Vandrarhem i Haarlem

“The Elephant Hostel in Amsterdam is overall a good hostel that is suitable for both shorter and slightly longer stays. The standard is good and it generally feels clean and well-maintained. The staff is nice, helpful and contributes to a positive atmosphere, which makes the stay smooth and pleasant. At the same time, there are some improvements that would enhance the experience even further. It would be desirable for the staff to remind guests at check-in more clearly that it should be quiet...

“While towels were replace everyday in the bathroom, the shower stalls smelled bad and were not clean with locks broken and soap missing. The capsule beds themselves were quite okay. The challenging part trying to sleep when there’s a bar on the ground floor playing loud music with a strong base and other guests making a lot of noise and playing music until late evening. ”

“Frukosten var inte alls bra, värsta som jag var med.”

“Good”

“Nice personal, OK location, clean sheets, 24/7 open, fair price for 20€ something.”

“not used”

“So if you're into the museums around Museumplein the location is great. There are lots of trams passing by as well so it's easy to get around. Google Maps + GVB 24h pass does the trick for getting anywhere in Amsterdam. So apart from the location the hostel is what you pay for. It's ranked amongst the cheapest and it's pretty basic. I had stayed here 3 years ago and it was basically identical. Hotel receptionist (perhaps owner?) was very nice to me and friendly even if not all hostel guests...
