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.

Our experience was great. Staff was nice, the social space is a great place to stay and socialize with people. Rooms look good, halls are nice too. We liked it very much.
The room was great for the price point, the only exception to this was the lack of a TV and lack of adequate pillows for the bed.

Very friendly, helpful staff. A great bar, which we went to each night. Good location, 15 min walk into centre.
Room was clean, lots of storage and hooks. Could hear people and music in next room, guessing walls quite thin. Beds comfortable with reading lights and storage. They brought bath mat/hand towel when wrote on review. Would have expected towels.
Over all a great hostel, would recommend.
Very good hostel. Clean, great location, close to the train station and right in the city. I wish you could bring your own drinks and food to eat in the shared space but they don’t allow it so you have to eat in your room which is unfortunate. Also need to pay to use the game facilities. Overall very nice though
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.
The hotel was vibrant and full of life. The street outside could be noisy. The rooms were well laid out if sparsley furnished, no tv and hard chairs. Great bathrooms, showers etc
It was a great stay, the only real.downside was having to pay for everything. It was also quite loud until 11pm if you were needing somewhere quiet to stay.
