Netherlands COUPLE 18-24 Mar 14, 2026 Atm 60%

Nice clean hostel. When i came in at 14:00 i was not allowed to use the bathroom because they were cleaning. I had a long trip and the hostel is in a flat so that was very unfriendly. I had to walk to the metro station to use a bathroom.

Had a great stay. The staff went above and beyond to take care of us. Great location just a short walk from the metro, secure building. Loved being on tenth floor with the views of the city. Spacious and clean bathrooms, hot showers with strong water pressure. Overall very clean. Rooms were nice too.

A decent place to rest your head and in an ok location. Many of the showers and toilets were locked/not in use when we were there. Strange rules for before check in, I wouldn’t stay here after a long journey.

They didn’t let me use the bathroom before check-in and the hostel only accepts cash. The staff was quite rude. The bed was too short for me (I’m 171 cm) and there’s basically no social atmosphere – mostly locals, not backpackers. To get to the bathroom you have to cross the common area/reception, which is a bit awkward. The blanket was comfortable, but that’s about the only positive thing. I would book something closer to the Dome of Light next time, since most hostels are located aro...

ok place to stay, although as other reviews have mentioned, its a bit rule bound. Set times to use washing machines strictly adhered to (whether they are available or not). Maybe the staff are just demoralised and can't be bothered and who can blame them !

Had an amazing time staying here! Very clean and well looked after. The staff is super friendly and helpful. The location is great (you only walk 3 minutes to the train station! I would recommend the Fo Guang Shan museum, it is a mesmerizing place you don’t want to miss! Thanks for having me ! :)

Great place! Didn’t love how you had to walk through the common area to use the bathroom but other than that it was good

Wir hatten eine schöne Zeit. und konnten nach dem Auschecken noch unser Gepäck dort lassen und einen entspannten Tag in der Stadt verbringen. Beim Gepäck abholen durften wir jedoch das Klo nicht noch mal benutzen

The hostel is really nice. The showers and beds are nice. I love that they offer ice tea for free. But it’s annoying that the bathrooms are fare from the rooms. The showers are really good and I love that they have a bathroom only for girls. Furthermore, we found a big bug in the bed, but the staff took care of it and assigned my friend a new bed. The staff was really sweet.

The Hostel was great and staff friendly but we were very disappointed that we weren't allowed to use the facilities after checkout (even the toilet). We've stayed in 100s of hostels around the world and have never been told that you can't use the bathroom after check out. Unfortunately a total deal breaker and won't be back.

Not very social. Staff is quite strict in the application of the rules. There is a very large common area however, with a free soft drinks dispenser (+ kitchen). Ok pick overall speaking.

Great hostel, very clean, beds are comfortable and spacious. The bathroom/shower areas are also clean and work well. The location is good, right next to subway station and walking distance to Love River. Can bike to other famous Kaohsiung spots from the hostel as well. Overall, enjoyed my stay and would stay again!
