Stayokay Haarlem - Hostel

Hostel is quite a way out of Haarlem and next to a busy road but on arrival we discovered we had been given a room at the back facing the park - much appreciated as 4 cyclists on a cycle/touring holiday. Lovely friendly staff . Had some snacks from the bar and there was a lovely brazier to sit around in the garden . Met some friendly Dutch and Americans. Breakfast adequate for our needs .

Everything was clean and right for our stay! Family of 5

Nice for a 2 night stay, it had everything we needed and the included breakfast was nice. Our room had a broken window and the toilet room smelled odd. Other than that it was a great price for the property.

Breakfast good. Room was okay. Staff was amazing. Not much parking and had to pay for towels, strip our own beds

We love the shower. It is convenient place for we only stay overnight.

Nice clean hostel with good breakfast.

The location with free parking was excellent. We used the bus stop across the street to ride into the heart of the city amd back. The ride was enjoyable and we took in the architecture and sites. Downtown we shopped, and had a drink and baked goods and enjoyed more incredible views. We had a room with private bath and shower and two bunk beds for the four of us. The breakfast was good with many selections of beverage, fruits, cheeses, meats and breads. You will make your own bed and towels are rented for a couple dollars per person. The drive to Schipol airport was not bad at all, however we allowed ample time and drove off peak.

It was too priced

Our first hostel experience was positive, but a bunk bed isn't for me anymore. I could see this as a good route for families and younger singles, though.

awesome, for the last night to spend in Europe, no complants

Clean place and friendly staff. Check in was easy and we got the room we paid for.

Huge park beside the hostel for ultimate relaxation in Dutch spirit

The front desk young ladies were so nice and friendly !

The StayOkay was as the name suggests okay. The staff was friendly and helpful and the room was clean. Breakfast was delicious! And, the bike service was convenient. We were really disappointed with the temperature in our room. It was very HOT and humid!! They were not able to give us a fan. The hostel is located north of the city, which is a bus ride away...a little farther than was convenient.

We very much enjoyed the neighboring parks and restaurants. The attendants were very friendly and helpful. The beds were difficult to climb in and out of and other occupants became quite loud early in the morning and at intervals during the night.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Friendly staff. Great area. Wonderful experience for our family of 5.

good for a short stay

I rarely rate my stays anywhere but I was surprised at the convenience of this hostel. The rooms were quite fresh and welcoming, and new linen was provided. I'm not a great fan of continental breakfasts but a good choice was provided and for the room price it was more than adequate. Some smart employee even themed documentation on the front desk to accommodate like-minded residents (As there were a lot of us attending a local convention). Great job, would stay again!

Considering we booked the hostel just 4 days before NYE, for the amount we paid to stay at stayokay over New Years weekend we were pleasantly suprised. We were expecting it to be terrible but it was not bad at all. The room was clean, basic but had everything we needed. The shower was good and powerful. We had a private room for 4 with bunk beds and a private bathroom, bunk beds weren’t ideal but with close friends we were comfortable in the room. Only negatives were that the wasn’t a full length mirror and it was quite expensive to get a taxi back to after a night out. On public transport during the day it easy to get to and from Amsterdam (about 40mins).

Stayok is close to a bus stop with a frequent and speedy bus service to Haarlem Centraal and Centrum. Area is peaceful and backs on to woodland. Breakfast was good and plentiful.
