Guest Reviews

• Eva Wustinger (7/5): - Sehr freundliches Personal und sehr gute Lage! Der Ausblick ,wie eine Mülldeponie,aber dafür sehr ruhig!
• Dussaussois (8/5): -
• Cid (8/5): Great location. - The name is fitting! It is in a perfect central location. It was a climb getting to our room on the top floor and the beds were not the most comfortable.
• Tamari (10/5): . - . .
• Geisa (7/5): Vale o custo e benefício. Fica muito bem localizada. - Localização é a melhor. São organizados e sem barulho. Banheiro individual e era bom. Custo/beneficio. Valeu a pena. O quarto para 3 pessoas foi no último andar e com a restrição do teto. Para quem é alto precisa ficar abaixando. Eu tenho 61 anos e precisei sumir 6 lances de escada com as malas. Foi difícil. Só usa escada para descer e subir 1x no dia.
• Clothilde (7/5): - Casier sécurisé, plutôt propre, check out 24/24, bien placé au niveau des transports, prix correct par rapport au reste de la ville Pas de rideaux sur les lits, les escaliers sont très pentus (assez dangereux avec beaucoup de bagages), pas loin des transports mais en plein quartier rouge, une seule salle de bain pour une chambre de 8 personnes je trouve ça peu surtout quand les toilettes et la douche sont dans la même pièce
• Mihail (8/5): -
• Schlüter (7/5): - Liegt in guter zentraler Lage mit guter Anbindung an die Öffentlichen Verkehrsmittel
• nomoto (5/5): 若い方は良いかもしれませんが、私（６０歳超）にはちょっと合わなかったかもしれません。 - 人によると思いますが、飾り窓地区のど真ん中で、夜も遅くまでお酒を飲んだり軽くる食べられるところは多く便利といえば便利です。しかし一歩ホテルの外に出るとエキサイティングながらうるさいし、汚いしちょっと疲れる感じがしました。部屋に入ればきれいで静かです。EUでは珍しくエアコンもありました。 一歩ホテルの外に出るとエキサイティングながらうるさいし、汚いしちょっと疲れる感じがしました。駅地下ではありますが、内線電話なし、湯沸かしポット無し、冷蔵庫無し、これで５月連休中とはいえ２部屋で１０万円と円安(1EURO-188JPY)もあってかなり割高感を感じました。部屋は４階でエレベーターが無く、階段でスーツケースを運んだのもつらかったです。
• Abeiku (7/5): -
• SELIM CEMIL (4/5): If you look for good sleep, choose another location. - Breakfast is ok. Location is extremely central. Too much noisy. Not only from the outside but also from the inside.
• Chloe Rose (9/5): Great location, no lift - Great location! No lift, we were topped floor!
• MARIA (10/5): - Everything Everything was perfect
• Federica (8/5): - Posizione, camere, pulizia, silenzio nonostante la via trafficata Nella camera da 6 un lucernario non oscurabile
• Marta (8/5): Fajny nocleg w super lokalizacji - Pokój duży, łazienki czyste, lokalizacja genialna Brak pokoju wieloosobowego dla kobiet
• Elisane (7/5): - Hotel limpo, reformado, boa localização. Chuveiro bom. Aspectos negativos: barulho durante a noite, nem é da rua, a acústica do hotel não tem isolamento, muitas portas batendo durante a madrugada. Cama e travesseiros mto macios, parecia até inflável. Café da manhã simples.
• Chang Vong (8/5): Excellent location - Walking distance to central station Stairs to upper floors very small
• Anastázie (8/5): -
• Viktor (9/5): -
• Natascha (8/5): -
• Beatriz Peixinho (8/5): -
• mostafa (8/5): - Dans le centre, lit confortable, propreté et douche bien Pas de cuisine
• Aikaterini (8/5): -
• Marta (8/5): Great stay - would definitely recommend - This hotel is right at the end of the red lights district - a stone throws away from central station, the Dam and everywhere really. Super well located, and cute. The mattresses are a little soft, and due to its location it can be a bit noisy at night - most guests are respectful of this however (thankfully) and if you bring earphones you can sleep really well/without interruptions! If a light sleeper, I’d recommend asking for a room facing back!
• Rivoalen (10/5): Excellent emplacement au quartier rouge - L’emplacement, la qualité de la literie, la femme qui a souhaité faire notre ménage, le calme de notre chambre, le bar « the Pint » juste à coté L’accueil des hôtesses, très peu d’amabilité
• Дмитро (9/5): -
• Paula (10/5): - Cheguei antes do horario do check-in e aceitaram me receber. Em muitos anos viajando sei que é raro, foi um diferencial enorme (mas se nao fosse possivel, eles permitem deixar as malas armazenadas tambem). Fiquei insatisfeita com o quarto que me colocaram e atenderam meu pedido de trocar. Então minha experiência foi ótima, os funcionários me trataram bem
• Marianne (8/5): - De vriendelijkheid. Niets.
