- Vittoria (10/5): - La posizione è ottima. In pochi minuti si raggiunge il centro con la metro.
La struttura è perfetta per chi cerca un alloggio funzionale e comodo ottima qualità-prezzo.
Anche la pulizia dei locali è da sottolineare.
Il personale è molto gentile e disponibile per ogni necessità

- Gustavo (6/5): -
- Mariann (7/5): Ruhiges, modernes Hostel, keine Türen an Schlafsaal - - kleine Schlafkojen, wo man seine Ruhe hatte
- alles sauber & neu
- sehr freundliches Personal
- 1x heißes Getränk kostenlos
- Handtuch wird kostenlos gestellt
- kein Party Hostel Falls man nicht Geräuscheempfindlich ist, gibt es nichts zu bemängeln :)
-die Zimmer hatten keine Türen, wodurch es schon recht laut war (zumindest für Personen, die etwas Geräuschempfindlich sind). Die Badtür ist recht laut beim Öffnen & schließen & man hört auch die Geräusche aus dem Badezimmer im Schlafsaal.
- Recht kleines Bad: nur 2 Duschen & 2 Toiletten & 2 Waschbecken für 18 (?) Personen auf einer Etage
- Steile & enge Treppe, kein Aufzug
- es wurde bereits früh morgens geputzt. Und auch wenn aus dem eigenen Zimmer noch niemand ins Bad ging, wurde man wach, weil man die anderen Personen hört.
- Mayu (7/5): - 全体的に清潔感があり、カフェエリアでのワンドリンクサービスなども会って良かった。トラムの最寄り駅が近い。 シャワーのお湯が出ないことがある。
もう一つのシャワーはお湯が出たため、特に問題は無かったが、常にお湯は出て欲しい。
- Hedenylson (10/5): Confortável e equipe amigável - Eles me colocaram no primeiro piso por eu levar muita mala, o que contribuiu para uma experiência melhor pra não ter que levar tanto peso. Além disso, gostei que eles dão um café de boas vindas. A localização é ótima, apesar de não ser tão próximo ao centro caminhando, então considere pegar o trem durante a sua estadia. E pra mim, o principal motivo de ficar no hostel, o fato de contar com cortinas nas camas, que garante a privacidade e mais conforto.
- Alejandra Sofia (10/5): Me ha encantado - Las instalaciones y la atención
- Ramil (10/5): -
- 姿勻 (9/5): - 住宿地點非常方便,搭乘電車或是捷運能抵達大部分地區,或是散步20分鐘左右能走到中央車站。
床位及盥洗室環境都乾淨,櫃台人員親切嚴謹,讓人安心。 樓梯非常狹小且陡,明白這是因為傳統舊時的當地建築特色,但有大型行李會很不方便。
房價實在是不便宜。

- Vivien (1/5): - Nice and clean hostel, I wanted to write a good review about it but what have happened to me this morning by the cleaning staff is deeply insulting and completely unacceptable!
Be careful with the cleaning staff, this morning I started to pack my bags at 9.40 and the male cleaner in his 30s-40s next to me was already cleaning the left beds - check-out is at 10.00, I don't even understand why he's already in the room - and I asked him to let me close my luggage so I could leave the room in time but he asked me to let him clean the beds next to me - there was no space between the beds to be able to do our thing at the same time - I waited for him to finish - in the meantime I had to inhale the cleaning spray -
When I went out to check-out the reception girls asked me why I hit the cleaning man because the cleaning man told them that I hit him.
We didnt touch each other, in fact there wasn’t even eye contact in the whole situation! The cleaner should be ashamed of himself for saying such thing! Completely unacceptable!
I couldn't leave my luggage at the hostel because the receptionist said that their storage space is already full but I could leave my bags at their other sister accommodation - The Elephant Hostel, a 2-minutes walk away from The Bee Hostel. Needless to say, I didn't dare to leave my bags there, lest to suffer the atrocity of having them deny that I left my bags there because I didn't stay at the hostel and they end up stealing my belongings.
