Would definitely go again

The price was the lowest in terms of the location, that is why we have chosen to stay there. The beds are as of these pads used in PE lessons. So It is up to you, it was not amazingly comfortable. We had a problem with the noise made by a group staying in the same floor as us, and when we went downstairs to complain they were suuuuuper helpfull. Amazing staff. The service was amazing as well at breakfast, everyone was so helpfull. Thank you so much.

Great value for money; very pleasant staff, especially on reception, who went above and beyond; good breakfast. Some good middle eastern restaurants just around the corner. Only negative, currently, is that the area around the hostel is being redeveloped.

When you check in they give you the linen, blanket and pillow case. You have to make your own bed and strip it in the morning to bring down to laundry container. No towel, you have to pay $2 if you want one. Daily rate is too high when you have to make your own bed and no towel provided. Will not stay in this place again.

Stayed in "private family room" which was basic but comfortable and clean. Hostel common areas were spacious and clean. Hostel was quiet. Breakfast was excellent. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Area around hostel is a bit sketchy, but not bad.

Basic hostal with basic accomodations, for being a first timer in a european hostal, it was a little shocking to get your own sheets for example..location was good, close to a metro station and 20 minutes walk from the city centre

’ai séjourné dans cette auberge pendant deux jours. La première nuit, j’étais dans la chambre 410, qui était séparée de la chambre voisine uniquement par une porte coulissante. L’isolation phonique était inexistante, ce qui me semble être un sérieux problème. Il semble qu’une seule grande chambre ait été délibérément divisée en deux pour être louée séparément, ce qui n’est pas acceptable. J’ai changé de chambre par la suite, mais je souhaite tout de même signaler ce problème.

Las duchas son un poco incómodas y no están muy bien diseñadas, ya que el agua se sale por todos lados. Pero en general bien.

Petit séjour

J'ai pris une chambre pour 4 personnes, pour une nuit. L hostel Van gogh n'est pas loin du métro (6 minutes de marche)et du centre-ville ville 15 minutes. La chambre est assez spacieuse, La salle de bains est spacieuse ( adapté au personne a mobilité réduite) il y'a dans l'hôtel un espace pour travailler, micro-ondes....point negatives : juste le sol un peu ancien avec des taches noires et un peu mal isolé