• carlos manuel (8/5): - Ubicación N/a
• Maxime (9/5): -
• MOHAMED (10/5): -
• Hussain (1/5): -
• Gema (9/5): - La proximidad a todo
• Yamila (9/5): -
• Federica (7/5): - Posizione top! vicinissimo al centro e alla stazione Essendo nel quartiere a luci rossi la movida continua fino a tarda notte e purtroppo l’insonorizzazione delle camere è davvero bassa.. si sentiva tutto
• Greet (7/5): Wel leuk - Dicht bij station en dicht bij de winkels Kamers waren miniem en voor die prijs had ik wel ontbijt graag erbij gehad.
• mongombe (9/5): - L'accueil, les équipements La propreté est le juste minimum. Une forte odeur des égouts dans la chambre
• WAI YIN (9/5): Value for Money - Value for money. Reasonable price in Amsterdam. There are two bathrooms in the room, they both are clean. There is also luggage room free of charge. Location is good. Nothing
• Nandintsetseg (10/5): -
• Iryna (10/5): -
• Vanessa (9/5): Excelente - Todo muy limpio, céntrico
• Manuel (8/5): Für einen Amsterdam trip mit sightseeing und abends ausgehen perfekt - Lage ist perfekt, schönes Bad, ruhige Zimmer richtung Innenhof die Matrazen sind viel zu weich und der Kopfpolster zu dick
• Mathéo (9/5): -
• Maryna (8/5): Не хватает стаканов для воды - Центр
• Nick (10/5): - Perfekte Lage im Zentrum von Amsterdam, die Matrazen waren sehr bequem.
• michel (8/5): - L'emplacement et la chambre Le bruit fait par les autres clients au milieu de la nuit
• Pia (10/5): Hinta-laatusuhde loistava☺️ - Sijainti keskeinen, mutta ei lapsiperheille sen ollessa punaisten lyhtyjen alueella. Todella siistiä, ystävällinen palvelu ja ullakkohuone oli hyvin hiljainen. Sängyt todella pehmeät, eli ei huonoselkäisille
• Diana (4/5): Für zwei Nächte war es okay - Die Lage war allgemein okay, man war schnell mitten drin Die Zimmer sind sehr hellhörig. Die Matratzen waren stark durchgelegen und hatten deutliche Liegekuhlen. Zudem gab es pro Person nur ein Handtuch, das bereits sehr abgenutzt war. Ein Badevorleger war ebenfalls nicht vorhanden.
• Christophe (8/5): Séjour impeccable au coeur d'Amsterdam - Emplacement idéal centre-ville et cœur Quartier rouge. Malgré tout, au calme. On peut tout faire à pied. La garde des bagages avant check-in et après check-out, c'est très pratique. la chambre était très bien. Les lits confortables. Propre et soigné. Le Petit déjeuner est vraiment trop léger pour le prix. Trop peu de choix. Même pas un yaourt ou du fromage blanc. De la charcuterie de qualité moyenne. Pas de fruits frais ou de crudités.
• Mie (8/5): -
• Yasmine (10/5): -
• Tomás (7/5): Bien. Cumplió - El trato del personal. Podes dejar las valijas. La cama cómoda. El baño esta bien. La ducha excelente. El barrio no es muy lindo. No lo recomiendo para ir en pareja. Los lockers no son muy grandes. No hay buen aislamiento de sonido de la calle que por la noche es bastante concurrida.
• Phaneendra (8/5): -
• G.A.4184 (8/5): -
• Manuela (10/5): Super toll - Lage war top Taxi konnte nicht zu Hotel fahren. (Fussgängerzone)
• Jacob (10/5): -
• Mashu (8/5): - レッドライド地区にあって、とてもアクセスが良い。 清潔。無料で荷物を預かってくれる。 アムステルダムだから仕方ないけど、高い。
• Max Ferreira De Matos (1/5): -
• Raquel (7/5): -
• Agustina (8/5): Muy bueno pero no excelente - Esta muy bien ubicado, muy limpio y la gente súper amable, tiene un espacio común donde podías comer lo que trajeras de afuera Las escaleras eran muy pequeñas para subir y bajar con equipaje, los colchones de la cama eran muy incómodos para dormir, se hundían y si te ibas para un costado te podías caer
• Andrea (9/5): -
• nnctmrc (7/5): merkezi konaklama - Konumu çok merkezi. WC çok küçük
• RIVERA (4/5): No volto mais. Tudo muito amador. - Nada. Colchões horríveis, molengos. Café d manhã pobre.
• Sandra (7/5): - Die Lage war sehr zentral und das Zimmer K1 nach hinten gelegen in den Innenhof. Sehr zum empfehlen, da es mitten im rotlichtviertel liegt. Es gab im Zimmer keine ablagemöglichkeiten und nur hacken zum aufhängen von zb jacken und Handtüchern. Der duschstrahl war leider nicht vorhanden. Die matratzen waren gewöhnungsbedürftig.
• Daniel (8/5): Correcte - . .
• Berra (10/5): -
• André (8/5): Tout bien considéré, séjour apprécié. - Personnel à l’accueil très généreux. Localisation vraiment excellente. Certains clients peu respectueux, bruyants, malpropres.
