A great hostel! Very friendly and helpful staff and clean rooms. Great that the lockers were inside the rooms and not out in the hallway, felt safe to leave your things at the hostel. Great location, very central - a walking distance to almost anything you wanted to see. The only thing missing was a kitchen to cook your own food in and the temperature in the hallway toilets were freezing. We would gladly recommend this hostel!

The hostel was dirty. I flushed the toilet in the bathroom on the second floor and it backed up into the sink.

We could not take a shower at 9 o' clock in the morning because the water was steaming hot!

There is no elevator in the hotel and the steps of the stairs are high. The water in the shower often suddenly becomes very cold. One morning the desk clerk opened the door to my room and came into my room without asking permission. il n'y a pas d'ascenseur dans l'hôtel et les marches de l'escalier sont élevés. L'eau de la douche souvent soudainement devenir très froid. Un matin, le réceptionniste a ouvert la porte de ma chambre et entra dans ma chambre sans demander la permission.

Dear Claid, sorry about the elevator but you did not need one as you had a room on the ground floor? Each morning our cleaners ask to clean your room.

Beds were very unstable and broken. Could also use a bit of added charm or something the hostel is very boring and bland looking. Staff were decent and helped us with pointing out sights to see

Friendly and helpful staff, perfect location, had everything a hostel needs to have. Unlike other hostels I looked at did NOT charge triple rate for weekend nights!

Love this hostel. Not the nicest in town, and its a little ways from the main attractions, however the staff is great, and there are plenty of things to do in the area. Especially enjoy the laid back atmosphere.

It was a great hotel for a place to stay. It didn't have much character or a good feel though. I was hoping for more from a hostel in Amsterdam, but there was nothing really wrong with it.

great experience! staffers were quite friendly, helpful and enjoyed liquid refreshments till the wee hours of the morning with us. rooms were your basic, but what more do you need...just a bed to sleep in. 15 min walk north from the Gloucester Road Underground stop. Overall, a great stay, in an upscale, safe neighborhood.

Terrible shower, it was impossible to have a bath without getting burned AND frozen to death. We were on the third floor and the stairs killed us. Great wifi. Heatter at the room was good. Location is ok, 20 minutes walk from the center. Instructions to get to the hostel are terrible, took us at least 30 minutes to find it. Scary lady walked in the room every morning to collect the trash. Breakfast was ok (not included). Room was ok.
