The hostel occupies a few buildings of a larger old military barracks complex, which also includes a film institute and a circus museum (advertised as free for hostel guests but with very limited hours). Beds are comfy enough, rooms are clean and have windows. A common kitchen offers plenty of space and utensils. Staff was helpful. Internet computers in office. Overall, it is a relaxing and historical area surrounded by farmland, not a loud party place. There is a nearby bus stop into Copenhagen but the quicker method is usually by commuter train. The combination of walk (hopefully in good weather) and train, twice daily, will cost one hour of your time and around $20 for two riders, which should be factored into your choice to stay here. Note the "clip" cards are no longer valid on this train route but you can save one-third the cost by purchasing a 24-hour card late one night and using it for three rides (i.e 8pm, 9am, 7pm). Directions from central station: Take any train line that stops at "Avedore" station. Exit and follow the long row of tall white apartment buildings (two grocery stores there), cross over a bridge, walk through some woods to an intersection light. Continue walking straight and turn left at first roadway. Hostel office is near the end of the street on left. Note: this suburb apparently has NO cash ATM machines so get your money in Copenhagen.
