    The bed was 2 seperate 1 person matresses that kept sliding apart. This is minor though really and that's the only thing I didnt like.

    The location was very good and the rooms were clean. Staff was very friendly. The hostel has a cozy bar where you can have a drink or eat a pizza which is very nice. Also very close to metro/tram!

    Dusty room, broken mirror, floor is too loud when roommates walked. There is a box under the bed for luggage, but it doesn’t have a locker (you can buy one for 5 euro at the reception).

    Great location, quiet rooms, friendly staff

    I did not like the feeling of living in a pub, but in the room it was perfectly fine.

    The room was cosy and surprisingly quiet even if outdoors people were gathering for drinks. The only reason I don't give 10 stars is because of the location.

    Due to the prime location there is quite some noise at night. The room had sun all day and with not being able to open the windows all the way we could not cool it down that well.

    The location is quite central and the 24hour reception was helpful. The adjacent bathroom was convenient and the curtains afforded privacy.

    The noise from bars outside until 3 am and I could not sleep until 4 am because the loud from people around the bars outside was absolutely insane.

    Everything was good and met my expectations. Staff are responsive to my request.

    Confortable and very well located, in a street full of bars! Once the windows were closed, no issues with the noise from the street! There was a fan in the room. We also did an early checkin, and this was very appreciated.

    The location is very ideal, close to the central train station only around 20mins walk. They also have a full-servicing kitchen which was really great. Beds were one of the most comfortable ones that I have slept on and most of all, kudos to the staff who were always there to assist you with genuine smiles. Shout-out to Andreas and also to the lady manager (did not get her name) from Romania for their tiptop excellent service!! Thanks for making my stay a great one!

    The Best Hotel in R'dam

    Sometime a bit loud outside the hotel, because this hotel located in the Gastronomy area (a lot of Cafes and Restaurant around there)

    This is the best hotel that i found in Rotterdam . I was really surprised the size of the Bed was perfect for me (Female Room Only) and the Bathroom was also really clean. I am really happy i can stay in this area since it is not so far from R'dam Centraal Station. Only 3 Station with the Tramline. I would like to recommend this hotel to everybody .

    1 toilet for 60 beds. Toilet roll maintenance slow. People come in the night drunk or high and make a lot of noise. Not for night sleepers. No free coffee or nothing in the morning. Very crammed rooms.

    Receptionist also works at the bar, but he looked much more interested in cleaning dishes and chatting with girls, rather then attending me to do the check-in for almost 20 minutes

    Great central location on a vibrant street full of cafes, bars, and street art. Everything was clean and comfortable. I particularly liked the common area where you can work, chill in a bar, or cook your own meals in the kitchen. There was always really good music playing in the bar/common area! The staff was nice and helpful (and with great music taste, judging the playlists ;) The WiFi signal was excellent and suitable for working. What is important to realize is that it is never quiet in this hostel, there is music in the bar downstairs and lots of people and other bars on the street. I was prepared for this and it didn't bother me but the street is not a good choice for light sleepers and/or those looking for peace and quiet :)

    I was a bit confused about the fact, that the rooms had no doors on one floor. But in the end it wasn't a problem

    My room (8 bed dorm) had 3 bunk beds and two single beds on a kind of an extra level with a personal window. I was lucky to get one of the single beds and really appreciated it

    Big common kitchen, modern and cozy room. The room is very clean too.
