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.

Simon Austria

I really liked the location since it was close to walk around some wonderful sightseeing places, shops, restaurants, cafes, and public transport. The bed was very comfortable. The staff and customer service were excellent.

Yee Ireland

-I arrived in the early morning but staff was really kind for conversation and take care my luggages -the room with shower and bathroom, they were really clean and strong water for shower -big kitchen and free coffee

Jhihjyun Taiwan

Very good place, good and clean rooms, fine beds, bathroom is private for the room and is quite good to use, towels come included in the price. Good heating. Location is good, although that it is not next to major stations or the easiest to find places, but is still close to some important links and is in the center on a busy street. Friendly guy at the check-in. The price is good. I liked my stay and the place a lot. It can be chosen among hostels.
