Clean, convenient hostel. It's overpriced through.

It's a combined bar / hotel. The bouncer at the door with a shaved head is a sociopath. Tried to start a fight with me as I politely walked past him to enter the hostel. Telling me he would kill me...all I said was "I am staying here tonight" A real piece of s***

very central location and every where is a quick walk. the property has good facilities all very nice and clean

the noise in the building due to the pub and v busy street. some work such as double glazing and sound proofing can help but the staff always provided the ear plugs which is very helpful. i was living in Room A and the lock kept on getting stuck between ladder and causing a lot of disturbance maybe this can fixed. and they only change sheet’s probably at checkout. but overall its a great place and I will stay here again for sure.

I had an amazing experience! The beds are super comfortable, everything was really clean and organised, and the location couldn’t have been better for a first-time tourist in Amsterdam who wanted to explore the city by walking around aimlessly, especially at night. The staff are incredibly friendly and always ready to help with tips and suggestions. (Special shoutout to Peter, the philosophical Italian—I had such a great time chatting with you at reception for hours. You’re awesome!) Overall, 10/10! I’ll definitely be back. Just one heads-up for future female guests: try not to bring large suitcases. The female dorm is on the top floor, and there are a lot of stairs to climb. They’re steep and narrow, so travel light if you can!

Everything was great!

The reception staff are so lovely! Immediately, you feel welcome and at home. It puts you in a good mood for the rest of your trip. Location is perfect for everything. Rooms were fine and the pods did a very good job of keeping sound out and felt private. Pods also had usb ports for charging. Showers were clean enough I guess. Not much problem with queues, but sometimes it was difficult to work showers around the cleaning of the rooms. Towels available for deposit and you can change daily although there is no need to change your towel daily, every 2 days at most.

The stay was perfect. My only feedback would be to put a system in place for the showers while cleaning takes place. The cleaners work for a long time and it's not clear if or what showers can be used. The cleaners seemed a bit frustrated when people are doing stuff while they try to clean, I appreciate they have a difficult job and the rooms were always clean and tidy. Keep one shower open at a time and have a sign on the open shower. make cleaning showers a priority to make them available as quickly as possible.

The location couldn’t be better—it’s absolutely perfect for exploring the city. It’s close to major attractions and makes getting around super convenient. The staff are incredibly friendly and always willing to help, which made my stay even better. As a solo traveler on a tight budget, this place was ideal and offers excellent value for money.

There’s a pub right below the property, so it can get noisy at night. If you’re a light sleeper, it might be hard to fall asleep. Additionally, if you have a large suitcase, storage can be a bit challenging due to the limited space available.

Location is great and hostel is impeccably clean - rooms and shared bathrooms alike. A lot of privacy in the dorms with the capsule style beds, though this does take away from the social aspects of dorm style rooms. Luggage storage was helpful and discounts at attached bar and nearby grocery store was a nice plus.

While the rooms had good AC, air flow within the cubicles, especially those furthest from the ac unit, was poor - we were very hot at night. The lights in the dorm are motion sensor but very bright and VERY sensitive. They were on most of the night because any movement from the cubbies that touched the curtains at the end turned the lights on. A lack of kitchen area or common area wasn’t ideal for socializing or for allowing guests to save any money by buying their own food or drinks at a grocery store etc. Top bunks had to store their bags in lockers out in the hallway, which was also a bit inconvenient, and bathrooms aren’t on every floor so depending on room and gender you needed to go up or down a flight of *incredibly* steep stairs.

I stayed in a 6 bed- female only dorm and it was amazing! The aesthetic of the hostel is really cute and it was right in the red light district and near central station. On a Friday night the area is really lively. The hostel itself was really clean & the staff were super friendly. Showers were great too.

The mattresses were kind of thin and didn’t support my back well so my back did end up hurting. There is no option to receive breakfast but there is a microwave, small fridge and grocery store near by.

I recently stayed at a hostel in downtown Amsterdam, and it was my first time staying in a hostel. Initially, I was a bit worried, but that all changed when I arrived. The receptionist, a friendly and welcoming Italian girl, made me feel right at home. I forgot to ask for her name, but she was incredibly helpful and patient, answering all of my questions. After checking in, I met some wonderful people who were staying in the same room. We quickly became friends, sharing stories and travel tips. We even went out for dinner and drinks together later that night, which turned out to be one of the highlights of my trip to Amsterdam. This hostel is a perfect choice for anyone looking to make new friends while traveling. Highly recommended!

I stayed in one of the hostel pods for 2 nights. The pods are a good size, but I am 150cm so tall people might find them a bit small. The bathrooms were really clean throughout almost the whole duration of my stay. The only time they weren't freshly clean was on Saturday morning, but I showered right after another person. Staff were incredibly friendly the whole time, and even online communication (messages via booking) were replied to within a few hours. The hostel provides a locker padlock and a towel for a 5 euro deposit each, which you get back in cash on their return. You can get a fresh towel as often as you want. Given the hostel is right on the main red light district street, the rooms are very quiet and you can't really hear any sounds from the nightlife outside. This was great for me as I travelled for work.

I'm not a young person, so I found the staircase is really narrow and especially difficult to navigate with luggage. I was in a top bunk pod and found the ladder quite difficult to get up (again, I am not a limber young lady anymore). Next time I will request a bottom bunk to avoid this. The walls between the pods are really thin. You could hear a mouse fart on the other side of the room. The curtain at the entrance of the pods could also benefit from some magnets to hold the sides closed. The lockers are very handy and you get one specific to your bed number. While they are tall/wide, they are also very shallow. There also isn't much room in the corridor or the dormitory to pack/unpack any bags and cases.

The location is perfect, at a walking distance of all main museums and attractions. Everything was really clean and new. The cabin beds offer you more privacy than regular bunk beds which I liked as a solo traveller.

The only critique that I really have is that the bedroom was a bit narrow and the top bunk beds had the locker outside the room, so it's a bit difficult to store your things and get changed without going in and out of the room a million times. Also, bring a sleeping mask because the big light opens automatically with a sensor every time someone goes in/out the room and it can be uncomfortable when trying to sleep.
