The location is fantastic and the staff are very kind and helpful!
We had a private room so we didn’t feel unsafe. However the condition of the hostel and the cleanliness of the room could be vastly improved.

A budget option in an emergency situation where prices in town went through the roof and basically just wanted a bed for a few hours - this place was brilliant and exceeded my not high expectations - brilliant budget option.

The location of the hotel was convenient as it was within walking distance from the train station and the centre of Rotterdam. The biggest let down was the weather.

8/10 - would stay again.
Very close to centraal station (about 8 minute walk), plus a major tram line stop directly outside the hotel. Staff is great. There was a small (solvable) issue in my room and the staff fixed it within 10 minutes. Very much a no-frills European hotel room, but it’s clean and safe (security guard on site in the evening)

It was an easy spot to walk to and from the hostel. It gave all the bare essentials needed for my trip in Rotterdam and close enough to multiple forms of transport.

Had a good stay. The room was small but for one person was ok.
Loved the water pressure in the shower.
The breakfast buffet was very good.

Not fancy but a nice play tonstay for a night. They have a bar where you can purchase drinks or food for a very cheap price. Ask for the pooltable. It is in a hidden room. I would go to this place again if I need a 1 night stay in Rotterdam. It is like 10-15 minute walking from the train station

Nice stay
We had an ok night. We stayed on the 5th floor and had a nice view. Cozy with a small terrace.
The room was nice, but the mattresses were very hard and no spring in the bed, so that part was a bit uncomfortable.
The area was nice, and ok distance to most things.
We stayed as a family of 4, and otherwise nothing to complain about

The staff were really friendly. Area is great, just 9 mins walk to Rotterdam Centraal. Tram station is near 1 min maybe. Rooms are clean, but u cant expect luxus. Its a hostel and very cheap. But gud for the price. Only negative there are so many people, if they are drunk its loud outside ur room. Otherwise it was gud.

Really scruffy place. Stayed in A&O hostels before in Germany and we're pretty good. Noisy road outside room had to use ear plugs. My rule is I ask myself the question would I stay here again the answer is no.
