Great location, clean and quiet rooms. But did not need the entire dorm awoken by staff member announcing that one guest needed to check out in an hour. Wrong!!!!

Located near to night life area and easily accessible by tram. Need to be mindful that rooms might be located at 2, 3 or 4 floor which means that need to climb a lot of stairs! No kitchen area i.e. No hot water/micro-oven. However, there is a smoking room which is a good thing! :)

If you didnt come to amsterdam to get stoned, dont stay at this hostel. The whole place smells like weed. Wasnt a big problem for me but it would be good to see adequate ventilation in the smoking room for people who dont smoke because it is the only common area. Other than that the hostel is actually quite good. Showers were alright, the beds were comfy and the lockers in the rooms had more than enough room and the staff were always helpful. I had great people in my room so i really enjoyed it.

The timed lights in the toilets are far too quick, you'll almost be ready to start and the room will go dark, you have to stand there waving your hand in the air the entire time. Other than that it was great, love the house cat.

International Budget Hostel is in a very good location. However, one thing to be aware is that its counter closes early. So you might not be able to get help at night. I got a bed in the attics and it was a pleasant stay.

Liked the location and the lockers. The showers are way to small and get your stuff wet way too easley, only problem.

The place was alright, the lounge was nice - We were out and about most of the time and only came to the Hostel to sleep - everything was in order, the place is all together alright - a regular old hostel - They were nice enough, the beds were clean enough and that was all we needed, all in all - a nice stay...

The staff varied in friendliness and helpfulness greatly. The checkout policy was very rigid. However, the location was good being a block away from the metro and liedesplien square. Being able for rent bikes from them was also convenient

It was an alright stay, nothing special. It smelled of bleach and mold everytime we came in. Smoke room was nice. Defiantly could do better for the money you spend here.

Great location, close by to everything that you would want to go. Can hire a bike from them, if you need to go a bit further or just look around the town. There are also large lockers in the room, bit enough to everything you have.

The hostel had a really good atmosphere where i met a lot of different people. The staffs were really helpful and nice. Although there are things that could be improved. For example the shower where the nozzle is stuck to the ceiling and some minor squeaky doors. Other than that it's really good for the price!
