First night was good. Second night I had to move to a new room (I booked separately) and it was not as good - company not so good and limited luggage storage. So it's good if you get the right room :)

Initially I wasn’t too sure about staying at a hostel. Am I glad I did. This was the best place I could’ve stayed. I met so many people from across the globe. Everyone was very nice and welcoming. 10/10, I definitely recommend this for anyone looking to have a fun time in Amsterdam.

Disliked: Room comfort
Great location, toilet and bed sheets kept clean. Staffs were kind. But no place to leave phone/small stuffs near the bed(e.g.bed table or shelf which are usually available in hostel bunkbeds), and too much additional fees (locker, lock, towel, key deposit)..no hair drier. and after adding all these small fees I wasn't even sure if it's worth staying in a hostel as it wasn't saving that much.

O hostel em geral fica muito bem localizado, próximo a estação central e rua movimentada com comércios e restaurantes. Contudo, na minha opinião, prática um preço exorbitante para o que oferece. Ficamos em um quarto compartilhado e o valor supera o de cidades muito mais interessantes. Além disso, enfrentamos muito barulho a noite dentro do quarto e hóspedes transando. A limpeza é boa, os chuveiros são razoáveis. Café da manhã bom, mas pelo preço era o mínimo que se esperava. Ah, se prepara para pagar por tudo: toalha por exemplo (por que não incluem logo no valor na reserva?) e uma taxa de turismo surreal. Staffs prestativos e educados. Ponto positivo: bar com preços bons!
