Most staff didn't feel approachable. Didn't really have that "hostel" feel, no sense of community and nobody really interacts with each other. Not enough secure storage space. Fairly cheap and perfect location, but lots of hidden fees. Not enough communal space.

There was a concert happening right outside the window all night. Other than that, positive experience.

The actual payment was 82. Euro's, bit they charged us 101.90 and 10 euro for key. It's worthless price

If you run out of time, and you have to find a place to stay immediately, look no further than Hostel Orfeo. They are the most affordable place in the whole of Amsterdam. They are also quite down-to-earth and they will help you however they can.

The room is little bit cold and 1 light in our room is broken. The worst thing is the bad sound insulation which wakes you up in the night...Others are good!

this was a GREAT location right between downtown and the park, with lots of restaurants close by. we walked to all of the tourists sites and we were fine w/o the metro. also there was good coffeeshops on the canal right around the corner. definitely recommend.

It was not clean enough, smells so bad. Brushes or mops to clean the room were left in the bathroom.  Staff was not kind, only it's a place to sleep.

One of the worst rooms ive got in all trips I have made before (4 ppl shared bathrrom for 4 rooms of 4 ppl) ! The room is completely small, like an corridor! The bathroom is disgusting! Besides that, they were smelling shit, and the shower was also ridiculous, they cant even spout water properly!

The only good thing was that It was well localized and they've an basic breakfast!

Such a great place! Been here twice now, and so happy we ended up here. The toilet smelled awful but apart from that we had a great time - the position couldn't be better, fantastic, cheap restaurants and bars and the cinema very close by, plus the museums only a stone's throw!

Bedroom was fine (though we could have done with a ladder to the top bunk!), linen all very clean, towel hire a definite plus. Toilet was a bit sketchy but the shower was good! The location is fantastic, absolutely great, and we'll be returning happily next week!

VERY RECOMMENDABLE!

It's situated in the restaurant and bar quarter of the city, which is very suitable. The common room/breakfast room is really nice and there are two computers with free internet. The rooms are nice and clean and some open to the fire escape ladder which is kind of a balcony =) Bedding is included; there's 5 rooms and one toilet and one shower per floor, which actually works out quite fine. Only the shower on our floor didn't really work. So in general i can really recommend the hostel, only the shower is not quite suited for washing your hair...

The hotel lies perfectly central in Leidseplein which is the area to go out and have fun. There are a lot of restaurants very close and you can find italian food for cheap prices. The hotel could be a bit cleaner but it s absolutly ok and the owner is super friendly and always open for all questions. Recommendable!
