“Outstanding Hostel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 October 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Shelter Jordan is an outstanding place to stay. It's kept very clean, the staff are friendly and helpful and it's quiet. The linen was clean, the room is cleaned every day as are the common areas including toilets and showers. While it is a hostel they segregate the sexes. The women are on the 2nd floor and the men on the third. The hostel was very quiet while I was there.

There was plenty of hot water in the morning as well.
While a bit out of the way - a 15-20 minute walk from the rail station it's very close to the bus station - maybe 5 minutes and the walk is very scenic. The immediate neighborhood has many restaurants and markets with a wide selection to chose from pizza to steak.

Room Tip: I prefer a room with just a few beds but I really don't think it makes a difference.

“Great service people!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 October 2011

We didn't stay here. Our hotel room was given away and we came here in search of a place to stay but they had no vacancy.

Nevertheless, the two guys at the counter were very helpful. They looked up places for us on the internet, got phone numbers for us, and were just awesome in our little emergency of being "bed-less" at 8pm on a sat night in amsterdam with all our luggage.

So awesome! A big thankyou to those guys!
