Quirky, comfortable, hostel vibes but with private room and bathroom

The bed could have been a little more comfortable but it wasn’t an issue

Really liked their sustainable practices and it was clean, basic and sufficient!

The room was a bit dark and I wish there was better lighting. Location was okay and we had to do a lot of walking, which I guess is healthy. It was pricey for what it offered, but that’s the price you pay for Amsterdam.

Very cool decor, friendly staff, great atmosphere, really good location. Great for younger people. I really liked the communal kitchen and seating area, that big sofa was so comfy!

We stayed in one of the twin rooms and the only thing I would want to change is the lights. They weren't bright enough and because there was no windows it was quite dark. The two little side table lamps sometimes sparked or flickered.

Location is not so bad, a bit further from city centre but it’s a nice walk/cycle to get there. The coffee they serve in cafe is really good.

Young night receptionist was useless. He pointed where I needed to do my check in (it’s a self checking system) but as I was so tired I missed the information of which room and bed I was going to stay. When I asked him to check he was upset to do, then didn’t bother to even tell me where my room was, or explain the hostels facilities. Apparently you have to find such a things by yourself. I was so luck to probably get the best bed in the hostel located right underneath the exposed pipes from the floor above, so I had the pleasure to lay under that and get awake every time someone flushed the toilet above. Plus the door from the room is extremely loud, not only for its squeaky noise but it bangs every time someone comes in/out. By bed was right next to it. The result, I couldn’t sleep at all the first night. I complained about the door next day and they told me it was going to get fixed. They didn’t. There is only one USB plug for you to charge your phone by the bed and one other plug for the whole room. Big gaps between the bed and wall, no place for you to leave your stuff safe without fall from the bed. Toilets are always dirty, they were barely cleaned, I’ve noticed that by one of them that had a “brown stain” on it for the 2 days I was there. Dirty, clogged and faulty showers. Honestly this was one of the worst hostels I’ve stay, specially for the price I’ve paid
