Fine if ALL you want is a place to sleep, with a great location. One toilet/shower per floor (for about 20-25 people). No common room per se but you can hang out in the cafe downstairs. Only one electric outlet in the room, and we had six beds! BUT it was clean, had a great location, and the staff was always helpful and friendly.

We stayed at Mevlana Hotel for one night. Staff and Cleanliness was okay, but the rooms were very small. For one night okay, but I wouldn't recommend staying longer. The location was perfect in the center of Amsterdam and easy to find. All in all absolutely okay!!

Location was great, but the rooms were tiny and pretty dirty. One of our blankets had a huge stain on it and we found an old grilled cheese sandwich under one of the beds.

Dirty smelly unsafe place. Way over priced. Over 900 euro for 4 people over three nights.. With dirty bathrooms ( showers smelt like urine. Just noteworthy of a visit, let my dog live there.. Left after 2 nights. As we asked for a refund the day we arrived and then again on second day all we got offed was to move rooms. Stairs are totally unsafe lawsuit waiting to happen.. Dodgy workers cleaner was going into the rooms even when they were not booking out, he would say oh you check out, No sorry.

I read review before I stayed about the stairs but didn't believe them until I climbed them!!! they really were very steep and narrow, but so are all the stairs in Amsterdam! So after 4 days you being to love them. at the end of a night out you will fear climbing them :) hint: get on all fours! Its a 10min

We stayed over queens day and roomed in a 4 person dorm. The staff were helpful and friendly. The location was great. Not the nicest hostel in decor, but met our needs. No lockers in room though. Just a storage room with a lock. Bring luggage locks. Wifi was good.

Hostel isn't that bad if you search a place to stay very, very close to the center. It's only one street to Dam Square, right next to the Magna Plaza. Staff is very friendly and they offer free WiFi. The bathrooms aren't that good, but it's ok if you search a place just to stay at. My 8-dorm-room was ok. Maybe little dark, but for sleeping it was a good and clean place. Would go there again and hope for not snoring drommates ;) Be aware that they want to charge you 5% for using the creditcard!

Absolutely nothing to complain! Really a 'value for money'. Room was small (4 bed dorm), and the bunk beds were ok at best. Rooms and toilet/shower were clean.. Nice and helpful staff. Nice minimarket/restaurant downstairs. Excellent location, just a stroll from central station and red lights. If digging hard enough, I could mention about the stairs. My room was in 4th floor and the stairs were Really Steep. So not for elder or people with disabilities and/or weak heart... =)

It was a very tiny hostel barely could move or leave your items anywhere. It also had a weird stench so once I left all my clothes smelled like that hostel too. Its very dark so it makes it more unpleasant .

The location is really good. Close to the Square, the Red Light District, awesome coffee shops, supermarket, tram station, souvenir shops as well as Amsterdam Centraal. Rooms are clean. There isn't thaaaat much space inside, but don't worry, nothing you can't handle. There was a TV in the room we lived in, that provided a great entertainment though we got a private room. Toilet is a little small, shower room is spacious. The staffs were really friendly and helpful. Would return again.

Perfect located right in the middle between the Dam and the Centraal Station. The rooms are quite small as well as the stairs, but I guess that's a common characteristic in those old houses in Amsterdam. The staff was great and very helpful giving all kinds of tips and indications, with special regards to Joao, the guy working on the reception during the afternoon.
