Aivengo Hostel Reviews

Well the staff is no te very nice, they just don't care, the rooms are good but they need to have lights for each bed not one for the entire room, the wc is unbelievable small !! and they need calefaction or better mantles. I will think twice before returning. however it is a good value for money.

The Hostel was a real nightmare. We spent 3 nights in a 10-Femal-Dorm. Nevertheless there have been 11 beds in the room and just one bathroom. The sheets were dirty and the beds were old, squeaky and uncomfortable. The whole place was dirty (especially the bathroom) and the staff seemed to be drunk and confused. Only the location was excellent. It's located right in the middle of Amsterdam, only 5 min away from the train station. But still I would never recommend this hostel to anyone.

I dont how how its possible to this place be acceptable as a ''youth hostel''.. The place is not cleaned enough.Toilets are a bit old. .Also there is no toilet seats in the toilet.yes!. The mattress is thin than a paper so I was on the top of a bunk bed and the bed bar hit my back, thats ridiculous. you wont be able to sleep in this hostel. there are no facilities at all.. thumbs up for the location though

the staff were super unfriendly and had no suggestions of good places to go and did not want to socialize, which is not what a hostel should be like. but the room was nice, but a bit overpriced.

Great room with kitchenette and great Dutch row house character. Located just outside of the red light district 5 minutes away from both the train station and the main square, it was the perfect location to start exploring Amsterdam.

Security was very lax for the two 20-person rooms: the front door to the hostel is always open, and the doors to each of the two 20-person dorms were often kept hanging open. This meant that if there's no one at reception/if you look like someone who would be using the hostel (they did stop a homeless-looking guy), no one bats an eye when you walk in. The atmosphere is sub-par, the "kitchen" is really just a kettle and a microwave IN THE WASHROOM. But the staff is nice, and great location.

Only one bathroom ( wc inside!!) for a "10 beds" room. We were not sure that they clean the bathroom and room every day. the staff was just 'correct'.

Good hostel! Good location as well.

Cool location. Too bad that there are no toilet seats. clean and good value.

Good hostel,Location is great.only the badhroom and toilets not clean so much.

The room I stayed in - 16 all female - was very loud, bright, and the stove didn't work. More than anything, I was disappointed by the other women staying in my room - loud and disrespectful. The only lights are floor lamps, so when they turned them on at 4 a.m., the entire room lit up. Otherwise, the hostel is sufficient, clean enough, with nice staff and a good location. Good value for money, don't expect anything fancy, but its nice enough. May be cold in the winter - only one fleece blanket

Great location, nice people working, gave us lots of advice as to where to go and see, i enjoyed my stay !! only downfalls (in the mixed dorm) were that the bathroom stalls were open to everyone, very small space inside the bathroom and no toilet seats, also always smelt bad, some beds were awful in terms of the mattress there was barely even one and it felt like you were sleeping on wood. a very small thin blanket was provided so we were often cold at night. the female dorm was must nicer !

it is good for sleeping.

The hostel wasn't clean, WC were dirty and smelly, beds aren´t good but the location was really good.

bad experience. if you've got better choices, this one is not recommended.

Had an awesome time here. Staff were great. Beds were fine. Good social vibe.

The facilities are all quite poor and the bed sheets even got holes on them. We are living on the fifth floor of the building, and they don't even have an elevator! I don't really even bother to describe the washing room and the shower. They couldn't even make sure that you could always have hot water to use!

great staff, fantastic location, highly recommended!!

Everything is lovely, but there're no lifts! I lived on the 5th floor and no lift!

I stayed in a ten-girl room, the girls got out late in the night and returned in the midnight, talked loud,etc...kind of hard to get some good sleep.Shower gets cold if more than one person take a quick shower one after another. But the hostel is very close to the central station...
