It was very noisy in the dormitor with a group of women which kept talking and preparing for sleep for 1 hour. They had so much luggage that the room was sprt of blocked.

Nice central location in the city, easy check in and out process, comfortable beds with decent privacy for a dorm, and good size lockers. I appreciated being able to store my stuff in the lobby area before and after check in/out too.

I’m truly grateful for the reception staff — they were incredibly kind and helpful. I lost my beanie this morning, and even after I had already checked out, they were willing to review the security footage for me and even allowed me to return to my room to search for it again. In the end, I managed to find it, which was such a relief in this kind of weather. Moreover, there is free WiFi, and they also provide towels for showering. Definitely recommended!

Très bon rapport qualité prix. Excellent positionnement géographique à 5 min de la gare, très propre et moderne ! clé digitale sur téléphone c'est cool ça, pas moyen de la perdre Le seul bémol que je tiens à souligner, c'est le petit dej qui peut etre améliorer selon moi, pour environs 7€ on a un sac en carton, avec une pomme, yaourt granola, morceau de pain, deux tranches de fromage, un jus d'orange industriel, café et chocolat à volonté à la machine et c'est tout. je favoris...

I LOVED my stay here. Just a few steps away from Rotterdam Centraal, it made getting around the Netherlands or even international day trips very easy. The staff are lovely, the room had one of the comfiest beds I’ve ever slept in, privacy was perfect… most importantly for me, the bathroom was massive and very clean. I originally had to get a booking for a mixed dorm due to availability but they moved me to a female only one beforehand without me even needing to ask. Wonderful hostel. 10/10

I really enjoyed my stay at Sparks. It is clean, comfortable, and the vibe is warm and a good mix of different people/genders. I also loved the kitchen, which is quite big and well maintained. The lockers fit two cabin bags easily. The location near the station was also perfect. One recommendation: add curtains to all beds! When I moved to a bed with a curtain on my last night (only one in the room), it really made a difference in having privacy while I sleep.

El mejor hostal en el que me he quedado, limpias y cómodas habitaciones, muy privadas, te dan tu toalla y regalan café, tiene aire acondicionado y está súper céntrico

Located right near the central train station. Had a really good kitchen and common space. Used your phone as a mobile key which was cool. Stairs are very dutch, steep and small so be careful, elevator you have to hold down the button for your level, very slow, loud and a bit scary. With the showers, the water went everywhere and there was no place to put down your clothes, sinks got clogged up easily. Provided a free towel which was nice. Also had luggage storage and lockers in the room.

I stayed here with a friend group of 10. The rooms were nice & clean, a bit small I’d say, but worked just fine! The personnel was super friendly, gave us some tips & mist see’s and were always open for a conversation. Since I travelled with a group I have no idea how the general atmosphere was, we didnt spend much time in the hostel. The main area, kitchen etc however, was really nice! Also top location!! Overall, we had a great stay!

Mi noche en este hostel fue espectacular. Lindas instalaciones, camas en dormitorio que se sentían de hotel por la privacidad, todo limpio y acogedor. Enchufes y espacio para guardar cosas en las literas, lockers en la habitación (lleva tu candado), toallas limpias, temperatura agradable (soy latina y había grados negativos afuera lo cual me preocupaba un poco) y cocinita simple con café y te gratis
