This is a hostel, but it masquerades as a hotel. It has the reception area and multi-lingual staff of a hotel, great security (video cameras in all corridors and key-cards for the doors), and a tv and internet connection in every room (just plug in your laptop and away you go, it's free!). It is very well-kept and clean and all the beds are free-standing (no bunks). There are also two computers free for use in the reception area if you want to get your internet fix.
The location is pretty good, about 1-2 km West of the Central Station. You can get there alright on foot, but if you have a decent size pack or bags I'd recommend taking the Metro (it is one block from the Fridhemsplan Metro station).
The kitchen facilities are first class, with two well-equipped kitchens right next to each other and a dining room. It also has fridges and a freezer for use. The price is about the same or cheaper than other hostels in Stockholm, but this one is nicer than many of them. The place is huge, but it is often fairly quiet, even in the high season.
If you want somewhere clean, secure and quiet to stay that feels like a hotel but costs the same as a hostel, this is a good choice.