I feel deeply insulted, unfortunately this situation ruined my last morning in the beautiful Amsterdam.

- Kassai (9/5): -
- Pia Marie (8/5): Ich war sehr zufrieden, und würde wieder dahin kommen, ich hab mich allgemein sehr wohl gefühlt :) - Zentrale Lage, super freundliches Personal, alles sauber. :) Die Lüftung kann in der Nacht ganz schön laut sein, und wenn man ein Bett vorne hat, hört man natürlich die Türen sehr stark. Aber mit Ohrenstöpseln alles nicht weiter schlimm ;)
- Kavita (8/5): - super clean bathrooms very expensive for a hostel
- Margot (9/5): - L’accueil, les rideaux de lit, la bagagerie Lits un peu trop nombreux dans le dortoir, peut donc être bruyant
- Alejandra (8/5): -
- Allane (9/5): -
- Juan Franco (10/5): Consigliabile 100% - Il posto e bello, comodo, si può raggiungere facilmente il centro a piedi. Lo staff è molto accogliente
- Thomas (9/5): Great cheap stay near the centre - Good facilities, nice friendly staff. Locker free of charge. Only two showers & toilets for like 18 people but wasn’t much of an issue.
- Luiz Augusto (10/5): Amazing hostel - Very clean, friend staff (thanks Emily / gracias recepcionistas de Argentina) and very close to the metro station. It is a great place for people who work remotely! Everything was perfect!
- Claudio Rodrigo (10/5): -
- El Rifai (7/5): Convient for budget travelling - Cosy place and reasonably priced Climbing 4 stories with a high inclination !! Also noisy neighbors at night that didn’t consider that others might be sleeping !!
- Aleksandra (10/5): The best place to stay in Amsterdam - This is top of the top hostel. Im staying only in the hostels around the world and this is my favorite. Was my 2nd time, love time vibe there. All girls who works there are super nice, helpful, like to chat. Place is clean and beds are the best, the best designed, no lights coming in when you sleep :)
- Brinda (10/5): 5+ 🌟 - Everything. Did have a shelf in the shower to set my toiletries on. Everything else was perfect.
- Gila (9/5): - Sehr freundliches Personal-gemütlich
Leider gabs kein Bier an der Bar
- Abigael (10/5): Superb - The staff, the location the cleanliness and silence of the hostels
- Juan Pablo (10/5): Excelente opción calidad - precio. - La ubicación no es mala, puedes moverte facil en tránsporte público o bicicleta. el barrio es muy tranquilo. me encantó la atención, las opciones para convivir, la limpieza y el orden, tuve muy buenos acompañantes y eso ayudó mucho. En genral todo me gustó.
- Maria Laura (10/5): Mi primera vez en Amsterdam, no pude haber elegido mejor hostel, mi experiencia fue un 10 - Destaco la limpieza, la privacidad de cada compartimento y sobre todo la calidez del personal de recepción.
La ubicación es excelente

- Benjamin (8/5): Decent hostel with a few limitations in a beautiful part of the city - Bee Hostel has pretty decent beds with privacy curtains, outlets, lights etc. all built in. The beds themselves are pretty luxurious for hostel standards. The location is great and the staff are helpful. Overall it gets most of the core parts of a hostel right. The internet is solid, beds are quite nice, the price is cheap for Amsterdam, and the location is great. There are some trade offs, but most of those come as part of the normal hostel experience. If you have mobility issues of any kind, this probably isn't the place for you. My bed was on the 4th floor and it requires climbing up an ultra steep and tight stair case with extremely narrow steps. It felt almost like climbing a ladder. There isn't much overhead room on these stair cases either and my backpack dragged on the ceiling in a few places. Once upstairs the rooms themselves are pretty good. There are motion sensing lights that go off throughout the night in the bedrooms as patrons come and go, but the privacy curtains eliminate a fair bit of the disruption that would normally cause. The only other potential area of concern are the bathrooms, which are kind of limited. There is one toilet, shower, and sink for the floor of 10-12 people. I never actually ran into any wait times accessing them, but I could see that being an issue if you wanted to use the bathroom/shower at a popular time.
