I stayed at Jorplace Beach Hostel last week (December 2011) - to be fair it probably isn't the best time to stay near the beach, but it's one of the few hostels in The Hague.

The hostel was alright. It includes breakfast which is actually pretty good for a hostel (meats along with bread, cereal, tea, coffee, etc).

The problem I had with the hostel was the triple bunks. I originally booked a bed in a four person dorm, but was told on arrival they no longer do these so she gave me a slightly cheaper rate and threw me into a 6 person dorm. The room was tiny and with 6 beds in there I have a lot of trouble believing 6 people could even fit in that room along with luggage. Luckily for me it was winter so I only shared the room with one other person - I would not advise staying here in summer when it's full, would be insane and really hot.

Everything else was great. The people there were really friendly, and the reception people were incredibly helpful - I hired a bike on my second day which was relatively cheap.

All up, it's an alright hostel - it has the basic amenities, but the rooms could do with massive improvements.

We stayed at this hotel in early Sept. We rented the VAN as our room of choice. Great location and cool hotel. The issue I had was the people that were staying there. I found it to unfriendly. The people there were not interested in chatting with new people and just hanging out with the people they already knew.
We figured since we were staying at a fun, cool hostel this was going to be a perk (meeting new people).
I have nothing bad to say about the hotel. It was clean, staff was nice, bathrooms were clean and it had free breakfast. Just a weird disconnect with the people staying there.
Cost 65EUR/night

There is a warning sign - "keep the room tidy". But there is no wardrobe in the "private" room, not even a hook. Next to the bank beds (for 4 persons) there was only one! chair and a table, made from raw lumber roughly fixed with screws. A deposit of 20 Euros is to be paid. However, I doubt that the intereriour is hardly worth it. The thin matrices must be covered with bed linen yourself. Toilets and showers are on the floor. Allthough, the location is quite ideal (close to beach but also in a street with shops and restaurants), this place can only be recommended as a makeshift.

I have just returned home from my fifth stay this year at Jorplace. Each individual trip has been incomparable to any other place I have been. Every aspect makes this hostel captivating; from the great surroundings, the friendly staff and the quirky interior Jorplace has everything to offer. As for myself and most of the guests I spoke to at the hostel my trip was always extended. I would highly recommend anyone to stay!!

I am shocked to see the comment below after spending so much time at the hostel I have become friends with the staff that work there and I know in this case that the comment was actually posted by an ex member of staff who was fired for stealing and general misconduct in the hostel. Obviously the bitterness of being fired has led him to have a vendetta against Jordy. I have been in Jordy’s company many times when I stayed at the hostel and he has always been so friendly and made me more than welcome at his hostel. I have enjoyed parties with him only in a positive way and I have most definitely never seen him be rude to the guests or staff. It is clear to see that from all the other positive comments on this site. It’s a shame to bring a bad vibe to such a wonderful place.
