The first impressions as we entered was an overwhelming smell of urine, whilst the guy in reception was quite friendly and helpful, this did not make up for the dirty rooms and bathrooms, with exposed piping and wires. The location is close to a number of cool bars. But definitely will not be returning

There was a really group atmosphere, something that i wasn't looking for because i was staying for one night but most people will probably find this to their liking. There was also food that you could cook at any time, beer and wine that you could drink and a rich breakfast, and the staff was very friendly. However, as you would expect for so big dorms, it wasnt so clean, and there were only 3 showers, 2 of them shared with other dorms and one of them had a malfunctioning door.

this hostel is very free, there has a great living room with guitars and piano, you can play it freely, and you have free food all the time! but the shower rooms are not clean and some of them don't have hot water.

Dutch people are a bit null and unpleasent. That hostel is a shiny exception with worm people who in the end become your friends, excellant cook for free, and an atmosphere of freedom and cultural expression that you can rarelly find anywhere. I reccomend it with all my heart i had a great time!

they might be good when not tooo many people are there, but if it get busy it becomes messy, dirty, noisy, the staff tried to do there best, but the place is too small compared to the person they wanted to stick in it!

We can't change the building - it is a monument, it is under protection of the city

At B and B Utrecht City you can eat all the time. the offer fresh fruits, bread, eggs, meat etc. The kitchen can be used any time. The only con is the old building.
