Everything was spotless clean; very friendly and welcoming staff; the most privacy you can have while staying at a hostel, really. Lockers on the floor.

Family of 6 in a 7 bunk room. I wasn’t sure a hostel would be ok for a family (61, 68, 40, 41 and two 14 year olds), but I was wrong. We loved it. Clean bedding provided. Comfy beds with own light and power point. Close to tram and trains and walking distance to restaurants, bakeries and bike rental. Large dining and lounging area. Let us house our bags before and after check in and check out. Music playing was unreal. Kids enjoyed fusbal. Free water to fill up water bottles.

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.

Great location and nice atmosphere. Really a youth hostel, but clean and comfortable. Staff was friendly and helpful :)
SabineYoung couple -
Avg. price/night: $18
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.
