The owner is kind, and she cooked breakfast for us every morning. We could enjoy the meals she prepared each time. This place is great for backpackers. If you’re looking for a business or elegant hotel, this might not be suitable. But if you want to meet people from other countries and save money, this hotel is perfect for you. There might be some downsides, but getting meals anytime at this price really helps during your trip.

Does the job for a few days of short stay. The common area and common kitchen was good to spend time, cook your own food, work etc., as the rooms are 8-10 people bunk beds and anything other than sleeping is difficult from the bunk bed. You have to be self reliant. Close/walking distance from the city centre and Utrecht University.

The place is a great location, and the casual environment really feels like a college dorm room. Evenly (the owner) bakes fresh pastries and there is a kitchen that can be accessed 24/7 and it’s filled with basics so you’ll never go hungry, or thirsty! I highly suggest this for singles because you make some great people locally ⚡️

I paid €30 per night roughly which is cheap but I would exoect the toilet and shower to work. The shower drain would not drain the water away. The whole building needs a refurbishment. It's a dump.

The hostel was nasty. Looks like it hasn’t been cleaned in years (probably the case). The facilities were either not working or in poor condition, staff was virtually non-existent. I find it sad how exploitative this property is of the housing crisis. Students with limited financial opportunities will take anything just to have a roof over their head, this hostel takes advantage of that and the price for the quality of the amenities is outright criminal. For me, this doesn’t even hit the bare minimum. The neglect of hygiene from the staff’s part is outrageous and morally questionable, profiting off of poor people and giving a sub-optimal experience in return is not a great attribute to have… I truly hope you’ll do better!

This place is filthy!!! Understand that there are no bed sheets provided which is fine. However, they don't even clean up after the last customers check out! I was in the room with 3 other girls and there were around 6-7 beds. All the beds and pillows were dirty and had dust and stain on them. I had to cover myself with my jacket when I lay down. And there is no wifi downstairs. Wifi was accessible upstairs at the reception but not in the room. The kitchen is full of flies. yes, there is free breakfast provided, but they have flies all over them and is absolutely disgusting. The only 'tidy' place was the bathroom, cos one of the girls was staying there for months and was cleaning the bathroom herself. do not recommend at all. if you are looking for a cheap place to stay, id say just go sleep at the train station. at least it is free and cleaner!

It’s a nice no nonsense property. The owner seems to care a lot about her guests. There does seem to be a regular guest named Lynsey who appears to be a prostitute but she is not pushy and adds to the character of the place.

The way hostels used to be: not excessively clean; bring-your-own towel/sheet; not everything functioning; good location; working wifi; super cheap (relatively); and with tons of free food at all times. You can complain all you want, and/or be happy a place like this still exists.

That place isn’t a place for human beings to stay. And there’s a guy there who’s so so so disrespectful and arrogant. I strongly believe he may be abusing strong drags. Funny enough they sent me a mail asking me to bring a bed spread of my own. And the moment a got there, I realised I’m in for a surprise. I left few hours later to go and stay in a train station instead till it’s my time to go to the airport. I can send you a picture or a short video of the room if you want.
