Indonesia
I’ve been staying at the Train Lodge Amsterdam multiple times and every time it was awesome. Aside from having the experience to stay on a real train on a real rail, the staff were always nice and it was always clean. Even though the location is not in the central area, you can easily find a tram stop just steps away which can get you to the central in just minutes. Also, the area is not that touristic in my opinion so you tend to see more locals. All in all, I recommend this place to everyone visiting Amsterdam and I will definitely stay here again.

Wonderful hostel! Staff is very open and friendly, the rooms are clean, felt completely safe there. It’s kinda far from the city center however hostel is located very close to the metro station so it is really not a big deal. A lot of common spaces where you can chill in the evening and meet new people. Great place for great price. If I’ll ever come back to Amsterdam, then without a doubt I will stay there :)

I feel like I have my own space, little privacy in my bed because of the curtain. Though I stay in mixed dormitories at other places, mostly depend on what I get with my budget, I feel safer and more comfortable in women only hostel. I also like the large common area space linked to the shared kitchen and it’s all on the ground floor, so everything is close to one another with the garden at the back for some fresh air, bicycles and drying clothes. The staff was nice too, they are willing to help.

We had such a lovely time at Bunk. The hotel is amazing and so are the staff. We repeatedly enjoyed delicious breakfast every morning whilst playing board games. The bunk beds brought out the child in us whilst providing all the comfort one could wish for. Was great for meeting people too and the hotel was also in such a great location. Would stay again without a doubt.

The property was in a great location. Very near to a Metro station, with quick & easy links to the City Centre. The staff were super friendly and attentive, there was always someone around which made things feel very safe. I felt very safe & link my property was secure in general. The other guests were really friendly & the hostel definitely allowed for people to be both sociable or a bit quieter. Bathroom & kitchen facilities were always clean.

This was my first experience in a hostel and I would stay here again in the future. Great location in a beautiful area of Amsterdam far from the chaos but still central and close to great cafes and sites. The hostel has very relaxing vibes and overall it was very quiet at night. It was also very clean and comfortable and felt very safe. I liked having the locker close to my bed. Bed was comfortable and I liked having the blackout curtain for privacy. The staff is also helpful and friendly

The personnel were super cool and helpful. The hostel is pretty close to markets and public transport. The location was not nearly as bad as descibed in some internet forums. There was not a moment when we felt unsafe even during out nightouts. We had certain hesitations when choosing a female-only hostel (what about NBs? etc.), but It was the cheapest option we had and we do not regret it. Also getting rid of the male-gaze was a plus.
