Amsterdam Hostel Orfeo Reviews

leaving the coffee and the tea all day is excellent. breakfast could be more varied. took money out of my account with no reason.

Good location, walked around pretty much everywhere. Staff is very friendly, and indeed there to help you.

NO WIFI INTERNET IN ROOMS, i told the staff about it, but they said it was my device, they would check the router, but did not apologize or seem concerned at all. The private rooms are right next to the stairs, really loud when you hear all the guests come home late at night, or leave early in the morning. Bathroom on each floor was nice surprise, did not have too much traffic waiting for the facilities. Great location on safe street right off of Leidsplein.

close to tram. many restaurants around hostel. staff was really helpful.

the toliets were dirty and always smelly

Wonderful hostel, great location surrounded by restaurants and abrs and spitting distance from the leidsplein only problem is that we booked and paid for a double room and received a bunk bed...fairly annoying as a couple on holiday, aside from that would defintley reccomend

A decent hostel for the price. Good if you just want to get out and explore Amsterdam and have a place to stay.

The only problems I had were the mold and not being able to open a window

Very nice and clean hostel in the city centre/bar area of Amsterdam. Friendly staff, free Amsterdam map and breakfast. Although there are no lockers in the rooms, you can store your valuables in a locker at the reception desk for free. Not noisy, clean sheets, and (during my stay) no noisy other guests stumbling upon the old stairs so typical for Amsterdam houses like the one the Orfeo hostel is situated in. I would definately reccomend this hostel!

Mold in the rooms, disgusting facilities, everything dirty and smelly, especially the toilets. Staff unfriendly, didn't even say goodbye when checking out.

generally is good hostel- nice location ,stuff guys good except 2 another gyus.reAD THE RULES guys rooms small and dirty honestly nice hall room and not badkitchen

I had some very nice days with my friends in this hostel. Just the bathroom was not that clean and I would have liked a shelf or something in the room. But location and stuff was awesome! Thanks for that.

I've never stayed in such a pathetic hostel in my life, coming from Prague and Berlin ( which I raved about) I was extremely disappointed by orfeo! The staff were arrogant and never helped with a single thing, always an excuse! They didn't even bother to help a girl who was by herself carry her bags to the 3rd floor! ( since there's no elevator) it was just a very shabby poorly run hostel and I won't go back nor recommend it to anyone I know,,, a bad reflection on hostelworld as a whole!!!!

The hostel is 10 minutes walk from the centre and 2 minutes from Leidseplein - everything is nearby, there is free internet, nice breakfast and in short: I think it was perfect for the money we gave :)

As those written reviews, be careful on the stairs.... Not very modern or popular style, but clean and easeful

It's a nice place very cheap, very well located, and very friendly.

Nice staff and peacefull atmosphere (no drinking and partying), no lockers on the rooms so if you're staying on rooms with unknowns it is not that safe.

The staff wasn´t very friendly, the room was too small for 12 people. the only stand out thing was the location, which was near to everything.

Only stayed 1 night. The hostel is pretty clean and safe. Its in a very nice area. Its also very cheap midweek. However it lacks character and the breakfast was horrible - longlife packet bread with jam/marge/nutella and nasty orange cordial was all that was on offer. So I would say don't even bother with the breakfast. Really I would recommend staying on a houseboat over this place. They are a bit pricer but much nicer and a great experience that you will always remember.
