Booked a separate 2 bed. Turns out to be in a room that is small that my luggage didn’t even fit in the room. Bed was super tiny too.

Sorry we did not meet your expectations.Since the room you booked is very small we have uploaded several photos to give guests a feeling for the room.We have even named the room "Sleep Box" to highlight that it is different.

The best bang for your buck in Lund
This was the second time staying at Winstrup. This hotel, in my opinion, is the best bang for your buck in Lund. You are minutes from the train station and busses to all of Sweden. You are close to the university. You are a short walk away from Malmborgs (grocery store) and they are opened until 23.00 every day. AND, it's a great place to meet people.

The hostel itself is nicely located near the center of Lund. Check-in information was provided in an email and all was clear. The shared rooms and bedroom were very clean. The mattresses could use an upgrade. They were clean aswell, but not really supporting.

Quite basic but cost effective, my room had four beds, but I was not told how many other people would be staying there (that would be helpful).

Love everything except security.
I love everything about this place except the security. The front door code unchanged, the room code unchanged. There’s no front desk receptionist. The people previously stayed can easily come back into the room. I’m not comfortable with the security at all.

Quiet gem in central Lund
This is a quiet gem very close to Lund central station and about five minute walk to just about anything in the heart of Lund. I am in my 50’s and usually do not stay in hostels. That said, this one sounded great for location and from reviews. The owner was terrific in communicating by email and let me know that I needed to request a padlock if needed or a towel. That was very helpful because that was not included in the information on hotels.com. The hostel is clean, sparkling clean actually. I stayed in the women’s room with eight cozy cubby’s for beds and an attached private bathroom with 4 sinks, 3 stalls, and two showers. The room is quite spacious and there is lots of storage. The common area is very nice, with lots of seating and the kitchen is well organized and I felt quite at home in it. The beds are a single mattress which I liked because I like a more firm bed. The pillow is comfortable but not puffy so if you like big fat pillows you may want to see about requesting an extra. There is a privacy curtain on the bed so when others are in the room with you then you can create a private space. The best thing about this hotel is how economical it is! Sweden can be expensive and here you can stay for many days and you won’t break the bank. I highly recommend this hotel!

Easy to get to from the train station. Large room, and very quiet. The curtain on the bunks are nice, but can feel a little claustrophobic.

Good location, good room, snoring room mates
Good place and good value, but it can be a night mare if you have a loudly snoring room mate. The hotel should offer snore-free rooms or offer earplugs with each room

clean hostel in city centre
Winstrup is a hostel where you sleep 6 or 8 persons in a room. The beds are like small boxes and do give some privacy actually, but you still share the room and bathroom with others. No one snored in my room luckily. As all hostels you can prepare your meals if you wish. This you know when booking, so if you can live with all that you'll have a nice visit!

comfortable and quiet
It was a great experience, especially considering the great price! The beds are comfortable and the little "cubbies" they're in makes them cozy and private. There's plenty of room to sit up inside, along with a reading light, outlet, and small shelf for book, phone, etc. I stayed in the middle of the week and only saw a few other people, who were all quiet and friendly. I was pleasantly surprised that people of all ages were there-- from 20s to retirement age-- and looked as if they were both leisure and business travelers.

Very comfortable for its price. At the time I was there it was mostly filled with university students that had yet to find other Accommodation. Everything went silent before 10.

Medelbra hostel som funkar för kort vistelse
Vandrarhemmet funkar nog för en mycket kort vistelse. Dörrarna i korridoren är tunga och låter mycket när stängs av, ljudisolering är dålig. Sängen är obekväm och rummet är för litet samt saknar fönster. Bodde i mini-hotellet dvs ensam på rummet. Köket däremot är bra utrustad och rent.

Utmärkt hotel i Lund
Mycket bra ställe att sova och vistas på. Flexibelt med stort allrum samt bra toaletter/duschar och möjlighet att laga mat i gemensamt kök. Rent och fräscht överallt. Centralt beläget så ett mycket bra ställe på alla sätt.

Sorry your stay did not live up to your expectations! Unfortunately, we heard nothing from you during your stay so we do not know what we could have done better.We do know there was a problem with the messages we send with door codes and check-in information. This is actually outside our control since Expedia (Hotels.com in this case) does not share your e-mail address with us. We have to send our messages to an e-mail alias given to us by the booking channel. All our messages are sent automatically from our booking system the day before arrival and on the same day as well. They are visible in the conversation history for your booking at Expedia.If there was a problem with Expedia forwarding your messages (we had a few cases during the week) or with the e-mail address entered in the booking we do not know. What we do know is that as soon as we could communicate directly with you our check-in message was received within a few minutes.If there is any other reason for your dissatisfaction we would appreciate if you told us. We always strive to improve on those things we are able to control.

Väldigt bra vistelse på alla sätt! Madrasserna var dock lite tunna så man kände träbotten när man låg ner. Hade varit bättre med tjockare madrasser. Speciellt för dem som har ryggproblem.
