City Lodge Stockholm is a very cozy hostel, with an excellent location at a 10 minute walk from Stockholm main railway station. The premises are pretty small and the owner is planning an expansion. It comprises a small reception and a basement where the lobby, rooms, a kitchen, laundry, toilets, and showers are located. There are not many rooms in the hostel so rooms are a little crowded with dorms.
The hostel is very well cleaned and kept and offers free internet, which is a great advantage. There is a TV set with cable in the lobby. Linen and towels are available at a cost and the kitchen only has one microwave for cooking. Breakfast is not offered.
The staff are simply adorable. They will do anything to make sure you are satisfied. Also, they have a curious practice that is not to allow people to enter the hostel with their shoes. Everybody has to take off shoes upon entrance. Security is a permanent concern and the front door and reception door are both locked at night with electronic seals that only open upon submittance of a PIN number which is given to you upon registration.
