My favorite things: The pod style bunk beds with curtains, light and outlet to charge were great. I was able to check in early since a bed was available. Having a bike room to lock up my ebike rental. Lockers in the basement to secure my pack, instead of buying the heavy lock to carry the rest of my hiking trip. Pasta night was a fantastic way to connect with other solo travelers. The entire staff was very friendly and hospitable. Mirjam especially was delightful. I enjoyed the breakfast, especially the chai tea latte and plain Greek yogurt. It was perfect supplies to make a quick sandwich for lunch on the bike that day.

Nothing.

I travel often for short visits, and not often do I find places that exceed my expectations. This is definitely an excellent place. Staffs were very friendly and helpful, Monique who did my checkin was very helpful and gave me some good advice on transport and places to visit. Joyace, who was always with a big smile, gave me some good tips about the city. Other staffs were also very kind and friendly. The place and the room were very colorful, vibrant, and clean, guest kitchen, Toilets, and showers were clean and tidy. The location was great, lots of nice places within the walking distance. I enjoyed my stay at this place.

Great people taking care of the hostel, fast response when something does not work (AC had to be reset), talk to them, they have the best recommendations. Kitchen works out and is sorted just fine, the clock tower flat is a dream (they even have a working record player with records). Good and cheap breakfast, staggered by time. Area is close to everything, from supermarket, parking, waterfront to the park. Safe enough to just chain up the bikes outside, even though they have a place for bikes.

Not really our complaint, but: be prepared for the stairs. Don't book on top if you can't manage.

- Location is great. Close to the central train station, the center and the southern part through Erasmus bridge - The 4 bed dorm was very spacious and includes chairs and a table. - The reception lady gave me good tips for the city, the place does have a family friendly and warm vibe. I understand some of the younger people working there can also give tips for going out and sometimes show around guests - Met some really cool people there

- The bathroom/showers are outside the room, that is inconvenient but i knew that when i booked. The set up in the men’s showers is really weird, the floor is wet if one person showers and the shower area is very narrow. Nowhere to sit in order to change. I expected more for this price - Dirty toilets, they need some more cleaning or renovation in that area - No AC - The best hostels in Rotterdam in my opinion are this and King Kong. King Kong has a very lively bar attached on the main nightlife street while Room is not very social

I couldn’t begin to list all the things I liked about this place but I’ll try a few: excellent breakfast (well worth the low price), the most friendly staff, warm and cozy feeling around the place, location of the hostel being right in the action of Rotterdam, delicious beers on tap, fun events each day (never got to try pasta day but I wish I had), and discounted tickets for various touristy things. I was travelling alone and had never been to Rotterdam before, but this lot made me feel at home and were willing to help with any of my requests! They were all also super knowledgable about the area!! Shout out to Sam and Max, unfortunately I didn’t get every staff members name but you were all great. Thanks for a lovely stay, if I’m back in Rotterdam I’ll come here for sure x

Literally nothing

Hostel Room is a perfect choice if you're looking for an affordable accomodation in the centre of Rotterdam. The interior is really cosy, common area very welcoming as well as the staff. The breakfast is also worth considering, as there's a variety of products to choose from and good value for money. There were no queues to female bathrooms. We especially cherished the Multicultural room, it was really fancy and we felt as if we were princesses!

I was stayed in the DROOM private room for a business trip. The room was lovely. We had all we needed. There were large and clean bathrooms and toilets on every floor. The communal living room was really cozy. Meals were cheap and good. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Evening activities were not very well advertised or differed from the ones advertised. The room was a tiny bit smaller than we expected.

The location was beautiful and the staff was so helpful and kind. We chose it due to it's close proximity to the cruise terminal and the price. We got very lucky as we were upgraded on arrival to have a full private room. Which was very nice to have with our 2 young children. Keep in mind that you do have to walk stairs. We were at the top floor with a nice view. You have to be able bodied and have luggage that is easily carried, as there is no elevator in the property.

The ambience and feel of the place is cool and very inviting. All possible facilities were available. The staff were amazing - so friendly, accommodating and helpful. If the weather outside is frightful, then there's plenty of books & magazines to read, a piano to play, and super kitsch ornaments and crockery added to the feel of the breakfast/social area. The cages under the beds were a super idea for keeping items safe and were a great size. Other guests were pleasant which is good when sharing a dorm with strangers.

As it was super cold outside, they could have turned the heating on in the breakfast/social area. Some more hooks on the walls in the dorms to hand clothes/coats etc while sleeping would have been good.

The hostel is in a protected building and had quirky decor from the moment we walked in. We were greeted by a welcoming, friendly and professional staff member. We were upgraded to The Clock Tower room which was exceptional - the history behind it, its large size, the 2 circular windows where the large clocks use to be, the comfort of the beds, the facilities (our own shower and kitchenette) all for an amazing price! Breakfast was included and was plenty for us. The manager (I didn't get his name) chatted to us and was full of information. There's a well stocked bar too. We didn't stay long enough to avail of all the services (games room) but we will definitely stay there again. The location was great!! Thanks to the team for a lovely stay - it added to our overall positive experience of Rotterdam....
