Shocking the situation of our room, dirty floor with rubbish all around. We couldn't date to put anything in the floor. The toilets situation was disgusting. We also found bedbugs on our beds! I get it is a cheap hostel and would complain if it was only the lack of blinds on the massive windows or even the depressing state of conservation of the building, but keeping that dirt the place people are paying to sleep is simply disrespectful and unacceptable.

Everything, was nothing like its pictures. It was absolutely disgusting and unsafe. The shower had a pile of vomit in it and the toilets were disgusting. It was literally a room with two bunkers in, no curtains and no privacy at all to get dressed. Staff was extremely rude when I spoke to them about the state of the showers and informed me that there was nothing that could be done about it. So disappointed and it completely ruined my experience in Amsterdam.

Dirty rooms with horribly dirty and uncomfortable beds. The showers and bathrooms are the worst part. Pee covered and unsterile is just a nice way to describe half of the gross condition of the toilets and showers.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was very dirty, lots of flies as the bin hadn't been emptied from the last guests and the carpet was very stained, with rubbish bags and bags of bedding up all the way up the already steep stairs. There was a group of people being turned away last minute as we arrived and we had to fill out a check in form despite already having to do online check in forms which provided the same information. There was also only cold water for showers and hand washing, and then the water cut out entirely when we returned in the evening and wasn't reinstated until morning. This was difficult as my partner and I became quite ill and weren't able to get to reception to purchase water so ended up very dehydrated. Water should have been provided to the rooms in bottles during the cut.

My stay was the worst I've had of anywhere I've stayed. Within the room, the floors, sink and walls were dirty. The bathrooms were dirty and ran out of toilet paper quickly. The curtains were missing, which meant I had to turn off the lights to change (to not be viewed by others on the streets and in buildings across the street). The first day the internet/entire system went down and I wasn't able to access my keys, and the code I was given was wrong. I wasn't able to do work or use the internet at all. The second day the water went out which meant that the toilets didn't flush and the sink didn't work. This meant guests were using the bathroom and unable to flush. I will never stay here again.

🚫 Avoid this hostel at all costs! 🚫 This was one of the worst travel experiences I’ve ever had! A staff member from Portugal at reception scammed me for €10 “early check-in” and €5 luggage storage after checkout — later I found out there’s no such policy, he just pocketed the money. The beds are infested with bed bugs. After just one night, my wife’s arms and legs were covered in painful bites. Doors don’t lock from the inside; staff can open them anytime with their keys. Unsafe and untrustworthy. The entrance is dirty, with staff and others constantly blocking the way, smoking joints and making it uncomfortable to pass.

Abysmal service. Avoid at all cost unless cost

I can't begin to describe the filth in their toilets!!! The workers care less, not enforcing bed allocation. Found several bed bugs, bad carpet upholstery causing fall.
