I choose this Hostel, among other things, because it is christian. I am not christian but that fact has to gives you an idea on what to wait... Yes christians are rather predictable, bibles everywhere, conservative environment, etc. etc. If you are looking for clean sheets, and just a place to spend the night "safe" this is the place. Fun you can find everywhere in Amsterdam, so the hostel you pick can be boring as long as it's clean!I choose this Hostel, among other things, because it is christian.

This was a really clean, well set up hostel. The showers were warm, the toilets and showers were clean, the rooms were clean and the staff were helpful. Unfortunately the lockers in the room didn't lock very well but that was the only problem.This was a really clean, well set up hostel.

Shelter Jordan is an excellent escape from the usual goings on in Amsterdam. It is quiet, extremely well kept (rare in Amsterdam for less than 28euros a night), and they have terrifically friendly staff. Downsides are a complete intolerance to alcohol or drugs, even being overtly under the influence. Understandable as they are trying to encourage good Christian morals, but definitely not for party animals.Shelter Jordan is an excellent escape from the usual goings on in Amsterdam.

An amiable place, nice cafetaria - Seth, Hank, Dana et al. were helpful and it was nice to chat with the hostel staff. We recommended it to a Serbian girl who arrived at the Amstel station from Berlin. The advice we got at the Hostel for sight-seeing was specific and useful. The atmosphere is cheerful.
