Guest reviews for Winstrup Hostel
"Perfect location, everything was super clean, dorms were quite large"
"Matrassen were a bit thin, but all the other facilities were great. Especially the kitchen was very large, clean, and had all the amenities you could think off. The only point for improvement would be how International travellers can reach the staff if something comes up. The staff gives you a phone number that you can call 24/7, but since it is a Swedish number, it does not work with an international sim card. You need to convert the number first by adding some digits. This was quite a hassle to figure out, but it did work in the end. Maybe it would be helpful to add those steps in the instructions for check in for future guests."
"The self check-in system works super easily. The entrance area with tables is also great; I was able to hold a meeting there without any problems. The room was my best hostel experience – quiet, peaceful, and comfortable for sleeping. The bed was good, and the curtains in the pods provided privacy and controlled the light – for example, when someone needed to turn on the light. The bathrooms were clean and organized. The location is also excellent, close to the train station, shops, and restaurants."
"I missed having a trash can for cans. That's all."
"I traveled in very low season and it was pretty much empty (Obviously I wasn't there for the socialization aspect). The room was entirely for me and everything was super clean, including the toilets"
"Aucun."
"Great location (about 4 min on foot from the train station). Super easy check in and check out, calm, well organized."

"Big room, ok bed with some privacy thanks to the curtain, clean bathrooms, close to restaurants and shops"
"No natural light in the kitchen/common area"
"I stayed in a 4-bed room and really liked it. Each bed had a curtain, which made it feel private — super convenient. The room was cozy and quiet. A great choice if you want to save money but still feel comfortable. In general, everything was comfortable and quite clean."
"It would be better if towels were included in the price, since the stay isn’t that cheap."
"I really liked the fact that each bed had its own little curtain one could close for a bit more privacy or darkness. The location was great as well - the hostel is close to the train station as well as the city centre, so you can easily walk to all of the main sites but also pop back to the hostel any time during the day if you need a bit of a break. I did not make use of the kitchen, but there is one, and the tables for sitting and making use of the hostel's free wifi were also a plus."
"There was not a lot of daylight due to a lack of windows, and the doors made a loud noise when closing. It would have been good to know in advance that you need to bring your own lock if you want to make sure your stuff doesn't get stolen. Since there was no staff on site, it did not feel super safe leaving my luggage at the hostel after checkout either - it seems quite easy for unauthorized people to get in."
"Fantastic location, very close to the train station, restaurants/cafes, parks, and attractions. Plenty of space to cook, eat, and hang out. Several places to enter code and use key, so felt secure. Clean. Fans in room. I was able to enter my room early before check in and used the facilities for a few hours after check out, which was great. Quiet during my stay, even though it looked like all rooms were in use. Although there’s no luggage storage for before check in/after checkout, you are free to leave luggage under the check in desk which is behind one or two doors that require entry codes. There were a lot of bags stored there during the day and it felt pretty safe, especially as the cleaners and other friendly guests were around."
"The place was great and there are only a couple minor things: the lack of secure luggage storage for early/late check in and out, and all the doors tended to slam (difficult to prevent making noise) but guests were respectful and kept decent hours during my stay so it didn’t effect my sleep."
"The very kind and extremely helpful assistance offered me by Jacob the manager. He helped sort out a problem I created for myself due to lack of good vision and got it all sorted and settled with me. Also the staff were very helpful in other ways. I have recommended Winstrup to my colleagues on music tours from Scotland and Ireland of which they will likely make goos use of when they come to Sweden to play. Tapaleidh mor!"

Guest reviews
"Lovely breakfast with homemade bread, delicius. Beautiful houses and seaside view. Very friendly staff. The room was simple but comfortable with an extra heater in it."
"Die Lage des Hauses ist besonders vorteilhaft: nah an Ystad (10 Min. ins Zentrum) und an der Küste (4 Min.), dabei kaum Bebauung in der Nachbarschaft, extrem ruhige Umgebung und trotz Durchgangsstraße kaum merklicher Verkehr. Das Haus selbst ist sehr geräumig und bietet einer Familie mit Kindern genügend Raum. Besonders schön ist die abgeschirmte Südterrasse mit einem weiträumigen Blick über Felder und Wald mit Hasen und Rehen. TV mit nationalen Kanälen und BBC News war ausreichend, um im Urlaub etwas informiert zu bleiben, außerdem lief das Internet stabil."
"I loved the local decor and history behind the room I stayed in! Checking in and out was both easy and the breakfast was excellent! They were also kind enough to upgrade my room to a bigger one all on their own!I can't wait to visit again!"

"A beautiful small hotel that includes a delicious breakfast. The host is engaging and friendly. It’s in a great location with easy walking to the city center. Parking is just down the street and is inexpensive. The part we really enjoyed was the garden where we drank wine and shared a simple meal from local stores after a day biking to Ales Stenar."

"The location is excellent. Johan was extremely helpful in sending check in and parking instructions. Parking was convenient in a private lot less 5 minutes walking from the hotel. We enjoyed the included buffet breakfast at the cafe next to the hotel."

"Hyggelig, dejlig personlighed velkomst. Vi fik kaffe/kage ved ankomsten. Gratis chips og slik på værelset. Natmad i et køleskab man selv hentede. Skøn morgenmad 😍"
