Liked: Good location, right across the street from Van Gogh museum, and tram lines to the centre. Good beds, nice mattresses.

Disliked: No lockers in the rooms, but a small safe per bed was there. The safe did fit a 13" computer though.

Liked: The Van Gogh theme was nice, and the room was small but nicely decorated and very clean.

Disliked: There was usually a long line at the front desk. Also, the hotel and hostel share a lobby, which was perfectly fine for us, but might bother some.

Liked: Easy to get to centre of town on a tram, but nice and far away from noise for sleeping! Beautifully clean and tidy! Really comfy beds and bedding! Friendly staff (some people complained about staff, but if you were polite to them they were polite back! I saw others treating them rudely so no surprise if they were rude back!) Really appreciated that when we needed a lie in in the morning the cleaner cleaned around us quietly and was very respectful

Disliked: Nothing really- only minor problem was that my friends safe wouldn't work, but we shared, and I'm sure if we had bothered to ask it would've been fixed by the lovely staff! Oh and no fault of the hostel, but mixed rooms inevitably have snorers!

Liked: I loved how we had our own bathroom to our room. You had to pay for breakfast but it was worth it- it was much better than your typical hostel breakfast. Towels were provided every day, and beds made every day. It felt more like a hotel in which you shared your room with others in. Highly recommended.

Disliked: Not enough garbage bins in the rooms, only a very small one in the bathroom.
