Worst Hostel Ever

I have traveled to over 60 countries and frequently stay in hotels and hostels, and I have to say that this was my absolute worst experience that I can remember. The hostel itself is dark and cramped. The maze of dark hallways is a dangerous fire hazard and I am surprised that it passes code. I had a very negative experience with the management double charging me, as well. They changed their justification/story a few times, but the one that they settled on was not plausible, and even if true, was not a proper justification to keep my money. It was the kind of customer service experience that sadly is somewhat common in the Netherlands; way more focus on trying to prove they are "right" than putting the customer first. They also have a mold or fungus problem in their shower as I developed some kind of minor rash. I normally love a good hostel; I stayed at King Kool one night of my visit and they were amazing: better location, courteous staff and location, way more spacious, and better amenities. In short, do not stay here, stay at King Kool.

The hostel was very clean, including the toilets and bathrooms. The bathrooms were also spacious. However, the bedrooms were quite cramped. It's impossible to sit up in bed because of the low headroom.

Terrible experience. Never again.

The hosts allowed drunken guest keep the rest awake till 5 a.m., with someone escorted away by the police and two wasted girls squealing till morning in the rest area. They called it a "party". No respect for other guests who paid for the hostel to get some rest. It is quite probable that the hosts will wash their hands off you if other guests make you feel uncomfortable or insecure. Another proof of lack of consideration is the size of the rooms - extremely small with no windows. You don't see the daylight at all. No space to put your belongings. Everything is arranged in a way to squeeze as much money of the pitiably small space as possible. The location is good, but you can find a much better hostel not far from this one, and the experience is radically different. Never again.

Excellent value for money.

This hostel was excellent value for money. I simply needed a place to sleep while I visited den haag. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. I was shown the facilities by staff and shown how to access the building after hrs. I had no issues with my stay. I deliberately left my bed looking messy so any new comers would know it was taken but I have stayed at other hostels where the beds are numbered and allocated to people so they know which bed to use. A friend came back to find someone in his bed. A genuine mistake as he left his neat and tidy.

Heel basic hostel. Voelt niet onhygiënisch maar wel muf en bedompt. Nodig niet uit tot ontmoeten van medereizigers. Deur van de nachtuitgang valt zo hard dicht dat dit in meerdere kamers ‘s nachts te horen is. Verder gewoon een beetje rommelig; geen zeep in de dispensers, loshangende lichtknopjes, geen ramen in de kamers. Het is goedkoop, dat is een voordeel, maar verwacht er verder niet teveel van.

When I got back to the hostel at night yhetr was somebody else sleeping in my bed. My towel also got stolen The place is unstaffed for many hours and the problem could not be resolved The showers look moldy and poorly maintained. There was only 1 working tap. Lots of urine splashed over and around toilets It is cheap with a nice location, but don't count on good quality sleep with poor matras and noisy roommates who also put on/off the lights all night
