4/10 Fair

Everything went smoothly during my stay. The beds were comfortable, the lockers were useful for storage, the other guests were friendly and the staffs were very kind. As a Deaf guest, I especially appreciated that the staff communicated with me through my phone, which made everything much easier. The only issue I had was with the locker. They frequently did not work properly and I hope they can be repaired as soon as possible instead of taking several business days.

I loved how safe I felt the whole time, the bed was also really comfortable and lovely design. A bit of a tight space to share but worth the location and comfort.

Fabulous place to stay. Clean, comfortable with incredibly helpful and friendly staff. Especially Max. Beds are comfortable and the bathroom is spotless. Really easy to reach central Amsterdam only 4 stops by tram which is outside the Bee Hostel. I would definitely stay there again

amazing hostel, worth the money

i think this was the best hostel i stayed in europe. it's super clean and organized, the staff is friendly and helpful, the area is safe and has great access to public transportation. the only downsides are the lack of a shared kitchen (you'll have to eat out everyday) and the location being a bit far from the central area of the city. you'll spend a lot of time inside public transportation.

Clean hostel the woman only dorm felt safe with lockers provided that lock , a main door that locks to the dorms with restrooms in their to use . Right around corner is metro and bus stop and easy to get back to airport or walk to other parts of the city . The hostels property is smaller than some with not a lot of hang out space but ok plus side this seemed to keep the noise outside down
