| Comments: Decent camping spot outside of Amsterdam, about 30mins or so on the bikes you can rent, and 45mins on a bus right outside the campground. A good option if you have a car, or are staying for awhile. |

| Comments: The staff were quite rude and unfriendly and i would not recommend the hostel for anyone who is on a short break. There are several hidden costs including linen, heating, showers which in effect makes the hostel a lot more expensive than it seems. In addition, the distance from the city also adds to the expense of the trip. So basically, dont go there, and find something a bit more expensive in the city. |

| Comments: You spend a lot of money on transpertation. There are NO extra\\\'s with this place you pay for everything; tolet paper, showers, Heat(that doesn\\\'t work and if you are there after close(5pm most nights) then you don\\\'t have a chose of heat or not), No sheets, no blankets and you also don\\\'t get a key to your room if you are there after 5pm and so any random can just walk into your room at night. They also have a kitchen for everyone to use but there are rats around it. |

| Comments: it's a lil'bit far from the City, but the bunks are very friendly (and it has heating). travelling at night is pretty complicated, but if the weather is good just rent a bike and you're the king of the roads |

| Comments: this place is the worst place you could ever waste your money on!!! you get no keys and then you get robbed wile you sleep! the owner does not call the cops, instead he tells you the cops are on the way and it will be taken care of...
THAT IS A BOLD FACE LIE!!!!the people I bunked with and I went to make a separate report and the police said the camp never called. the owner is a lier and should be sued for his incompetence and negligence on the part of having a secure business. |

| Comments: We got there at 19.30 - and left again 20.15.
There was only a note on the door at the reception, telling us where to go!!!
There were people in ALL the bunks in there AND on the note on the door with names of people living there, we were NOT included!!! SO we ended up taking a motel instead!!!
There was NO room for us!!!
A very bad experience, so we expect you to return our booking-fee etc, since there wasn\'t room for us there. |

| Comments: The location is the big draw back with this place. Any savings are eaten up by the transport costs and all the other additional costs incurred - from toilet paper (yes, no toilet paper in the toilets!!) to showers. |

| Comments: I have nothing to say about my stay because before we got the chance to check in were thrown out of the area, we arrived at c.a. 1300 hours and we (5 of us) came singing joyfully, exited about the upcoming fotball match (holland-Iceland) and at the moment the owner saw and heard us he desided that we were drunks and violant and he called the cops on us. they did nothing becaus we did nothing wrong. |

| Comments: There are no locks on the doors so it seems quite common for people to just rock up and sleep in vacant beds. Unfortunately this happened to my bed on the first night so i had no where to sleep for a while. Didnt have to pay for that night and the other two nights i stayed were good. |

| Comments: it was very unlucky that when we estimated our arrival for 8 pm at the internet registration it was accepted, and we didn't know that the reception will close at 7pm. For two women it doesn't feel secure to spend a night in a cabin that cannot be closed, and also for this season it was pretty cold for a night without heating. This piece of information would have saved us from the worries and misery of our first night stay :) |

| Comments: I loved the place! After reading the other comments i was a bit nervous, but when I came there it was a great place. They HAD locks on the doors, they also had a little shop, the showers was ok. I dont know what people expekt when they go to a hostel. Its not a hotel. But it was a great place, really. |
