Vandrarhem Uppsala - Portalgatan

Big kitchen, many fridges. Facilities equipped well enough to allow for the washing of clothes. Very quiet. Bed was big enough, could probably have 2 people for this room.

The window didn't open all the way.

Clean good place calm

Nothing

Straightforward check in and out. Clean, neat room with everything needed. Good kitchen facilities. Good wifi. Quiet, residential location within an easy walk to the center. For the price paid I got what I expected.

The mattress was not particularly comfortable - I had a little trouble sleeping. The toilet and the shower are a single room, not even a separate stall. To be fair, this may have been visible in the pictures when I made the booking and I just forgot.

It was a functional place to stay. Clean and streamlined. Almost everything worked. Kitchen facilities were good enabling self-catering and food storage. Beneath my window was a small patch of greenery with buttercup flowers in full bloom!

Everything coloured in various shades of grey - bleak Quite impersonal with no staff on premises. Too many locked doors and too many codes to remember. In fact too many doors altogether. Several doors required you to use both hands to operate two different handles. I could not get out the front door the first time. I had to wait until someone came in using the code. I was worried about how people would exit the building in case of fire with so many heavy and difficult doors to manage. Overheated. I had to leave the window open to have any chance of sleeping - not ideal since I was on the ground floor and it would be easy for someone to climb in that window. (Everywhere I've stayed in Sweden has been overheated).
