The Visby FĂ€ngelse hostel is a practical place to stay in Visby, well located just outside of the ferry. The vintage wallpaper and historical decor elements are nice and funny, as well as the experience of sleeping in what used to be a prison.
However, there is almost no staff, only staff at the bar somewhat know whatâs happening. There are not enough showers and toilets for the number of guests. Renting sheets and towels is outrageously expensive. The respect of quiet jours (starting at the usual 11pm) for the evening is a myth ; we had to try falling asleep while other guests were partying in the common spaces, which were gross the following morning. We put food in the fridge and one of our yogourts and some fruit mysteriously disappeared.
DÄlig ventilation pÄ rummet , men man fÄr vÀl sÄklart vad man betalar för och det gÀller de allra mesta. Men att det kÀnns som att det Àr nÄ djur eller liknande i tÀcket och bÄde jag och min partner vaknade upp med konstiga röda mÀrken pÄ fötter och ben .
Location on harbor was perfect since we took a boat out of Gotland. Cool place with interesting history. We actually never stay at hostels and weâre pleasantly surprised about the nice people we met in the kitchen. Well equipped kitchen and ICA grocery store was very near.
Only bad thing was their nonexistent communication and others seem to share the opinion. We tried to confirm that our linen order was ok and ask for the door code since office is manned only 10 am -2 pm and check in starts at 3 pm. We tried to call several times on check in day during the office hours, but no one answered. Our friends in Sweden also kept on trying since we had to go to the airport. That was unnecessary excitement and could be easily corrected. I still recommend it tho.
Rummet er kun til EN person!!!! - Ingen plads mellem sengene - Man skal ud pÄ gangen for at fÄ plads til at tage tÞj pÄ. Her forkert at kalde rummet for dobbelt rum.
UtĂŠtte vinduer og der kommer regn ind .
Der er ingen kroge til tÞj pÄ baderummet/toilettet + ingen hylder eller kroge. KÞkkenet ekstremt beskidt, kÞleskab kan ikke lukkes ordentligt.
Generelt meget nedslidt og det mÄ vÊre meget utilfredsstillende for personalet at stÊdda/ rengÞre. MÄske en trend men alle flader burde males og vinduer pudses.
Helt ok sÀngar, trÄngt men var förvarnad
Ok boende rel centralt till det priset
Bör framgÄ bÀttre att sÀngklÀder o frukost ej ingÄr
I det hela ok !
