Amsterdam Hostel Orfeo

Mediocre Experience

The hostel is close to come cool restaurants and bars that are a little away from the main downtown/red light area, so I would definitely suggest checking those out. The free breakfast was cool, though it is only bread, jam, coffee, and tea. Staff was friendly.

I was woken up at 4am by a group of travelers who apparently thought they had booked the entire room for themselves. They were not happy that I was sleeping in their room and I ended up leaving. luckily, there was another bed available in a different room and the guy at reception was nice about the situation. From the other reviews I have read, this doesn't seem to be an uncommon occurrence. The rooms do not have many outlets, maybe 2 max, and they are not near the beds at all. there are also no lights aside from the main overhead lights. There aren't any lockers in the room either, though there is a safe at the reception where you can keep things. The 8 person rooms seem to all share one bathroom and shower per floor, so you might have to wait a while for the shower. The first bed I slept in was not very comfortable, but the second one was better.

The staff was very helpful, and the breakfast was very nice.

My room wasn't very clean, it had a terrible smell.

excellent location . loads of restaurants and bars close . staff very nice

was a budget price hotel could do with a lot of tlc though but the location made up for that tho

The hotel has good palace. Shared toilets was clean. Hotel staff was friendly.

The rooms are very small and dirty. Breakfast was very poor.
