Phenomenal staff - esp Emily
Very clean
Great lobby/lounge area
One of the best hostels you can find. Clean, well maintained, safe. Also good location near restaurants, groceries, transportation. I return here every time.
The staff was absolutely amazing. It is my first time sleeping in a hostel. I hope that everyone from here on end are as fantastic as the hostel in Amsterdam.
Shops within your reach. Bee Hostel easy to locate. Friendly Staff, clean room/bed. Transportations are accessible. Would love to come back. Well recommended. Amsterdam is beautiful

Disliked: Cleanliness
They need to clean the toilets and showers more often.
Had a great stay at this hotel! Solo traveler just staying for few days - had everything I needed. Appreciated the curtains on the bunk bed so I could get some rest. Good place to explore from too!
I loved how safe I felt the whole time, the bed was also really comfortable and lovely design. A bit of a tight space to share but worth the location and comfort.
