STAY AWAY!!! The place is a dump. There was actual poo on the floor in the restroom off the lobby. When we told them we couldn't stay because if was such a dump, they refused to refund ANY of our money even though we never stayed there.

Not recommended
During the check in they said it was cash only. It was not mentioned before. The room had an ensuite bathroom this is good. But the room was dirty, and when they change sheets they drag it on the dirty floor. I would avoid. BR

This hostel was the worst place we've ever stayed, a real dump. The room was 2x1m or similar, it was dirty and stank, and there were pubic hairs in my bed (which looked like it had been salvaged from a WWII hospital). The staff are also difficult and rude. Not only did we have to pay cash but when we asked for another sheet for my bed, they didn't want to give it to us! There's also 4 very narrow flights of stairs to the top which makes carrying luggage up really difficult. The WiFi doesn't work either. The toilets & showers are so small (think broom closet) that they are not functional. To summarise: do not stay here!!

The room was mundane, dirty and smelt. Staff were rude. The location was perfect just a shame about the hotel. They charged us an extra 70 euros when we arrived for possibly one of the most disgusting rooms I've ever stayed in.

cheap, but..
Mice everywhere. Staff was nice but sometimes noisy when hanging out in the lobby. No real kitchen, just a microwave. Room was ok, odd smell in the bathroom though.

Meh, worst hostel I've ever stayed in
Room was over-priced considering its condition. Only 3 sockets in a 10-person room, you literally have to fight with your roommates to charge your phone at night. No in-room locker. Wifi was bad, I get disconnected frequently. Free breakfast was simply bread and coffee. And above all the worst is that you can only pay cash at their reception - imagine you're so worn out after a whole day's exploration and just want to check-in and rest, only to be told by the cute reception "M'am there is an ATM a few blocks away".

DO NOT STAY - TRUST ME!!
Worst hostel experience I have ever had. Management was rude, they kept charging us random fees, and we had trouble at check out to get our deposit back. I do not write reviews, but I am writing one about this place because it was such a terrible experience...

Good location but terrible service and conditions.
The location is the only good thing about this hostel. The staff is not friendly and didn't even make an effort to help with our questions. The rooms were boiling hot and so uncomfortable. I had to climb to my bed through this other guy's bed and almost stepped all over him. They have no lockers either so def bring as lock for your bag. The shower was the worst, but oh no wait, it was actually the toilet that was the worst. Do not get fooled by the 'Free Breakfast'. It only runs from 8 to 9.30 or so and they give you tea, coffee, and stale bread with some jam. Next time I am in Amsterdam, I'll pass on this hostel!

Dormitory
Expect what you would find in a dormitory filled with youth! I find the price is a little bit high considering I could have gotten a room for myself for cheeper. I was very surprised by how quiet the place was (despite the fact that we were in Amsterdam)

Choose another. People who work there are kind of rude. The beds and mattresses are horrible. It only accepts cash and it's a bit far from the center. Pay a little more and choose another one, that's what I'm going to do.
