Reviews of Halmstad Hotell & Vandrarhem Kaptenshamn 3 stars

Easy to find, close to everything

The window was locked, no fresh air

The location is fine.

The first night was OK but the second evening when we tried to sleep there was some water running in the pipes over the ceiling so loudly that we could not get asleep -- like a noisy waterfall or a running toilet water all the time and does not stop (I have a video with that sound). The positive point is that when I called the owners they gave us another room for that night, so thanks for this!

A beautiful building in a quiet and green area, close to the station but a bit further away from the city's center. So I think the hostel prices were correct. Not everything is up to the latest standards but I did not see that as an important issue.

Distance to the city center.

Location was great being close to railway station & 1km from city centre.

Key code entry with instructions only in Swedish. Room was very small ,& shared bathroom. Very few staying there...I had looked forward to chatting with other travellers.

The location was good. The bed was very comfortable.

The bathroom was dirty and smelled bad.

The bed was comfortable and I had someone gret sleep.

The building was on the river in an isolated spot - I wouldn't want go walk there alone at night. It was quite institutionalised and notices about trashing rooms. Facilities were jaded and not very nice. My room had full size fridge freezer next to the bed - also something ws dripping from the ceiling onto the bed. Overall - if you can get a cheap price and want a hostel type experience - then not too bad.

Staff was very nice and friendly ( small slim man with foreign background I guess) I have stayed there several times before He was the best staff I met

Everything was good

I love the location of the hostel being very close to the train station and a convenience store. My twin room was comfortable and quiet and the shared bathroom was adequate. The Hostel provides a well-equipped kitchen and a comfortable lounge and dining area. There is also a nice courtyard off the breakfast room. A buffet breakfast is provided at an extra price. I thought it was ok but a little expensive. I mostly provided my own breakfast, which suited my needs. Johanna is an excellent receptionist and is ably supported by Isabelle.

No complaints from me. I have enjoyed previous stays here.

Great location not too far from the centre. The bathrooms were tidy. It's a charming but rather old building.

For the entire floor, there was only 1 toilet, and 1 shower and toilet combo. I was lucky it wasn't too busy because otherwise there would have been such a large wait for the shower. The building was old, and things like the window sills really needed some maintainence. The room felt like a shoebox, literally just the bed and a desk with just enough space to open your suitcase before you reached the door

It is simple and nice, specially the location.

The reception is only through phone, they answer any minute I call but Little waste of time... the door are over heavy and very noisy.
