Hostelle

The Hostelle is comfortable and most of the staff are friendly and welcoming. It is clean, with shower rooms being cleaned each morning. Towels are offered (SMALL) for €2.50 to rent, so if you prefer large towels you would have to bring your own or buy one in the mall close by. The area is a bit far out from Amsterdam Centraal, about a 35 minute metro ride with 10/11 stops. This is fine during the day and if you plan to be out all day without returning. If you wanted somewhere you can drop in and out of quickly while exploring the city center this wouldn’t be the place. The area at night however feels unsafe and there are lots of men who linger in the Main Street, both during the day and at night. The curtain above my bed had lipstick stains all over which was off putting, but the bed lined itself was spotless. The kitchen is well equipped and I was able to leave luggage in a luggage room when I checked out until 5pm which was good. The cages under the bed are useful for keeping things safe, bring a sturdy lock with you or you can buy one there. There is a Lidl nearby which is very handy if you’re on a budget, you can cook meals in the kitchen instead of eating out.

Such a beautifully organized place with friendly staff. Bonus for being a women's only hostel. Train/ metro stations are also really close as well as so many markets and places you could eat at. Would definitely go back!

The best hostel I have ever been to, the fact that it is ONLY GIRLS is a huge bonus. The kitchen was very big and easy to share, fresh coffe and tea was for free. The bathrooms were very clean and large. The beds were very comfortable and there was a locker in the room for each person. The employees were very nice and helpful.

The guests here seemed to treat it more like an apartment than a travelers hostel. Many have been staying there for months. Not necessarily a bad thing, but something we weren't aware of when booking. It just gave the place a different vibe. The biggest issue we had was with the room theme. From the pictures they all look bright and cheery but we were put in the Fifty Shades of Grey room. This could've been triggering for some people, as there were whips and handcuffs all over, and should be disclosed to guests at or before check in. Pros: kitchen was well stocked with cooking supplies, close to train station, nice shopping center, staff seemed nice but we only interacted with them at check in so I can't say how helpful they are beyond that Cons: my locker was broken, the lockers were only big enough for a backpack, the blind on the floor to ceiling window in the room was broken and wouldn't close, mold in the showers, the showers splashed water out into the rest of the bathroom and the hall, many stores in the shopping center (Albert Heijn included) didn't accept any credit cards or cash at self checkouts

Perfectly accessible, 15 minutes from Amsterdam Central Station by metro. By car, there is a Q-park 22 or 23 next to the Hostelle to park your car, making you almost immediately able to enter the Hostelle. Cosy & clean room + bathroom & kitchen are perfect!

Thoroughally enjoyed my time staying at the hostelle with 8 friends, the hostelle is amazing everthing you need, very clean and you feel very safe and has friendly staff. Will definitely be returning.
