Para llegar a la habitación había que pasar por el baño
Encontramos chinches, nos fuimos de ahí sin dormir ni una noche.

Nothing actually!
In my two-night stay, the hostel fell short on hygiene and cleanliness. Despite changed linens, I left with my entire body covered in red, itchy spots that persist even a week later. This has led to additional expenses on medicines for treatment. Disappointing experience overall.

La ubicacion fue lo unico que me gusto.
La cama era muy incomoda se sentian los resortes no pude descansar bien, el baño y los espacios comunes estaban sucios y olia mal. Ademas la atencion del personal de recepcion fue muy lento.

Nothing at all
Deceptive pictures that show a functional kitchen, leather couches and a hotel like experience. The place was dirty, the showers were dirty, with only 1 valve to control the flow of premixed water, I couldn't adjust the angle of the low pressure shower head, there was no shelf to put my things so I had to put them on their dirty floor. The bathrooms are closed "for cleaning" from 11am until 5pm so if you are staying for more than 1 night just know that you will have to leave the hostel to use the bathroom for those 6 hours.
The bunk beds were uncomfortable, top bunks have no guard rail to prevent you from falling off, the ladder to climb up hurts your feet to climb and feels extremely unsafe as when you climb down there is nothing to grab on to. I was bitten by bed bugs all over my body and I'm now itching like crazy!! When I woke up my eyes were burning from the amount of co2 in the air and from the lack of ventilation. I would rather spend the night in a jail cell then pay 200 DKK to stay in such a dirty and poorly run "hostel".

Good location. Few min walk to M3 Metro station. Receptionist is so helpful. Early check in allowed. Spacious. Can do minimum cooking
Shower places need to be improved

Lokalizacja oraz cena (porównując z innymi noclegami w Kopenhadze)
W jednym pokoju jest ok 18 łóżek. Każde z nich ma zasłonkę, co pozwala na pewnego rodzaju komfort. Jednak wchodząc tam jest delikatnie mówiąc nieprzyjemny zapach. Każdy trzyma tam swoje brudne, czyste rzecz, obuwie itd. Można sobie to wyobrazić :) . Szafki są, ale tylko kilka i zajęte przez osoby które są tam na dłużej.
Jeżeli chodzi jedynie o przespanie się tam na 1-2 noce to wiele nie potrzeba. Na dłużej jednak są pewne trudności. Na cały hostel są 3 widelce, 3 wielkie talerze, 2 miseczki i kilka kubków. Dosłownie. Byliśmy w 3 osoby i rano trudno było zjeść śniadanie, bo nie było na czym :) . W łazience jest zimno i wygląd nie zachęca. Mam pełną świadomość, że to tani hostel jak na warunki w Kopenhadze. Nie mniej niewiele potrzeba, aby było tam to, czego potrzeba.

Расположение. Тихий район, но недалеко от центра. Уютный номер. Удобные кровати. Чистая постель. Тепло. Кухня со всем минимально необходимым (посуда, холодильник, микроволновка).
Устойчивый запах накуреного. Видимо в номерах разрешено курить. Грязновато. В ванной комнате (умывальник, унитаз) это особенно видно. Мусор не выносится.

The staff said that I was lucky because there was WiFi in my dormitory 👍.
Dirty room, piss and amonia smell from the toilets on one side and smoking area on the other sade of our dormitory with NO WINDOWS and no source of fresh air of any sort.
Dirty floor in the room, fluff and dust under the beds. Suitcase was covered in it.
Dirty kitchen, broken tap, no fridge, not crockery, no reception, no staff.
Long term resident, she said that she's a friend of the owner, was screaming at 3am in our dorm because she forgot it was mixed room, making racist remarks to a male traveller. Very disturbing 😕

lovely location! Very well connected to the city! Tram and bus stops all around the place. Perfectly connected! Loved it :) Thankfully, the bed was comfortable.
The place is so dark and cold. The staff was not friendly as well. For some reason, the pictures looked good! But the rooms and the common bathrooms were wet and shabby. The bathrooms were so smelly and a little disgusting to use. 3x20 beds using the same bathroom facilities is not good at all!

the curtains on the bed
the showers and toilets are absolutely disgusting, and the toilet paper ran out and wasn't replaced.

That you have a curtain at your bed, that’s the one and only positive.
Like everything at this hostel is bad. The whole place is so dirty, you don’t get a real instructions when you arrive, air quality is poor in the dorm. The bathroom, like what the hell! Looks like it wasn’t cleaned for ages. There is no option to dry your hands, the toilets are so tiny you can’t move at all and those are dirty af! The options for breakfast are a joke.

The curtains are such a great solution. You get as much privacy as you can in a hostel.
You only get one USB port next to your bed and it is practically useless as it is very slow.

Toilet is too small
2.0
The property had great location and the staff were okay. I liked that the beds had curtains on them it felt more private.
To be honest it was pretty filthy. The showers and toilets were gross, and barely ever had any toilet roll. We tried to use the communal kitchen twice and both times there was old plates with food on everywhere. As well as the kitchen not being equips with very much; just a microwave and a sink.

I don't mind the shared dormitories (I walk around the city all day long, I want only a comfortable bed for the night), and I often choose this cheap possibility all around the world. The Old Factory was one of the best shared dormitory I've ever seen! Your bed is a tiny but really cozy own place, great idea!
3.0
Its very centrally located, so going anywhere to the tourist locations was very easy. The lady who was a care taker was helpful, attentive. When we booked it was the cheapest option a available in Copenhagen, so considering that the property is passable.
There was no privacy in washroom, even the jails would have proper bathroom. There were literally curtains and some of the showers didn't even have partition, In the bathroom there was nothing to keep our shampoos, or other bottles on, had to keep them on the floor. There's no charging socket near the bedside which is a big downside for someone who is travelling. Although there were sockets in the common area, but its not feasible to sit there and wait for the phone to charge, the usb port given near the bed was so slow, didn't even charge my phone overnight.

Get what you pay for. Cheap and cheerful.
Staff procedure was terrible. Not accommodating nor friendly. Almost ended up without sheets or duvets or anything because on arrival apparently there weren’t any more. To check in you have to knock on a private room.. how you’re supposed to know this I don’t know.

It was in a good spot
There is no kitchen, there is just like a sink and a microwave, the bathrooms are not so clean and there is like no privacy at all. Some of the mattresses were not clean.

Almost nothing. The woman in the reception was polite. Location is not so bad for this price.
Rooms were so bad. People were talking at 1 am. Two people fighted because of one bed. There was non-stop noise of people.
Bathrooms were horrible. Zero privacy. There is almost nothing in the kitchen. If it is not 3 euros per night or something do not stay here!
4.0
The location was very good for my visit
Maybe a fridge in the kitchen would have been good but I can see that it might cause some difficulty’s
