great location (next to cheese market), clean and comfortable. we had a separate room, that was clean and comfortable. great value
PolandThe hostel itself is amazing, One of the best hostel visited in my whole life. I'll be back when the situation will be better (Covid_19)
NetherlandsExcellent location, helpful staff, friendly, nice atmosphere, clean everything and everywhere. Restaurants, musea. performances all available/
NetherlandsOur hotel room was directly beside the canal in a converted warehouse. Although small, the room was very well designed with a glass door opening to the outside and good sized window. The breakfast was quite complete and well presented. The staff was very accommodating in storing our bicycle and in replacing a non-functioning reading lamp immediately. The location is right in the heart of historic Alkmaar.
United States of AmericaHelpful staff in giving me an extra pillow for my broken arm. Also picked a nicer room on our second stay. Loved the location— we could just park the car in the garage and travel around town by foot or train.
United States of AmericaGreat place, interesting hostel. Clean bathrooms, cool common area, very friendly staff at the front, great access to Alkmaar village and about 10 min walk to train stop. Had a great time!
United States of AmericaI love it! The bedroom was very clean and the bathroom too. The staffs were friendly kindly and helpful! We had a problem with the time to get to the hotel. We called the hotel and they were very nice and let us do the check-in after the deadline.
PortugalNice staff, well organized Hostel, good location, good price!
