To stay the night along Göta kanal in the building where workers of the industry stayed with their families some 200 years ago is fantastic experience. Our hostel holds eight apartments, they all have their own kitchen and bedroom. Toliets and showers and laundry machines are nearby. And then you have our café with our famous waffles among other tasteful stuff. Close to the hostel you find a playground, a football field and green areas. There are beautiful walks around us. We also have a few bikes that you can borrow if you want to explore the rest of Motala. There is also a bike rental facility nearby. Call or email us for more  information.
