I think that Stayokay Den Haag has been one of the best hostels that I've stayed in... In comparison to other hostels I've been at in Asia and Australia.

I was traveling on a school trips taking students so this was not really a vacation for me. They offer a number of room types, I stayed in a 2-bed room by myself. My students stayed in 4-bed rooms (2 bunk beds).

There was an attached math room for each room, which I was quite impressed with as all the other hostels that I've been in only have communal toilets. My room had a fully attached bathroom like you would find in a hotel and the 4-bed rooms had different 'rooms' for the toilet and shower and open sink area. I thought this was quite clever so that different people could use different parts at the same time.

Our package also included buffet breakfast and a 3-course dinner for each night. The food was really good considering that we only paid an extra 6euro for both meals a day, the price also included a set of towels. Breakfast consisted of organic bread (white and brown), cheese, ham, cereal, granola, yogurt, jams/peanut butter/other spreads, fruit of the day, orange juice, milk and a coffee/cappuccino hot water dispenser. Pretty neat! I don't get that at some inns and hotels!

Dinner was quite horrendous the first night as we were the only group eating... Guess they don't make much for small groups, but as the days passed and more people arrived (for the conference ), the food got better. Last tight was had baked salmon with potatoe slices in a creamy cheese sauce - heavenly!!!!! And definitely worth more than 6euro!! It was buffet style, so I went back for seconds! One night! They also served us a beef stew, that was delicious too!

The rooms are clean, and their heater worked very well. The shower also dispensed very hot water.... Nice for the cold cold temperatures right now. No complaints there! They also gave us a towel, which they replenished with fresh ones every Wednesday. Sweet!!! I thought that this was definitely an extra service!!

Cleaners also come into the room to change/give new toilet paper, sweep up the bathroom, clean the hair and toilet bowl every day as well, so I came back to a clean toilet every evening. Now, I never got this service at any other hostel before!!

They also have a bar area, happy hour 2for1 every night from 830-930pm. That was nice, though the staff tend to eat their dinner at that time too... So sometimes no one is at the bar to take drink or food orders. Also the kitchen closes quite early (9pm), and it's a bit disappointing when I can't get some fries withmy beer.... Other than that, it's a nice chill area where they show football matches on a larger screen! Saw the barca vs real Madrid match the other night!
They also have a pool table and foolsball table as well. Though you'll need some coins to play! Was a really good bonding activity with students!

The only other downside was the temperamental elevator. Sometimes you could get it to come down, sometime, it was easier to just walk up the 3 floors. But other than that... It was a great place! I would definitely come back and stay here if I come back to vacation on my own!!
