Alibi Hostel Leeuwarden

Leeuwarden

The Alibi Hostel is located in the old prison in the city centre of Leeuwarden. Guests can enjoy the on-site bar.

Bike hire is available at this hostel and the area is popular for cycling. Holland Casino Leeuwarden is 1.7 km from Alibi Hostel Leeuwarden, while Fries Museum is 300 metres away. I've stayed here quite a few times, so no surprises. I like the young, friendly staff. They are very informal. The rooms are very basic, which is great because I travel with dogs and there is nothing for them to damage. There is a shared bathroom and shower on the landing, but it just works. They also have a kitchen where you can cook your own food. I'd recommend people stay here in the winter when it is quieter. It has a really nice vibe and you get the place more or less to yourself. Or at least I did.

Stayokay Hostel Terschelling

West-Terschelling

Guests aged 16 or 17 may also stay in a private room without being in the company of an adult, provided they can present a filled in consent form by their caretakers upon arrival at the hostel. Please send the hostel an email for the consent form. Being the winter season Stayokay Hostel Terschelling had maybe fifty to seventy guests per day during my four night stay. In the ten bed dorm room I was in, I was accompanied by none to two roommates - which equated to an excellent sleep and sleep-ins. The 10 bed dorm featured two showers and two toilets, lockers (bring your own lock), comfortable bunk beds, in a spacious room. The provided buffet style breakfast was top-notch. Lots of variety of various items - breads, cheeses, deli slices, spreads, yoghurts, juices, teas, coffee... plus plenty of tables, and probably the best sea view in Terschelling. Dinner is available in the evening, and a bar opens too. Staff were great, the facilities are clean, and it's a nice space to read, work, or just to take in the view.