• Veronika (7/5): -
• Silva (5/5): Não voltaria a repetir a experiência de ficar numa camarata mista de 12 pessoas - Localização no centro da cidade Fiquei num quarto partilhado com 12 camas (misto), havia um entra e sai constante, não havia qualquer tipo de respeito por quem estava a dormir. Tivemos uma situação de um intruso no quarto em que o recepcionista teve que intervir a meio da noite fazendo com que o quarto inteiro acordasse. O pequeno almoço é muito caro para o tipo de oferta.
• Victoria (7/5): Bel emplacement - L’hôtel est bien placé il est facile de se déplacer à pieds ou autre transport Restaurant et place proche de l’hôtel pour se restaurer La rue est très bruyante il est difficile de bien dormir. Les rideaux ne sont pas assez couvrants. Il faudrait rajouter des petites tablettes en guise de table de nuit.
• Lucie (10/5): - L’emplacement est super, très proche du centre. L’hôtel est très propre et calme.
• Oskarina (10/5): Excelente relación calidad precio - La ubicación, la atención y la limpieza muy buenas No hay ascensor y la habitación que nos tocó estaba en el 4to piso, por lo demás todo bien
• Isa (6/5): - De locatie, zeer schone sanitair. Medewerker wilde zonder te vragen kopie maken van mijn Identiteitsbewijs. Dit mag helemaal niet van de privacy wetgeving. Dit kan echt niet meer en hierdoor heb ik cijfer lager gegeven.
• Sole (7/5): -
• Daniele (7/5): Attenzione alla scala per accedere alle camere - Vicinissimo al centro. In una bella posizione. Ma le scala ripidissima e senza ascensore non adatto per chi ha problemi motori. La camere pulite solo che per tre giorni non sono passati a sistemare il bagno.
• Giovanni (8/5): -
• Charles (10/5): - Very clean friendly staff good location Nothing
• Maria (10/5): - Posizione eccellente
• Charles (10/5): - Very clean friendly staff Nothing
• Julieta (9/5): De los mejores hostels que he visitado - Va corto, un párrafo cada una: Review 5 estrellas El mejor hostel de mi viaje hasta el momento. Llevo 2 meses recorriendo Europa y parando en hostels, y este fue lejos el más cómodo, limpio y completo. Las camas son un 10 y dormí mejor que en varios hostels, los baños son espaciosos, con buena presión de agua y siempre están impecables. Ubicación y atención excelentes. Si venís a esta ciudad, es una muy buena opción. Estadía excelente, solo falta cocina. Todo estuvo muy bien, la única mejora sería sumar una cocina compartida. En una ciudad tan cara, muchos elegimos hostel para ahorrar y poder cocinar algo simple ya que hace la diferencia. Fuera de eso, volvería sin pensarlo.
• Maria Concetta (7/5): -
• FAREED BIN BASHEER (9/5): Stayed 3 nights from 23 April to 27 April.Everything comfortable, very clean bathrooms ( Recently done the renovation) - The location is fantastic Everything walkable distance Breakfast not worth for the money! 13 Euro for bread and eggs is very costly
• carolina (10/5): -
• Caroline (8/5): Logement idéal pour un groupe ! - Localisation dans le centre historique proche de la gare. Nécessaire en linge de lit/serviettes fourni. Accueil 24/24 et possibilité de laisser ses bagages si la chambre n’est pas dispo. Ne pas oublier ses boules quies car quartier très bruyant jusqu’aux aurores
• Estelle (10/5): -
• Yosef (5/5): - It was close to the city center It was inside the red windows, very unpleasant area It wasn’t clean I’m not sure that I can call the thing that we slept on a bed, it’s just a couch and not a nice one
• Tomislav (8/5): -
• Assem (8/5): Отличное расположение, все в пешой доступности. Приятный персонал, вкусный завтрак. Я проживала в общей комнате и соседи - Расположение в самом центре Чистота Вежливый персонал Соседи в общей комната Отсутствие женских комнат
• Orbem (10/5): -
• Cloé (8/5): -
• Keith (5/5): -
• koyak (9/5): Yalnız gezenler için ideal - Konumu güzel, manyetik dolap kiliti var, odada horuldayan tosun haricinde herşey güzel, fakat yatak konforu biraz sıkıntı, ama 9 puanı hak ediyor. Yine tek gelsem kalırım Yatak konforu zayıf
• Sylvie (8/5): - La proximité avec le centre ville Un peu bruyant
• Gistalia (8/5): - Foi meio difícil de subir na cama de cima porque não é exatamente uma escada e o armário não cabe a mala de bordo, somente a mochila.
• Hilde (7/5): -
• Amanda (5/5): - Clean, central Very noisy at night, uncomfortable bed
• Ahsan (1/5): -
• Kerry (10/5): -
• Bernadette (8/5): - Breakfast satisfactory, location excellent, staff very helpful, room very clean and quiet Definitely a problem with the bed, and no lift was also a bit of a problem. We were on second floor which was ok but unfortunately the stairs were rather high and no lift, and we all had mobility issues, I know the staff tried their best to give us a low floor room
• Deqa (10/5): - Att det luktade mögel och att var svart mögel i duschen.
