I had a great stay at Dopa. Everything was perfect except the shower need to be turned up a notch for the kiwi from way down south. The hostel was kept spotlessly clean and the staff made sure everyone was kept happy. I would recommend the hostel 100%

Just perfect! Everything was to notch and I was made to feel welcome and comfortable in spite of being a golden oldie. The staff were most helpful and everything ws clean and sparkling. As for the breakfast - it was unreal! As I said it was all perfect from start to finish. Unfortuntely I was only there for one night.. Thank you St Christopher's. I will know where to stay next time I am in London.

I thoroughly recommend this hostel to anyone. It is very convenient from the airport or if you want to spend the time in Amsterdam Central. Thank you Dutchies.

My stay was most enjoyable and the staff went out of their way to give you local info or help with next booking. I thought a hostel next to the airport would be so handy, no need to catch a bus or taxi but when the planes flew out over the top of the hostel I thought I might have made a mistake but no I didn't. Generally there are no planes flying out during the night. I t is a great hostel just a short distance from a beautiful white sandy beach. I had a wonderful stay..

The location was excellent but the staff left a bit to b e desired. One guy was excellent the other very offhand and one night I had difficulty even getting a cup of boiling water. When leaving with a heavy pack, it seemed they could not order a taxi for me as i only had about 4 or 5 blocks to go so I just walked. This one guy did not even get off his chair and open the door (a few steps away). I am nearer 80 than 70 and expect to have a door opened for me. The staff let down their hostel

Dear Guest, We tried our best for you to make everything easier but seems that it did not work. We could have arranged a taxi but it is a very short walk so taxi does not want to go that way.We explained you and you said 'ok'. Also our door is automatic so we just open it like that. We wish we had time to take you to the shuttle but we can not leave the hostel Best Regards.

I had a wonderful stay there and came back after two weeks for another five days so that says t all. We did have a little hiccup with an airport pick up but it was no big deal. Their breakfasts are truly magnificent and include a wide range of fresh fruit. They have their own chefs and the dinners they make are up with the best. thank you Sabah for a wonderful stay.

The hostel was wonderful. I have said location and atmosphere were excellent and they are but then again I speak as an older person. I loved the almost camp atmosphere and it was like living in the country. The scenery and walks round about were wonderful and being part of a very old circled city was unique.. The staff and cleanliness eas superb and all the little extras touches made the place feel like home.

The staff went out of their way to make me welcome and comfortable, giving me a better room (for the same price) then I had specified. They were thinking of my comfort. The situation is excellent and the rooms kept in tip-top order. I have stayed in a number of hostels over the last two months and Florida Hostel was one of the best. they go that little bit better and add touches of comfort not normally available at hostels. They made me feel a valued customer.

It is a great place to stay. When I just put good for atmosphere that is only because I found the common room a little noisy at times but it is not a valid point because I am an oldie and most hostelers are young ones. I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Abraham's. When we had a siren call they were ready with instructions over a loud speaker so we all could understand the importance of moving quickly downstairs to the basement. I recommend Abraham Hostel as first rate.

It was the best hostel I have stayed in. Dominica did everything to make my trip enjoyable. The hostel is kept spotlessly clean, the beds are very comfortable and Dominica went out of her way to tell me info about the town and to make sure I was comfortable. I only intended to stay over night but when I came back through Warsaw a week later I made a point of staying again. Yes it is on the fourth floor and there is no lift but at 77 I found that no problem. Its a great place to stay

Absolutely perfect and I have said I will b back next year to stay longer. The only little hitch as far as I am concerned is lock-out from your rooms for five hours in the middle of the day. You can leave baggage there during that time but are not allowed inside. the weather was fine when I was there but if the weather was not so good it is a long time for a shut out. However the staff and other aspects made up for it. The place was spotless.

I had a most enjoyable time at the hostel. the staff were wonderful. The only difficult thing was finding the hostel at the start. It has the name on the front but you can easily pass by without seeing it. I suggest a sign nearer the pavement would be a big help. It is near the metro and a wonderful location and easy to get to. It was in a quiet street and for an oldie like me just perfect.
