Well I picked this hostel based on the reviews here and a few photos I was shown. The hostel is decent. But do not expect anything over the top. The cleanliness is okay. Corridor and rooms can be smelly during summer. In room ventilation is very bad it got very hot to the point you couldn't fall asleep. Nevertheless it's... More

I stayed here for one night, as I found it to be closer to the metro than my last hostel. So obviously I didn't use much of the features this place has to offer. I can tell you that if you are looking for a hostel close to the metro, not commuter trains, close to many affordable restaurants, many cool... More

This is the ultimate hostel experience for me. I have booked this hotle without breakfast but it was ok like that. You have showers is the rooms and is it perfect if you travel solo or with friends. The people from the reception are verry cool and they will help you with anything that you need. Next to the hostel... More

Very good hostel. Rooms are very comfortable and everything looks very new. Showers, toilets are OK. Free wi-fi. Location is perfect, almost in the center of night life. Train station is kinda far away, but it takes only 20-25 minutes to get there by foot.

Everything is okay. Just need to await of some few points: 1) Lift is small and slow. Need to wait for a few minutes although the hostels only have about 5 storeys. 2) There is no kettle in the room and restaurants refused to provided hot water for free.

We stayed 3 nights in a private quad room. The best asset of Generator Copenhagen is the perfect location (metro, bike rental, city center, clubbing, shopping etc.) and it's a great place to meet other travelers. On Friday night there was even a big party going on in the bar/club area. Staff is really friendly and helpful. I can also... More

Stayed in a pretty sweet 2bd private room. The amenities and room were all very modern. Everything in the hostel was spotless. The 2nd floor is the most social area. That's where you can check in, they have a bar, food, couches, a tv, wi-fi, computers, and a pool table. They also have a urinal video game in the men's... More

Visited Copenhagen in April 2013 for Stag Do (we're not as young as we used to be!). The Generator Hostel was nicely priced given that we only needed somewhere to put our heads down and have a shower etc. What we got for our money was a lot more. From our arrival the staff were excellent and the rooms airy... More

I have passed a week in generator hostel Copenhagen, and founded everything very nice! The receptionists were very kind, breakfast good for a student and the room little, but hospitable. The only negative thing is the price: too high. But unfortunately standard for Copenhagen. In conclusion: approved!
