This place is nothing to write home about or anything, but if you literally want be in the middle of the Red Light District, this is the place. You look out the window, and all you see are red lights. But just remember, if you can see out, people can see in. I felt a little bit like I was... More

Whilst the overall standard of the room was acceptable for the price apart from a faulty shower, we had an issue with security. After checking out we realised we had left our iPod and docking station in the room. We returned Immediately to pick it back up. The room had been cleaned but no other guests had arrived. The iPod...

I stayed here for a week in late July 2012, and let my say that it was a treat. The TV and free WiFi kept me occupied (so much so that I forgot to go to the Van Gogh museum!), and there were power sockets at every bunk. Those bunks were so comfortable I slept for 12+ hours every night... More

Nice hostel with good location. I spend one week in there last September and had a great time. Friendly staff, good breakfast and ofcourse nice people all over the world. Why not 5 stars? Shower and drain was not working properly.

Other friends were in a larger 6 bed dorm which was a bit nicer. Decor kinda funky but basic, bed uncomfortable and... More

Heart of Amsterdam is a clean, comfortable hostel. Nothing fancy or luxurious, but it is comfortable and affordable and in a great location. I stayed here with a group of 7 other friends for 3 nights (we're all American study abroad students). Our room was very clean, we had nice bunk-beds (each with its own electronically-keyed locker), a very clean... More
