Generator Amsterdam
Mauritskade 57, Oost, 1092 AD Amsterdam, Netherlands – Great location - show map
The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. I am happy I booked a hostel with AC in the rooms as I went during a heat wave. The common rooms are very well kept and super inviting and always buzzing with people. In general the price per bed was cheaper than hostels at more central localizations. The staff was very helpful and accommodating.
