I stayed at Janson Hotel with 4 other friends so we booked the 5person dorm. I must say, such a room was PERFECT for what we needed (we had dreaded splitting up into 2 smaller rooms). The room was clean, basic and became a little home for 5 20 year old guys for a week. It was my first trip... More

disregard any pretentious reviews posted about the janson hostel. Firstly i must state this hostel is for backpackers or persons looking for an affordable stay in amsterdam ( an expensive city ). The hostel itself is easilly acessable by tram or bus and a taxi ride from dam square costs 25euros. the tram journey to the centre of amsterdam passes... More

We booked this hostel online for 3 nights. We paid for a 4 bed room (There were 3 of us girls). When we arrived we had to pay them in cash and they then informed us that they had no room for us and then sent us off to a random hostel down the street. We arrived at the other... More

Absolute worst hostel ever. They stole my money. After my friends and I arrived there they moved us to another hostel and at that hostel they gave us a room of 10 people rather than 4. Because of this last minute switch my friends and I, three girls, did not feel comfortable staying there with 7 guys. The person at... More

Honestly i found this place quite alright. Price was good and people working there do their best. They are renovating the place so i do not agree at all with people that want to kill their management . Let's them give the time to improve it at least. Anyway i wish you luck. More

Staff tried to overcharge us. No lockers to leave valuables in. Rooms tiny- beds crammed in so you couldn't move between them. Everyone had to sit on beds to let someone out or to bathroom (which had no lock). Took us hours to get ready in the mornings as only 1 person could dry their hair at a time as... More

A bit of a mess to be honest. The place is being renovated but not to a good standard from what I can see. The room was hot and cramped and not clean. Also the bathroom was grim. The staff were helpful though. Breakfast was poor and I didn't feel like eating really as the room was so dirty, and... More

come on girls, just because you are used to perfect rooms at home you're not able to give an positive review. I've just been to Amsterdam with some friends of mine and it was not soo bad. Ok, the room is maybe small (what makes it even more snugly). And ok, they have some technical problems due to renovations, but... More

This is by far the worst place I've ever had the nightmare of staying in. The operator blackmailed me for extra money for a room the rest of my roomates paid 11 euros a night for -- he demanded I pay 30 euros a night more the second day I was there! He told me this the next morning after... More
