This was my first time in a hostel, and I had a lot of reservation about it, but I felt very safe and comfortable there. The price is/was fair and the staff was professional and kind. The facility is very clean, and security is very reliable as i was staying in an all girl room. I would definitely book again.

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

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

I was pleasantly surprised with my experience! I was in the all female dorm and I was very happy. It was within walking distance to everything- or the bus stop is right around the corner if you would rather take transit. The staff were very friendly and helpful as well!
