We had a great stay at Generator Stockholm! The location is perfect, walking distance to Central Station and easy to explore the city. The vibe is fun and social, but still comfortable. Our room was clean and modern, bring your towel or pay extra. We had breakfast next door and it was delicious! We were also celebrating a birthday, and they surprised her with a dessert, which made it extra special. I’d definitely stay here again!

Not like other hostels. You do not have a lot of seating area by the reception and also can’t consume food or drinks bought outside the hostel. There is limited opportunity to connect with others and the check in/out process is almost all done by yourself.

Very basic accommodation. There is not much restaurants or cafes in the area and the hostel dining options are very limited. They also do not allow you to bring food inside so that is very inconvenient especially if you're travelling with family, let alone an elderly parent with diabetes. Oh well, maybe we just missed this from the fine print but I don't like it and why would even have a policy like this at all? Not everyone who stays here are backpackers.
I tried to give 3 stars bec of the 2 staff who were accommodating and answered my questions.

This is a very good hostel with an excellent location. I would have given a higher rating if the check-in had gone smoother. The girl at the reception asked for my passport and I was about to hand it to her when she without an explanation just left, leaving me \"hanging\". Besides that, it was a very good experience staying with Generator Stockholm.

Room was clean but my bed was uncomfortable - thin, hard mattress. And the bed frame squeaked noisily every time I got up. Motion sensor-activated bathroom light was a nuisance when someone wanted to use the bathroom in the middle of the night. One of the two elevators broke down during our stay and we had to climb 7 flights of stairs to reach our room. Breakfast was very good especially for SEK 95 and the staff were pleasant.

Dear Generator Team,

I’m writing to share some feedback from my recent stay.

The night before an important business meeting, I spoke with the front desk and was assured that I could use an iron in the laundry room the following morning. I also called in advance to confirm this. However, when I went to the laundry room the next morning, there was no iron available.

This caused a major inconvenience, as I was unable to iron my clothes before my meeting and had to attend looking unprofessional. Given the nature of my visit, this was particularly disappointing.

I value clear and accurate communication, especially when it concerns essential amenities. I hope steps can be taken to ensure other guests don’t experience a similar issue in the future.

Kind regards,
Larenzo Stay

I stayed in an all female 6 person hostel room and I thought it was clean and pretty decent. I will say that their customer service could improve, I brought up some concern over safety because there was police showing up at our hostel room (apparently they were looking for someone) and they pretty much laughed and joked around, jokingly saying “maybe they’re looking for you” and just had me call the police instead of provide any information or re-assurance that the room was safe from that person. If guest are concerned about safety and other potential dangerous guest they should investigate, not laugh and joke around. Luckily the person who they were looking for left.

I had a good one night's sleep in the 6 bed female dorm. The bed was nice and comfy and it had two outlets for chargers. I was able to store my luggage nicely in a locked box under the beds. The only minuses were the bathroom in the room which could use some deep cleaning especially to the shower walls that appeared to have a bit of some type of moldy stuff in them and the fact that the building only had two small elevators so often it was faster to just walk to the fifth floor than to wait for the elevator. The staff were super nice during the stay both in the reception and in the bar/restaurant.