- Andres Jalal (4/5): Really doesn't deserve that price - Only reception The bed
Dirty pillow other stuff
No soap for shower

- Matteo (8/5): -
- Urban (10/5): -
- Murielle (8/5): Limpeza e organização muito bons - Do banheiro limpo e dentro do quarto, cama confortável e armário que cabe uma mala de 10kg e mochila. Os funcionários são muito educados. O atendimento é excelente! O Hostel ainda é na área central, mas um pouco distante dos pontos turísticos, além disso não tem cozinha. Eles disponibilizam parte da estrutura do café pra vc esquentar algo, pegar água e usar a geladeira.
- Zoe (8/5): -
- Büke (10/5): -
- Herrera (10/5): - Me gustó mucho la privacidad que dan las cortinas a cada cubículo. La cama supercómoda y todo permaneció limpio todo el tiempo. Además, las chicas de recepción muy amables y atentas. Uno de los baños era muy pequeño e incómodo, pero el otro estaba bien.

- Giovanna (10/5): -
- Michele (10/5): -
- Tsokalo (10/5): Camas confortáveis - Preço qualidade staff muito simpático. Beliche confortáveis e com a cortina temos muito privacidade Nada
- YAN HAN (8/5): -
- Rebecca (8/5): -
- Nicolás (8/5): - La ubicación es perfecta para llegar a todos lados sin viajar mucho tiempo.
El hostel cuenta con luces inteligentes las cuales a la noche en vez de prenderse con toda la intensidad, tiene una brillo medio para no despertar a los que estan durmiendo.
Cuentan con servicio de alquiler de bicicletas en la puerta, por lo que no hay que ir lejos para alquilar una. Escaleras estrechas para subir con las maletas, tampoco cuentan con ascensor.
- Arto (8/5): - Surprize that there are only 2 wc and 2 shower in one floor and there were no queuing. No noise. Bike-rental was good, bacause you had to return it 9 am, so you could use it in the evening. Bed was good and private. Highest bed (3.) is not good, don't take it. I had middle (2.)
- Bianca (8/5): em resumo, foi uma boa acomodação em um hostel, com ótima localização, cama confortável e banheiro que funciona, achei t - gostei que o ambiente é bem confortável, a cama com a cortina ajudam muito na privacidade
os funcionairios muito educados e prestativos
o chuveiro funciona muito bem pressão e água quente, também oferecem toalhas sem custo adicional o que é ótimo! são muitas camas por andar e tem apenas um banheiro unissex com dois chuveiros e dois vasos, então isso acabava sendo um incômodo pq sempre estava cheio, e apesar de eu não ter me sentido desconfortável preferia um banheiro só feminino
as escadas também acabaram sendo um “problema” pra mim pela dificuldade de carregar minhas malas, mas nada que estragasse a hospedagem
só não recomendo para pessoas deficientes pela falta de elevador
- Maria Iriome (8/5): Lovely stay - Very clean and chill, location is perfect.
The female bedroom was very good, I recommend it.
Is safe for female solo travelers
- Omar (10/5): It was as busy as a Bee - It was very clean and felt like I was at home . The stuff were very kind and very welcoming
- Maira (8/5): -
- Luca (10/5): Ci tornerei!!!! - Nonostante fossi nel letto al terzo piano sono stato davvero comodo, ho dormito bene e c’è privacy grazie alla tendina.
