Ljusa fina rum och ett fantastiskt fint och välordnat kök att använda. Närheten till Fårö är ett plus också.

quiet and calming

a bit expensive

Reasonable price level. Close to ferryport to Fårö island. Clean rooms with everything needed for a short stay.

To get the key you have to go to one building and the actual accommodation is in another building almost half a kilometer away.

Near hotel standard, including ensuite shower/WC and freshly renovated rooms. Near hotel prices too, when you consider the 150 Skr extra for towels and sheets (or bring your own). There is no staff on-site but they look by regularly, and the Swedes are excellent at self-organisation. The well equipped kitchen remained spotless throughout my eight day stay, in spite of several families cooking there regularly. It would scarcely work in any other country. The location is at first a bit off-putting, a former large military camp with lots of unused buildings and spaces. But I grew to like the calm, the open spaces, a partial view of the sea. There is a hidden bathing place (and sauna!) left over by the military, about five minutes walk from the Wandrerhem, outwardly not very attractive but the water is lovely. Food? Cook your own! There is a nearby ICA shop which sells everything from rubber boots to mangos and lobster. It seems to be always open, seven days a week in summer. (But wine needs to be ordered in advance!) There are numerous snack bars too but my experience of eating out in Sweden has largely been dismal: it is not just the poor quality of the cooking, but an almost complete lack of service. The Swedes do not seem to care. As an early riser, my day started every morning with a self-cooked al fresco breakfast in the morning sun, watching the hares at play. You could do a BBQ, the equipment is there, if you could get some fellow-guests organised. They were surprised that I was staying eight nights - but why not? There is quiet and calm galore, wonderful landscapes, quite different from mainland Sweden, There is great cycling on the adjacent island of Farö (seven minute crossing, free for cars too) or on the Gotland mainland. Regular bus to lovely Visby - if appropriate, ask for the special pensioners' fare of 30 crowns. I was sorry to leave - which is about the best recommendation.

Clean and tidy and a great host! And great value for the money.

Basic, functional accomodation for a reasonable price. Nothing fancy, but serviceable.

Facilities and spaces were enough to ensure a comfortable stay. The patio was enjoyable. A nice supermarket is relatively close to the hostel.

Nothing relevant, considering the category of accommodation. It's a little difficult to reach because of lack of signs on the road.
