Hostel Centraal Reviews

Very nice staff

This place is great for young adults who need a cheap place to crash for a few nights while they explore the city. Me and four friends got a 5 bed room, with a simple shower/bathroom. The location is around a 15 minute walk to Dam square, just follow the tram lines! Or get the tram for around 2.80 euro. The staff here are very friendly, and there is a small communal area on the 1st floor where you can meet other travelers. Would stay here again.

very nice and helpful staff, but very dirty hostel!

In winter, the room is a bit cold. However, it is really good place for staying at a cheap price.

great value and staff

It is what it is. Bare necessities hostel. Clean and secure with friendly staff. Fairly good location just outside city centre. If you are on a budget it is the place to be, just don't expect acommon room, luxurious toilets, a kitchen. Not a very social hostel so better for travelling in groups. Would stay here again

Unfriendly staff, extremely overpriced for what you get Definitely not central like the name suggests

You get what you pay for during Monday to thurs, however on Friday night the rate is tripled. Doesn't matter what country or location in my opinion the Friday rate is far too much considering the quality of the facilities. The toilets in the 8bed share dorm are right next to the beds, so expect everyone to hear everything. also they were pretty unclean. The showers likewise. Also no one was at reception at 8:30am when we had to check out which was weird.

I really enjoyed the days I spent here; the problem: the "bathroom" is just a wc and the shower box was like a small room with a sink in to wash your face. Apart from this, the location is perfect, few minutes far from the centre .

The staff was very helpful and nice, the hostel is clean and well located - really close to the city centre and metro. However, the street is a bit too noisy (trams going by), there is very little extra space at the room as well as bathroom etc.

The hostel is fine, nothing special, not bad.

This hostel was one of the worst experiences of my trip. The hostel doesn´t count with any common facility except from the place where you can have breakfast (3.5 EUR). In my room there were two guys that looked like drug dealers and were really messy and smelly. The staff wasn´t very helpfull when I asked the typical things, like where is a supermarket or just a place to eat. It is definitly not a backpackers hostel, it is just a place to spend a (really bad) night.
