Very well located and very attentive staff.

Good

Very clean, staff is friendly, good envicoment at night and good facilities. Loved everything.

Amazing stuff! Great location near Amsterdam Central Station

It was very friendly (I made friends right away) and they provide socializing spaces and resources to the area.

Issue with reservation - Misleading information - Unhelpful Expedia staff First of all, The Flying Pig was a wonderful experience and I quite enjoyed myself and had a comfortable stay. My issue was my experience with Expedia / Misleading information regarding the beds. I am at a lost with Expedia. When the reservation was made, the site listing directly from the Expedia website stated 1 x Double Bunk Bed for 2 guests. When I arrived, reception said it was only one bed for 2 people and didn't include the whole bunk, though the website indicates otherwise; how could I determine the difference? So, my friend had to book a whole other reservation so we could have serperate beds. I contacted Expedia the same day as I made the reservation through them (makes sense right?) I explained the situation and Expedia basically just called the Flying Pig, asked for a refund, they said no, Expedia basically stated that the extent of their effort was done and that it sucks to be me. There was no real recognition of the misleading information on their site, no real customer care or value. All they said is that my experience will help prevent others from going through it. Why do I lose out on over $300.00 as they wouldn't refund the cost of the second guest that didn't get a seperate bed based on their misleading info? I tried to further this inquiry but Expedia merely sent a copy and paste blurb from their e-mail prior and said thanks for choosing them and that they care about us, yadaya.

Very nice and clean facility.

Overall very good facilities. Clean showers/toilets, shampoo and soap provided, towels available to rent at front desk. Security appears to be very good. Reception area doubles as a bar and can get crowded. Location is after all, very close to Amsterdam Central and the busy downtown area. Highly recommended if you're looking to stay in a great location and party atmosphere. The biggest variable as with any hostel stay is your potential roommates. If your lucky, you'll savor a quiet stay, if not....anything goes.

Check in was noted online at 1030am, But you can't move in until 2pm. Very deceiving.

This property is a real scam with no minimum European standards for a place to stay. Washrooms and toilets are absolutely disgusting and dirty. Rooms are fully packed with super small and uncomfortable beds. They force customers to accept their single beds as queen size beds. And to mean that they even offer to customers to stay separately instead of giving them reasonable explanations. At the end, your complaint will be ended by their this: 'Here is Amsterdam'

Really friendly hostel everyone is on the right vibe could literally strike up a convo whilst waiting at the bar would highly recommend especially if your on your own or in a small group and looking for people to interact with. Beds were really comfortable the only thing I would say could be improved is if you had 2 plug sockets but that may have just been the room I had.

This place was amazing. Stayed with a friend and it was our first time in Amsterdam. The staff are so so friendly and welcoming. The location is excellent. The facilities are average for a hostel but they get the job done! Would definitely stay here again! <3

Very clean, very nice staff, no wifi, very confusing explanation of happy hour specials.

This is my go-to hostel when I’m Amsterdam. It’s clean, safe and the staff are super friendly. The food at the bar is great and the kitchen downstairs is clean. There is a general feeling of respect for fellow travellers here. I rate it

Perfect location. Walking distance to everything. Clean, comfortable bed and blankets, storage space for back packs. Good experience!

Great location. For my first time at a hostel it exceeded my expectations . Staff was helpful. Layout is interesting coming from the US, but efficient . Would definitely book again!

We have not been told that we cannot use the storage 6 hours after the checkout so we rented them for 24 hours because there were no option as 8 hours which is what we needed. When we arrived to the hostel for getting our bags, the reception told us that we are very late and we have been told about the policy, which we were not. Main logic of renting lockers is to drop the bags in the hostel instead of carrying them. If we had a room, we could have left them in our own lockers. Then i just asked for time to charge my phone for 15 minutes with my own charger. Then he said because we are already 2 hours late, he can charge my phone only for 5 minutes instead of 15. Ridiculous!!!

Amazing place, amazing people and amazing location

Staff came and cleaned every single day, common areas were clean and I made great friends just down in the bar area!

Asked to leave hostel with no explanation to why or refund, seen other reviews people with similar experiences here. WiFi is poor and bed bugs

I had such a blast at the Flying Pig Downtown!!! The staff were friendly and helpful from the minute I walked in. The atmosphere is so warm and friendly that I immediately felt welcomed. The rooms themselves are really nice and very spacious. As a solo female traveler I felt really safe here. I will definitely be staying here again the next time in amsterdam!!!

Amazing hostel with amazing people and can’t wait to return one day

The stay at the hostel was very good, the staff was very friendly and the place was very clean and central

Great stay the beds are very confortable.

Was asked to switch rooms after day 1 of my 3 day trip. Not very clean. The location is good, though.

Excellent location. Safe and very good attention.

Great spot, frindly staff and occupants

I loved my stay! Lots of solo travellers and great for meeting people

I thought the staff did a very good job and we’re very friendly

I wanted to stay close to Centraal Station and this hostel was close. For the price and location, I was happy. This hostel chain has repuation of being fun and upbeat so make sure you know that before booking.

Location

Stay and location is excellent. Room is clean and Service is excellent and staff are friendly and very helpful. Only suggestion to improve would be that when temperature hits 28+ the room is very hot and becomes uncomfortable and needs air conditioning.
