オランダ南ホラント州のホステル

This place is both good and bad. Good - 1) has a cafe in front which served really good coffee and food. Food was vegan - the vegan hamburger was excellent and the coffee great. Decent beer and wine selection and the cafe staff (who also check people in and out of hostel) were very friendly and efficient and make a great cup of coffee! 2) laundramat very close by; 3) cafe has bands/musicians some nights and were OK; 4) cafe serves as a lounge area and has games for people to play and hang out; 5) location was great - a metro station is just outside the back door and trams pass by every few minutes; 6) price is very good per bed; 7) other fellow guests were pretty quiet. Bad - 1) Room was dirty - floor looked like it hadn't been cleaned or swept in a long time - especially under the bed. Lots of dust, dirt, etc. under the bed. When we checked in a lone dirty sock was on the floor near my bed. Was told by another guest it had been there for days. I stayed there 5 days and it was still on the floor when I left. Dropped my book under the bed and it was covered in dust when I retrieved it. The walls really need a paint job. Just felt grimy staying there; 2) Several bathroom fixtures did not work. There is a room for toilets - the sink to wash hands did not work so you had to go to the shower room to wash hands. There were three sinks in the shower room, but one of those also did not work - not a great situation when several people are trying to brush teeth and wash hands, put on makeup, do their hair, etc. 3) The cafe out front is open to the public and the only bathroom for those customers is the same one that the hostel guests use. With the toilet sink not working, that means a lot of people coming and going to use the sink available in the shower room. Really made me uncomfortable taking showers in the evenings with all the people coming and going into that room. 4) one of the showers was used several times to store equipment, making it unavailable for use. 5) We stayed in one of the first rooms in the hallway coming from the cafe - all the food smells and noise of the cafe permeate into the room. 6) loved that bands play in the front room on some nights, but they were EXTREMELY loud and played till around 11:45p so if you stay in that room, be prepared to not sleep before midnight. 7) loved that there was a cafe that served coffee and breakfast - but it didn't open until midmorning in April so not really useful for morning coffee - you'll have to search out a place a distance away - nothing really open at that time in the near vacinity so got used to taking the metro every morning to get coffee on the way to sightseeing. 8) there were lockers in the rooms, but the one I was using was broken so there was no way to close it or lock it; 9) one of the staff evidently had one of the beds in the room permanently which felt a little weird. The rules stated no food in the rooms, but this rule evidently didn't apply to him. I think i

My oldest child and I were viewing a university in the Netherlands. So we stayed for 3 nights. We were a bit worried about safety and noise due to us being solo travellers etc but we had no need to be. We were up on the top floor so far from the street. We never felt unsafe. Shower was very good. Staff extremely nice. No concerns about safety. They had a washer dryer which was very handy. We went to the music night they had and it was very nice. We got breakfast one of the days and we found it good value. Place was clean. Hair dryers weren’t working sadly. But other than that, no other issues.

The guy working there tonight needs an attitude check. He seems to think he's King Kool himself. I came in late looking to book a room, and they had availability. He said it was past their check-in time but offered to sell me a private. That sounded good, and I asked if they had any in-person discounts. Pretty standard thing to ask for, and I asked for it politely. He went on about how he was making an exception for the late checkout and told me he could give me a ”discount” of X. Well it turns out I had already seen the room selling for less than X on Hostelworld, so I told him I'd like to book it online (once again, politely). Well King Kool felt threatened by that, I guess. I have no idea what he was thinking, because he then told me we ”couldn't come to an agreement” and went on about how he was going out of his way for me... and told me to leave and go to the Ibis! Maybe he didn't like to be exposed for lying about a ”discount.” Dear management: when a customer offers to take a room you're not going to sell tonight, who is doing whom a favor here? Glad I didn't give King Kool any business.

もともとこれはかなり良かった。朝食は豊富で、持ち帰ることができました。それはお金の価値がありましたが、部屋は通りに面していて、交通は非常に騒々しかったです。最も耐え難いのはシャワーでした。キュービクルは小さすぎて向きを変えることができませんでした。写真上の写真もシャワーを浴びる価値がありますか？ ！水の霧雨はまだ高いです、そしてそれは体を濡らすために壁の反射に依存します。これはお風呂と見なすことができますか？
