    The Best Hotel in R'dam
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Single Bed in 6-Bed Female Dormitory Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    Sometime a bit loud outside the hotel, because this hotel located in the Gastronomy area (a lot of Cafes and Restaurant around there)

    This is the best hotel that i found in Rotterdam . I was really surprised the size of the Bed was perfect for me (Female Room Only) and the Bathroom was also really clean. I am really happy i can stay in this area since it is not so far from R'dam Centraal Station. Only 3 Station with the Tramline. I would like to recommend this hotel to everybody .

    1 toilet for 60 beds. Toilet roll maintenance slow. People come in the night drunk or high and make a lot of noise. Not for night sleepers. No free coffee or nothing in the morning. Very crammed rooms.

    Receptionist also works at the bar, but he looked much more interested in cleaning dishes and chatting with girls, rather then attending me to do the check-in for almost 20 minutes

    It was amazing to stay here. The hostel is on the bar street and its very active! My first hostel like this. The employee is very warm and kind. U should stay at this atmosphere.

    Great location, atmosphere and music
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller

    Great central location on a vibrant street full of cafes, bars, and street art. Everything was clean and comfortable. I particularly liked the common area where you can work, chill in a bar, or cook your own meals in the kitchen. There was always really good music playing in the bar/common area! The staff was nice and helpful (and with great music taste, judging the playlists ;) The WiFi signal was excellent and suitable for working. What is important to realize is that it is never quiet in this hostel, there is music in the bar downstairs and lots of people and other bars on the street. I was prepared for this and it didn't bother me but the street is not a good choice for light sleepers and/or those looking for peace and quiet :)

    I was a bit confused about the fact, that the rooms had no doors on one floor. But in the end it wasn't a problem

    My room (8 bed dorm) had 3 bunk beds and two single beds on a kind of an extra level with a personal window. I was lucky to get one of the single beds and really appreciated it

    There is only one bathroom with shower and toilet in the dormitory, if someone uses it, no one else can

    Big common kitchen, modern and cozy room. The room is very clean too.

    Perfect stay for a weekend of fun in the middle of nightlife

    I don't have any real complains. Maybe I would say that it doesn't look very accessible for people in a wheelchair.

    The hostel is located in the center of the nightlife and it's perfect if you want to be close to the bars and clubs. The hostel has a café/bar at the entrance which makes it very convenient.

    My room did not have wifi as it was too far away from the router.

    The location was directly in the center, could get much better :) the room was good, however the bed itself was uncomfortable. :( The kitchen was big enough for everyone to use.

    No social events to bring travellers together, which is why I haven’t rated it more highly. Hard to meet people here.

    Super location in the centre of Rotterdam. Rooms and bathrooms in very good condition. Friendly staff and good pizzas from their kitchen.

    The temperature outside is 10 degrees. The person who comes into the room opens the window as he wishes. I have a headache from the cold. I've been staying in your hostel for 10 days. You need to warn your customers. Your ventilation fan is already working. Why do you open the windows when the temperature outside is 10 degrees? One should not argue because of this issue. The management should not allow this. No need to open windows. Your staff is good and friendly. You need to find a solution to the window opening problem.

    Sometimes it gets cold because the customers open the windows in the room. They made the storage cabinets in the form of a chest, but there should be a place where there are cameras.

    They have excellent employees, everyone is trying to help. I can say that it is the cleanest hostel I have ever seen.

    The beds were a little hard for our taste. Which was not a problem when going to bed, but when waking up a few of us had back pain.

    Nice location, and good staff. We had a lot of fun and the facilities were nice and clean. The hostel put the whole group in the same room, which we really enjoyed. Everything was nicely explained and the staff was very helpsull.
