Hostelworld says

Hostelworld guests at Flying Pig Downtown frequently comment on the hostel's high standard of cleanliness as well as their staff, who one of our visitors described as "adorable, very friendly, talkative, helpful, and always in a good mood." We like this hostel's location in a central area of Amsterdam, about ten minutes from the Centraal Station – "which was easy to get to from the airport," making it the "perfect way to experience everything Amsterdam has to offer." Reviewers tell us this is a good place to meet fellow travelers as there are usually "people hanging out at the bar, playing pool, or socializing."
