This hostel had the coolest vibe of any hostel I´ve ever been to! I think the only thing I didn´t like about it were the stairs one had to climb to get to ones room. But other then that, it was awesome! The Bar downstairs made it really easy to meet people, which for a person traveling solo is very... More

For value for money, you can't really beat this place - Especially since my friend had a discount card that he got from a sister hostel in Belgium. Its website gives a pretty accurate depiction of the hostel, a vibrant, atmospheric place where you have come to experience the city and have fun. Definitely a place for backpackers or students...

read great reviews about this place and decided to stay here. The rooms were pretty packed and they have queen size bunk beds, which is weird coz 2 people have to share a bed.... The stairs were super narrow and only person could use them at a time. After one night, they made us shift to another room for some... More

Went to Amsterdam and decided to take flying pig uptown due to its great location and great price. But dont be fooled by the prices and good reviews as the condition expected were so far off, i could only describe it as hell holes. Firstly is the kitchen of this hostel which is too small to accommodate hundreds of people... More

I went with a group of 9. We booked at least 3 months in advance, and all in the same room. When we arrived it took about 30 mins to even be seen by someone at reception. Then we were told we would not be in the same room and would have to split up into 3 groups. The staff... More

I had a terrible experience with this hostel and will never recommend to anyone. My reservation was made more that 45 days before the trip and by the time I arrive at the hostel around 10PM I'm informed that my reservation was cancelled by mistake and they'd have no room for me at that night. They could just offer me... More

We are not the biggest party people, so a hostel in Amsterdam was probably not the best choice. In saying that, the staff were good; friendly and happy to help. Our shower leaked water which made it very slippery. Also, our window didn't lock or even shut properly. We had no clean towels when we arrived (although we did get... More

First let me say that I stayed the first half of the week at Bob's Youth Hostel so this place was a palace compared. But, its expensive. I realized later that I could have probably stayed at a small hotel for 15 euros more and had my own room. And the location isn't great...quite a walk from dam square. The... More

The Flying Pig Uptown is a great hostel. Free breakfast (can get a little crowded of a morning), clean rooms, and cheapish bar. The majority of the staff were very friendly. Any problems we had were sorted out very quickly! The hostel is quite a walk from the main restaurants and attractions, and a decent walk to the Red Light... More
