I am very satisfied with my stay, the hostel is very well located, close to the bus stop, the central square and several good cafes and restaurants. The bathroom and shower are inside the room. The reception and service staff are extremely kind and helpful. I was late arriving and checking in, but it was resolved without any problems. I checked out before breakfast and they prepared me a kit to take on the trip. I will definitely stay again, I had nice days in Alkmaar.

The rooms are located around the common area, which is not a problem when guests respect silence after 10pm. A little noise at night, because not everyone has this common sense sometimes, but nothing that bothered me too much.

Perfect location in the centre of town, but down a quiet street, so no noise in the room. Room was tiny with only a stairwell window, and very little hanging space with a small shower room, but we weren't there for the facilities, just some where to sleep whilst visiting relatives. We had a private room so can't comment on the "hostel/dorm" facilities but a lovely building, with very friendly staff and a fantastic breakfast. Beds were super-comfortable with nice pillows and duvets. Nice easy arrangement for night entry and late check in via the key-safe system.

Nothing really to complain about it. You get what you pay for with an excellent breakfast that will keep you going all day!

Beds in the dorms are of good length, I am 1.90m and easily fit, so great. Nice relaxing communal area and great restaurant as part of the property. Right in the centre of Alkmaar and of short walking distance of many fun bars

After few days I started feeling the iron bars below the matras. And you need a bit of good luck with the roommates so that it does not smell like drugs/weed in the room.

I liked the cleanless, the location, and the layout of the hostel. Our bed and pillow were very, very comfortable . The staff members were very helpful and informative. I liked the vibe of the whole place. We did not choose breakfast because plenty of coffee shops are around with quality breakfast I highly recommend this place to everyone who wants to get great value for decent money.

The only thing distracting was the light from the corridor.

Clean rooms, in the historical and old centre of Alkmaar. Train Station, Restaurants and Bars all nearby.

I was there in a quiet period, but all te rooms open to a central place. I'm not sure what happens when people come late in the night. The window next to the door could not be covered. So it was impossible to make the room 100% dark at night. But all minor issue for me.

Good bed, good shower. Kitchen corner for self service coffee/tea, microwave, fridge. We booked double private room, with bathroom, no street view but with window that opens for fresh air. Our room was next to the coffee corner. This will give some noise when busy.

Our room was next to the coffee corner. This will give some noise when busy. Breakfast is ok but not worth 15 euros.

The hostel is near the cheese market every Friday. I stayed in the early summer on June that, although 4 beds room without windows, but the fan is enough air for refreshing. And the staff is so friendly during my stay for one night.

first searching is not easy from my google map walking from the Alkmaar train station around 40 minutes when I have a big luggage.

I absolutely loved it. Everything about my stay was enjoyable - my favourite place I stayed in the Netherlands! The location was so close to the center and just a stone’s away from the cheese market (the reason I went to Alkmaar), the room was private and super clean, and the staff was all friendliness and welcoming. I loved being able to sit in the middle of the hotel and get to know other guests as well!

No complaints - going to come again and recommend to friends.

The hostel is located about 10-15 mins on foot from the train station. The area is pretty, there are lots of shops, restaurants, and pubs nearby. There are also canals. There's free luggage storage available. The bed was comfortable. The wifi worked fine. The staff was nice and helpful.

The price was a bit high, considering it was a bed in a dorm. I feel like for that price, at least a towel should be included. Apart from that, everything was fine.

- great location: 15 minutes walking to train station and 3 minutes to the main square. - clean and nice room and bathroom - there's a mini kitchen where you can make coffee/tea or warm up smth - very delicious breakfast with local Dutch cheese, fruit, yoghurt, peanut butter, jam and coffee. (Maybe important: we got a room for two people for one night and breakfast was included with discount for less then €60.)

It was not problem for us but we didn't have a window in our room. But it was not too warm int he room. We stayed satisfied.
