    It's a very cramped place, no public space, you can only chat in front of the house on the street, the host charged us twice the tourist tax without a bill, of course. There were no net on the windows and there were mosquitoes as big as a hummingbird. I could list the inconveniences, but I'd rather just say that you should only sleep here if there is nothing else!

    We needed a cheap room just to sleep and move on early in the morning as we got into Amsterdam late and it served its purpose for that. The beds were very comfortable, the mattresses looked new, and the bed linen was very clean. The room itself was clean but the walls grubby and really need a coat of paint. The whole place does need a coat of paint because of the grubby looking walls. Its biggest downfall is the bathroom which looked very grubby indeed and was not cleaned to acceptable standards. We did not shower there. We understand that it is a hostel and extremely cheap for Amsterdam. However to have a licence to operate there are some essentials to abide by and a clean bathroom is one of them!! I would also be careful at the 5 star reviews given. In the last 24 hrs there have been 7 or 8 5 star reviews so I suspect someone is working very hard to create fake reviews. Without months and months of hard work and money being spent on it it would be absolutely impossible for this place to jump to 5 stars plus the location, by any standards, could never be awarded 5 stars.

    Horrible! I can't call this a guest house. When I arrived the room was not clean. Toilet and living room full of dirt and dust. The conditions are very bad. The hospitality was unpleasant and uncomfortable. How can leave this 'guesthouse' continue in practice? I can't imagine a place like this in Amsterdam! Unbelievable and unimaginable!! Need to get a severe inspection!!!

    This apartment is one of the worst places i have ever lived. The bathroom is very dirty. No one does the cleaning job and the toilet is very small (my room is full of dust). The mosquitos inside the room definitely let you have insomnia every night. I strongly recommend not to live in this apartment or else you will regret. NEVER EVER STAY IN THIS APARTMENT.

    Kind of okay not suited for family at all. Resturant at ground floor is very good for Indian food. Water is not served . Drinking water should be filled in bathroom :( or buy it from them thats too bad. 2 stars only for food at the ground floor and thelocation. Apartment is walkable from metro station which is very convinent no need to book cab for airport transfers. Rest rooms are clean which is positive. There are no private ways for thw rooms as mentioned in one of the booking sites.

    Half working showers in poor and dirty conditions. Nearly got locked in in the toilets multiple times. Way over priced for what you get.

    A really horrible hotel, thoroughly not recommended. Came into the room to find mattress falling apart, dirty floor, virtually no other services but the dirt filled chargers, before waking up to mosquitos and flies everywhere in the room. It's a miracle I escaped without an illness, and my youngest came out with a heavy cough. Thank the lord we only stayed one night, and I can only hope you immediately change your plans if heading to this hotel.

    honestly not a great experience. the rooms were boiling hot and there were SO MANY mosquitoes. everyday i woke up with bites all over my face and my entire body. i was so petrified and was concerned they were bed bugs but we never confirmed that. however the crumbs on the sheets and the stains on the mattresses really made me question the cleaning quality or even if there was any cleaning. it’s cheap but it is not worth it for the small amount of money saved. i definitely recommend paying more so you don’t have to handle the showers that always smelt like urine and what looked like growing mould. at least the staff were semi nice but they were occasionally unresponsive when we tried to organise our late checkout (12 hours in advance)

    The washroom and toilet is shared between 3-4 rooms of six occupancy each. We were not aware of that fact. We didn't had working extension board. It was way too much expensive for the basic amenities. It's geographically close to the central station but in a very secluded area.

They charge us with the city tax for 3 person even if where on 2 people and make us pay for 1 person even if they only offer the couch without a blancket .the toilet is very bad you cant sit properly and the shower is dirty . This is worst experience ever .. they didnt even give some towel or any amenities and the sheet is dirty very uncomfortable place to stay in a nice city.... we wanted to cancel but they didnt let us cancel ....! Worst place to stay!!!

  • 1/5 Inez K. 5 years ago on Google
    The whole place + beds were dirty and cold. No door bell, nobody answeres phone, but for email in 5min. We needed to wait 15-20min outside in cold. Pizzeria owner came to open the doors so we were able to wait inside. It took some time that the owner or his friend was checking that we have paid 50€ from 1 night, even I had every documents about it. There was very small office behind the hostel in the car garage. Sorry, but not recomended. Travelling first time with my young brother and the experience is not so good one, what comes to sleeping..

    Rooms are boiling, bathrooms are mouldy and rotten, toilets scummy stinking of urine, no proper blankets, no towels, bed sheets all ripped. Remember to take a towel if you dare book. Located 35 minutes walk outside of red light district on the opposite side of river.

  • 2/5 Christianna Q. 5 months ago on Google β€’ 10 reviews
    The worst experience ever. I can understand that the price is low, but AT LEAST the bathrooms should be clean. The sheets are dirty, don't even consider to use them. The location is good, near to market and metro station.

    This hostel is actually not one star it is 5 stars we arrived here today and it was actually better than expected a lot of people have actually given 1 star reviews but I've never even been travelling before compared to hostels in the likes of Thailand and other countries it is actually suessential

  • 1/5 Athul M. 7 months ago on Google
    Bad experience throughout the stay. Really dirty washroom and toilet. I have never seen any toilets and washrooms in Europe like this.

  • 3/5 Drew H. 7 months ago on Google β€’ 4 reviews
    Absolutely fine! Not so sure where all the negativity is coming from. Saw no rats or anything from previous reviews. Toilets absolutely fine too. A little bit of a journey from the centre/Ams train station but definitely walkable.

  • 4/5 Alex G. 5 years ago on Google
    From UK Friendly & understanding member of staff, due to flight being delayed understood the problem with emails & charged us no fee.. was very grateful! It was clean in the rooms with clean sheets & bedding.. bathroom and showers were as clean as you can make it understanding for a hostel.. Not far from the ferry over to main land I can't fault for the money & stay ! Supermarkets near by & ferry stops around 12 o clock about.. not much around where you are but not too much to go to eat over the river...

  • 1/5 sarp doruk k. 1 year ago on Google
    The owner completely forgot about our arrival and we had to wait infront of the door for almost half an hour. We were welcomed with an upset face like we woke him up from his nap. The toilet is shared between 18 people, as you can guess the ratio isnt even close to being enough. Toilet itself wasnt clean. The bathrooms were in bad shape, we didnt want to take a shower. The room was dirty, the mosquito racket was broken and a piece of it was hanging which as you can guess is a big health hazard. 3 plugs for 6 people in a room isnt enough either. I would never recommend this place to anyone.
