I'm not sure if "you get what you pay for" applies here, but I still think we deserved better heating, especially if temperatures outside reached -15 C. It was so cold in the room that ice formed INSIDE the window. This was a very basic hostel. The only thing I liked here was the location. It was just a few... More

The room heating did not work, and the blanket provided by the hotel was not sufficient. Not all of the sinks had running hot water. So it was a freezing existence. The hotel reception specially during check-in time (first half of the day) seemed very cold and non-cooperative. First, offered room(s) with bad conditions. In order to appear convincing, they...

We stayed here at the Hostel Part. We had a room for two persons with "seaview". The room was small but also cheap. It had everything we needed. The beds are quite big. The showers and toilets, which are shared by all guests were clean. We had breakfast on the boat, there was a lot we could choose and also... More

Cheap, a little scruffy but fun and what a location. Easy and pleasant walk to Gamla Stan or Sodermalm's cool bars. A decent priced pint at the bar looking over the water to Gamla Stan was particularly enjoyable. Only downside was the lack of wifi access in the cabins, in the bar it was great.

Gustav Af Klint was the cheapest hotel (even cheaper than hostels) that I could find months in advance to our trip to Stockholm. Myself and a friend stayed in the 'hotel' end for two nights, in a twin cabin (remember, it is a moored boat - not a purpose built hotel) which had a bunk bed, large wardrobe, a desk/bench... More

I was shocked by the prices of hotels in Stockholm, so I booked the cheapest I could find (which was still 30 euro's p.p., so 60 per twin room... AND they charge you separately for the sheets: 6 euro's p.p. and breakfast: about 8 euro's. So you finally pay 88 as a couple... we could have gone to the Marriott... More

I stayed at the Gustav in May this year. Its a moored boat in Sodermalm, close to Gamla Stan which is the the old city. Its easy to access from the tunnelbana (metro) - about a 5 minute walk down to the quayside. I stayed in the hotel part of the boat - I had my own room with a... More

The boat is divided into two parts, one is a hotel and another one is youth hostel. I haven't seen youth hostel rooms and cannot comment on their cleaniness and comfort. However, my experience of spending two nights in dormitory was incredible. It would not be an exacerbation if I say that it has been the worst experience of my... More