Ogni persona dello staff con cui ho avuto a che fare è stata gentilissima e super disponibile, menzione d’onore a Victoria che ci ha dato dei consigli top
Posizione comoda e bagni ok Nella doccia potrebbero mettere un tavolino o qualcosa per appoggiare le cose
- Outouzalt (9/5): - Propre, confortable, personnel sympa, sécurisé pour les affaires personnels. Faut marcher un peu pour arriver à Wallen. Apart ça tout était nickel.
Le prix que j'ai payé était un peu elevé par rapport le prix normal ( mais je pense que c'est a cause de la période qui a coïncidé avec la fête du roi) .
- Coreen (10/5): -
- Yingting (10/5): - The location of this hostel is very good, I can either walk or take the bus to the city. And it is very safe even in night. I am very surprise that we have so many people in the same room but it is very quiet in the night.
- Zeeshan (7/5): -
- Jaime Enrique (10/5): -
- S (10/5): -
- Gaëtan (9/5): Mon logement a contribué à faire de mon séjour à Amsterdam une réussite - Le confort, le calme et la propreté Un ou deux sanitaires en plus (2 éviers pour 27 clients potentiels, c'est peu)
- Liliana (8/5): - Localização numa zona calma, perto dos transportes. Ambiente super tranquilo, apesar de estar num quarto com 20 raparigas, não havia barulho nem confusão. Chuveiros separados das casas-de-banho permitem várias pessoas despacharem-se ao mesmo tempo. Equipa da receção simpática e muito prestável A limpeza da casa-de-banho era feita muito cedo quando as pessoas ainda estavam a descansar, e sendo dentro do quarto havia algum ruído e movimentação a entrar e sair. O espaço entre os beliches é reduzido
- Kristine (6/5): - Great location - nearby restaurants & parks, easy to take them tram to Dam Square Noisy - bathroom doors slamming frequently, and cleaners early morning made it hard to sleep
- Jessica Andrea (7/5): -
- Evangelina (9/5): - Todo hermoso, seguro, limpio, los empleados sumamente atentos
- Parrott (10/5): - Everything Nothing
- Sunwoo (9/5): - 일단 호스탤중애 젤 편하게 묵은거 같아요. 여성전용에서 잤고 시설은 거의 모든게 깔끔했습니다. 직원분도 친절하시고 트램타면 바로 샌트럴로 갈 수 있어요! 그리고 도착하면 무료 커피도 한잔 받을 수 있는 쿠폰을 주세요. 여성방은 너무 조용해서 좋았어요. 화장실도 깔끔했어요 일단 제 베드 커튼이 좀 더러웠어요. 커피자국같은게 있었어요. 그리고 도착후에 직접 침대를 만들어야했고 (커버씌우기) 퇴실할 때에도 직접 걷어서 가져다줘야했어요. 근데 직접 베딩하니까 깔끔해서 좋긴 했어요. 화장실에 세면대랑 샤워가 두개밖에 없긴 했는데 일찍준비해서 불편함 없이 잘 준비했어요
- Leo (5/5): - Close to the city center The third bed is too high and not easy to get there
- Yiğit Arda (9/5): -
- Harumi (8/5): 快適でした - トラムの駅が1分のところにあり、とても便利だった。ベッドも清潔でカーテンがついていたので落ち着いて過ごせた。ドアとロッカーを1枚のカードキーで管理できて便利だった。バスタオルがついていて、トイレやバスルームも清潔に保たれていた。
チェックアウト時に対応してくれたロングヘアの女性スタッフがフレンドリーでとても親切だった。 持参したスリッパを室内で履いていたが、朝起きたら片方が無くなっていた。探しても見つからなかった。
夜中23時半頃から0時を過ぎてもずっと電話してる非常識な人がいてうるさかった。
ロビーがもう少し広かったらなお良かった。
- Beyza (9/5): -
- Fernando José (8/5): - La personas que atendían en el check in Las camas de hasta arriba son algo incómodas de subir y me parece poco solo 2 baños y duchas para 27 personas que están en una habitación
