fantastic price and amazing location! Beds and pillows were comfy. Great activites in the hostel. Downsides were the 1. noise of the nightclub that takes place on a Friday night, it went on until 3am I think 2. The bathroom sink is in the middle of the room and not in the toilet, just makes it loud when you wash your hands in the middle of the night Overall a great stay and I would recommend it and return here!

We were visiting as a family of four, woth two young ish kids 6 and 9. We had a family room with bunk bed. Having separate shower and toilet was good with the sink in the room. The dining options were good and loved the games tbere. The breakfast was a little limited and the cooked breakfast was sadly not available,due to Oil needing changed in tbe kitchen?! Overall a great experience and tbe staff was friendly. Sadly the light in the showroom wouldn't turn off and was on all night, whi h wasn't great for both nights we were there. This was highlighted to the team, but maintenence had been unable to fix it. Convinent and a good price

Appreciate this was a budget stay but I still expect the room to be clean, which it really wasn’t. The bed was covered in hair and the floor felt really dirty under foot. Would suit backpackers / students more so than families / couples

We had a 14-hour overnight layover and didnt want to sleep at the airport. The hotels by the airport are insanely expensive but the trains run 24/7, so we decided to try this place out. It's quirky and has wonderful artwork/murals all around. It's so centrally located that we were able to absorb a LOT of the local flavor during just a 2 hour morning walk. Will definitely go back there and spend more time.

The property was great for us as a family. We were busy all day and just needed somewhere to rest our heads and feet from all the walking we did. It would have been nice to have towels provided and being British, we’d have loved a kettle for making our own hot drinks. It was clean and warm, the shower was lovely and powerful, and the staff were accommodating. We were early for check in but they kindly offered us a different room which was ready. They warned that being directly above the bar it maybe noisy, especially as we were staying over the weekend, but it was not a problem for us at all.

Rating: ★★☆☆☆ (2/5) I stayed at Generator Hostel last night and had a very mixed experience. Pros: • The staff is absolutely excellent—friendly, helpful, and professional. Full marks to the front desk and service team. • The common areas like the bar and lounge are well-designed and welcoming. • Lockers are convenient and provide a sense of security. Cons: • Dormitory experience was disappointing. Guests were drying their clothes on their beds, which made the room feel messy and unhygienic. • Poor ventilation in the rooms—windows are kept closed due to cold weather, making it stuffy and difficult to breathe, especially for someone with asthma. • Beds are extremely close to each other, leaving almost no personal space. The cramped setup adds to the discomfort. • A lot of snoring and noise makes it hard to sleep in shared rooms. • Bathrooms and toilets are located inside the dorms, which means eight people sharing one small space creates lingering smells and general discomfort. • Elevators are noisy and feel a bit unstable, which doesn’t inspire confidence. Overall: While the staff and common areas are great, the actual sleeping and hygiene conditions in the dorms need serious improvement. Not recommended for anyone sensitive to air quality, noise, or looking for a restful stay.

Eat elsewhere - good location

Very pool information regarding breakfast. The buffet was terrible. See what you buy before confirming. The room was expensive compared to Copenhagen standart. The location is top notch, definitely the best part.
