George, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great position, and pretty good performance considering the price. Only the bathroom floot getting quite messy after a shower makes it a little annoying. Also beds made some cracking sounds on some turns. Other things were fine.
Ugur, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel was in a very good location the main lift was a bit slow the bar had run out of crossiants on the morning we came down for breakfast. The room would have benefitted from a hoover and a bath mat

Jørgen Steen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Not enough airflow throughout the hotel. Rooms were clean and simple. Six minute walk from metro. Easy to get to from airport via metro
Dean, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Not worth the value.

We booked a room with two single beds and own bathroom, hence I expected a decent standard level, though it’s a low budget place. The room was really warm, and it was not possible to air out, curtains was dirty, the bed should have been retired 7 years ago, since the comfort was gone and it was screaming for dear life, at any turn. Besides above the staff was really friendly, serviceminded and helpful. The place is located very well, and it’s easy to check in and out.

10/10 Exceptional

Overall great stay!! Would return

Stayed in a 6-bed private room - fantastic price and amazing location! Beds and pillows were comfy. Great activites in the hostel. Downsides were the 1. noise of the nightclub that takes place on a Friday night, it went on until 3am I think 2. The bathroom sink is in the middle of the room and not in the toilet, just makes it loud when you wash your hands in the middle of the night Overall a great stay and I would recommend it and return here!

Please improve the Breakfast

I always choose Generator for good location , nice place friendly staff BUT …. Very disappointed with the very POOR BREAKFAST, juice very watery and fruit from a can very bad taste and very bad , PLEASE, you need to improve the breakfast!! THANK YOU
Blanca, 2-night trip

Great hostel, nice room, large , right in the centre of Copenhagen
Trevor, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Appreciate this was a budget stay but I still expect the room to be clean, which it really wasn’t. The bed was covered in hair and the floor felt really dirty under foot. Would suit backpackers / students more so than families / couples
Natalie, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Generator København, is in a good location where you can reach, each Tourist spot in the City. It is also too far from the metro station
Jonathan, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a 14-hour overnight layover and didnt want to sleep at the airport. The hotels by the airport are insanely expensive but the trains run 24/7, so we decided to try this place out. It's quirky and has wonderful artwork/murals all around. It's so centrally located that we were able to absorb a LOT of the local flavor during just a 2 hour morning walk. Will definitely go back there and spend more time.
Michelle, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Location is good. Night club disturbed. Family room was good for 3 and it was clean. Building and public areas were slightly dirty.
Kari, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Eat elsewhere - good location

Very pool information regarding breakfast. The buffet was terrible. See what you buy before confirming. The room was expensive compared to Copenhagen standart. The location is top notch, definitely the best part.
Mikkel, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Expensive for what you get, great bar

Expensive for what you get. Cleanliness could be better, the wet room bathrooms are cheap and nasty and the bathroom cabinet was pretty scummy Great atmosphere in the bar areas. Would recommend if not intending to do anything other than sleep in the room.
Lee, 2-night trip

STEVEN, 2-night trip

Dennis, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall a good service, clean and with a nice common area.what i didnt like is the store luggage service by payment, infact even for a couple of hours you have to pay for that, and its not cheap,furthermore considering they have several boxex available theyshould offer it for free to the customers.
