“If you love the Red Light District, this place is for you”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 May 2013

We had to book this hostel at the last minute because there was no more room at the Flying Pig. It's pretty much in the Red Light District, we could literally see prostitutes in their windows from our room's. Staff seemed indifferent, though never rude or disrespectful. It was more expensive than its worth. Everything was clean, but our room... More

“Clean and friendly hostel.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 May 2013

The only niggle with this hostel is that when I paid online I thought I had paid the full amount (55€ for two nights) when arriving they said I still had to pay it. Then I asked about an amount that had been taken out... This was a deposit but I don't get it back until a few days after... More

“Great Location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 May 2013

Great location, right in the Heart of the Red Light district next to bars and coffee shops! The hotel itself is very clean and the staff are relatively friendly, the only downside to our stay was the location of our room. We had a late check in at around 9pm and where given room 1. This room is right next... More

“heart of amsterdam”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 April 2013

I stay in this hostel fo six days during a trip with my friends... Excellent hostel! It's in a central location, into the red light district, near Dam square. The rooms are confortable and clean, decorated in a cinematic theme (we were into the "Lord of rings" room), with eight or twelve beds. I recommend this hostel for an holyday... More

“No warm water...”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 March 2013

We paid for 40e / one person / one night. It was a room of six people. There was no warm water and the heating was off half of the time. The guy in the Reception had lots of excuses but he didn't actually do anything to correct the problem with water. It was really unbelievable. So if you like... More
