amazing hostel, worth the money
i think this was the best hostel i stayed in europe. it's super clean and organized, the staff is friendly and helpful, the area is safe and has great access to public transportation. the only downsides are the lack of a shared kitchen (you'll have to eat out everyday) and the location being a bit far from the central area of the city. you'll spend a lot of time inside public transportation.

Quiet and safe, very friendly staff & had all the amenities/ facilities I needed. Showers were available when I needed them without the need for a wait, and the lockers & curtains for the bed were very very much appreciated!! Good amount of privacy for a hostel, I’d come here againㅤᵕ̈

I loved how safe I felt the whole time, the bed was also really comfortable and lovely design. A bit of a tight space to share but worth the location and comfort.

Amazing location, you can walk or take a quick tram ride anywhere you want to go. I felt safe the whole time. This is definitely a top pick for solo travelling, especially as a woman. I would absolutely recommend!

The hostel is very clean, close to the centre (10 min walk or 5 by bus). All the staff was friendly, from Isaya (if I got his name correctly) to Gaby, the gym guy, the night one and the girl with straight, black hair. Property was not old and they told me that soon they are also going to open other rooms, which means even more cleanliness. I'll be back to Amsterdam and definitely I will go back again to The Bee Hostel

Lovely stay. I really enjoyed that it was far enough from the hustle and bustle of Amsterdam, but close enough that you can take a bike, walk or public transit to get where you’d like. My favorite was how close it was to the zoo! Staff were kind and on call. If you can handle stairs, this place is for you!
