Very friendly helpful staff. Party Street but the windows have shutters that close out the noise. Easy access to trains.

Sharon Netherlands

Friendly staff, delicious croissants, cool interior

Anastasiia Poland

The hostel had their own cafe and there was beautiful sitting area. The street where hostel was located is known for it's liveliness. There was a pub next to the hostel. The rooms were not big but good enough. The bed were comfy. The staff was polite and helpful.

Vikas India

The receptionist were super nice and would help you with everything you need. You would be always greeted with the wide smile and fresh cup of coffee or tea. They had a nice and big kitchen where you could make whatever you want (one day we even got the croissants for free). The facilities were clean, and they even offered towels during the stay.

Milica Czech Republic

The staff were really friendly and helpful. The room was clean and nice.

Khan Germany

The staff is the best! Very helpfull! Bed's so comfy... Free coffee in the morning closes the deal :D

Marta Poland

Location is nice, because there are restaurants and bars nearby. Also just a few minutes walk from the metro station. Close to the main attractions in Rotterdam. Room was nice, and shower was nice.

Seán Netherlands

Chic and modern interior, friendly staff (especially the girl that works by the bar, she has all my praise!), linen and towel were included, and socket and a personal light for each bed. Place is clean, the shower and toilet are separated so that was so convenient.
