I thought our treatment was unacceptable,,We came back to the hostel on our second day to find our beds stripped, and told to vacate the premises to another hostel. They had a booking for ten people and needed our room, This was the reason we were given. We had booked our room two months in advance. I was assured before agreeing to vacate, that the hostel room .we were going to be relocated to was of the same standard and with on-suite as we had.,It had No on-suite, small, dingy, noisy

Staff has a very strange sense of humour, forcing jokes and with an strange concept of hospidality Rooms are small and probably you will had to go up and down the typical Dutch starirs many times. The common room has orientative timetable ( Sometimes close at 12 others 11.15...)

the bathroom was just horrible. A strong smell was coming out of the toilet. I would suggest to use a mop and clean the bathroom properly instead of vacuum cleaning it. Free breakfast: I wouldnt pay for just bread and jam. Good point: WIFI

Staff provides good information and takes good care of the facilities. Breakfast could be a little bit richer with more selection. Overall a very good stay.

Hi There were few difficulties and unexpected results out of the online booking we did. 1. Initially, we paid the deposit money and also the overall booking amount was debitted from our account as Authorisation 2. We were asked to pay the remaining money during check in. 3. The amount debitted as Authorisation was not creditted back to us. 2. If possible, take out this concept of authorisation which is troubling the customers very badly to get back their own money . Hope this is considered.

This hostel was run terribly. They ended up overbooking our room so at 2 in the morning my friend had to switch rooms . The staff didn't know what they were doing and the hostel was overpriced for what they gave us. The rooms were also extremely hot and stuffy even though it was cold outside and they tried to make us leave our groceries downstairs because food isn't allowed in the rooms.

we are very upset about out stay. We picked that hostel and the certain room type because of a special offer. Handing our printed hostelworld receipt to reception upon arrival at the place, we've been told it was a mistake and we had to pay a higher price (29,99) for the second night as well. We were told we could sort things with the manager next morning, who never showed up. It is not acceptable to advertise a false price and make customers pick a bad value hostel!!

Everything was ok, but the security in the hotel doesnt work. cameras that dont record. Friend of mine got stolen, in the a public space of the hotel, with cameras. we wanted to check the cameras, to see, who stole the purse, and the hostel simply said "no, its impossible the cameras dont work" So, for your security, never go there. unless you dont care about that ofcourse

The room for two, where we have stayed was tiny!! The toilet was so located, that it war impossible to close the door when you are there, the door would be, in that case, in front of your nose and without any light! I expected real breakfast and not just white toast bread with jam, cheap variation of nutella and margarine. This can not be called a breakfast!!!! The sheets were dirty! I do not recommend this hostel and will never stay here again!
