Stayokay Hostel Eindhoven

Good location

Nothing

The bed was in a capsule and I had the upper part. Climbing down could be challenging similarly to a bunk bed. The building itself is in an old industrial building so the ceiling of the room was very high. The personel was very helpful with my request to dry my wet clothes. The bathroom was very clean considering it being a hostel. There is a supermarket and a bus stop nearby that takes you either the city center or to Eindhoven airport. All very convenient.

Apparently there is no facilities to wash & dry your clothes at the place.

Good in and out service

No windows in the room

Pre-check-in communication was automated, but good; gsve the impression someone was listening and responding to shared information. Location and free WiFi. The particular booking I got may be good accommodation style for young students or people travelling on serious budgets. Eindhoven is a beautiful safe city. StayOK is located in a relatively central area.

Despite informing of my very early arrival, no one was there to open the door/pick call by indicated phone line, for my check-in at around 04h00AM and the calls went to no response. Got in almost an hour later. Once I checked in aroun 05h00, I was informed that it would be too early to shower, which I did respect but all day, night and next morning, there were people showering at odd times, with doors opening and closing irregularly. No windows in the room of 16 people and no privacy. Sleeping in "pigeon holes" wasn't what I expected; thankfully I booked only two nights of the entire stay. I had almost no interaction with the staff, beyond the check-in point. Even when I greeted as I passed the reception area, I got no response. Most interesting check out also, not being noticed at all. Did not take the breakfast option, so I cannot comment on that. It's not a bad place; it's just not for me.
