This hostel is full of very old people, I ended up in my room with a creepy junkie woman that was hallucinating due to her addiction and a very unpolite eastern old man swearing the entire night. A cleaning lady came at 7am to pick up the dorm trash and that was super annoying to start bothering the travellers that early. Overall, that’s not the best place to stay in Amsterdam for what you have to pay, specially during summer time.

International Budget Hostel says

We're in a traditional canal building just around the corner from Leidseplein, which is one of the main nightlife and entertainment areas in Amsterdam. On a 10-minute walk you can find some of the main museums, such as Anne Frank House, the Van Gogh museum and the Rijksmuseum. In a 15-minute walk you're in the heart of the Red Light District. On a warm day, I think the Vondelpark is a wonderful place to hang out, and if you're looking for quirky souvenirs the Flower Market is a great place to go. We offer guests the opportunity to book several tours, like free city tours, bike tours and pub crawls. We also rent out bikes to guests. We pay a lot of attention to detail here here and hygiene is a priority. Because it's a hostel there's not much luxury, but you can definitely expect to have a clean bed and shower.
