I booked a dorm room with them, and shortly before the check-in date I received an email that 40 and over are not allowed in the dorms. I am 44 and stay in hostels around the world all the time and have never encountered this. It is the same as other forms of discrimination. I lost my deposit and had to pay for the first night because I could not cancel in time for a full refund. Stay somewhere else! Sparks and Ani and Hakieen in Rotterdam are amazing, and only 25 minutes by train from The Hague.

We were skeptical about staying at a hostel at our age (50+) but was pleasantly surprised. We stayed for 9 nights over Dec 2017 and really enjoyed it. Very clean rooms and friendly staff. Also great location. Within walking distance to restaurants, shops, train, tram and bus stations

This place works perfectly for a short stay in the Hague. It is well situated, the staff is nice, there's a well-equiped kitchen and you can rent bikes. The breakfast is not expensive and the rooms are quiet. I recommend it!

Recently stayed here with a group of 6 for a weekend trip to the Hague. Location is very good with a 10-15 minute walk from Den Haag central station and being central to all the shops, bars and restaurants. Check in and check out was a painless process and the staff were incredibly friendly, the bar below for breakfast on the morning and drinks at night were a highlight. Our 6 person bedroom wasn't huge but it's what you can expect from Dutch architecture, it's pretty much the same anywhere you'll stay, but everything was clean and well kept. Overall if you're looking for a clean, central spot to stay in the Hague on a budget, you can't do much better than this.

The person who checked us in was not the friendliest. She spent most of her time talking to someone else behind the bar during check in. Volunteers who were cleaning the hostel were friendly though and willing to have a chat. I agree the stairs where steep but as expected for the Netherlands. No issues. The bathrooms where compact but modern. The showers would not lock though and there was only a curtain which was a bit unnerving. However, they were never busy when I wanted to use them and where nicer than some other hostels I have stayed in. My room was above the kitchen. We could hear no noise from the bar but there was a constant noise from the boiler?/air vents? which was annoying. We could here every word and song played in the kitchen which was fine since sensible people were in the hostel at the time. However, this could be your worst nightmare if loud people are staying. The kitchen was an okay size, but I found that if one group of friends where in there (4-5 people) it was hard for anyone else to squeeze in without it being weird. Overall, not bad. The bathrooms where better than people describe but would have been better with a common area that wasn't the kitchen.…

Great little hostel just off the main shopping street (5/10mins walk from everything in the centre). Comfortable, fresh beds. It was not full when I was there so no issues with the common amenities but it looked like one shower and one toilet between 16, which could have been a pain if it was full. The staff in the bar downstairs were all great and I was lucky enough to be there on one of the live jazz nights, with a great quartet entertaining us (great way to enjoy the free small beer that comes with booking). Would happily return.

I made a booking on booking.com with non-refundable payment in advance. Upon check-in was informed they could not accept me as I'm over 40 (42). This was not mentioned before payment but evidently mentioned in small print in confirmation email sent AFTER payment. They said they could put me in single room for extra 50 euro. I said just give me refund. They refused. This is a total scam way of doing business.The age limit was not mentioned before payment on booking.com. They should have offered free upgrade. I have requested special consideration for refund which they must surely honour.

This hostel is very nice. Once we arrived we got a very warm welcoming. We were first in a 6 bed dorm; it was small but had enough space (storage facilities, as well as lockers, were made available). Unfortunately, in our dorm there was one person that was bad smelling, after talking to the staff about the problem and a short waiting, they gave us an upgrade to a 4 bed dorm for free. They wanted their guest to feel well at the hostel, which is really nice. The facilities (kitchen, shower, toilet) were really good as well as the location: many bars, shops, restaurants close by. Everything could be reached by walking which is really nice for a city trip. In the bar downstairs there was always a great atmosphere and you could meet many people staying in the hostel. The prices were fair and you got a welcoming beer. Also, you could hear the noise in the room but it wasn't too loud so it was not a big problem! Overall, this hostel is a very nice place to stay if you go on a city trip to The Hague (either alone or with friends). I would always go there again!…

Great location, easy to get everywhere either by walk, or tram ( stops right across at Grotte station, which is only two stops from Central Station ( 5 min ). Their rental bikes are also super cool and good deal, we took those to go to the beach instead of the tram, lot more fun and nice rides through the parks. Hotel staff super friendly and helpful, nice little bar, good ambiance, We stayed in the private room on top floor, nice size room, well worth it and high enough from the bar that you don't hear the music. Thank you, will definitely come back again!
