Love this hostel! It was one of the workers birthday and we all celebrated. It was so fun to make small talk with people as well. The bar can be chaos but if you need time to chill without so many people you can walk down stairs to the happy room (living room) and there is a full kitchen aswell. If I ever get a chance to come back to amsterdam i'm definitely spending a few nights here!

Great location downtown Amsterdam although I think I like the location of the uptown one more. There is an awesome smoking room but there is not enough space for all the guests so I wish this were bigger.
