Hostel in a green area with nice views from the rooms. Everything was as described, nothing more nothing less. Easy parking with charging stations. Would be a great stay in summer or spring.

My stay was great. I booked a room for 8 guests. It was clean and comfortable. The toilet was also clean. I really liked the nature surrounding the hostel and the breakfast as well.

There is absolutely no reason that this property should show up on a search for Utrecht accommodations. Between the multiple train stops and walk it is about a 40 minute commute.

Had a lovely time here.
Really enjoyed our stay. Staff was very helpful and even returned my husband to our room when he was lost and could not find us. The food was great with lots to choose from. The place was very clean and the atmosphere was great. There are quite a few communal areas with newspapers, books and games. Throughout the day you can always get drinks. This is our second time we stayed here and certainly will come again.

Shocked
Fairly new and very clean building but as I have never stayed in a hostel before and fault was completely mine not to check the booking information so was very shocked to find myself back in boarding school days. Initial room was very dirty and smelled so on request it’s changed to a better one.

Rooms smaller than we anticipated from the advertising literature. Shower and toilet area smelly in the room. Communal are all nice. Hiring bikes to explore the area is brilliant. Breakfast are good.

Great value for money
A very good budget hostel with private bathroom. The interior design is very nice and the staff is friendly. Breakfast is good too. The only thing needed to improve is the senser light in the bathroom. It cannot work properly as a senser light.

Fantastic service, great food!
I loved it here. It was quite quiet, and there weren't many other people about but I managed to catch up on some e-mails whilst sat on a huge couch right by a plug socket. Just what I needed. I had dinner which was delicious! Felt more like a five star restaurant than a hostel. I 'hired out' some towels, which probably could have been a bit nicer, but they were sufficient! The only problem I personally had was how far away from everything it was.

There are many places for children around the building. Staffs are very friendly and they let me stay there after check out. Breakfast is good and the lunch box system is good as well.

If you are looking for a fancy place do not book a room here. Affordable price , close to Utrecht and Amsterdam. The free internet not very good! The breakfast is fine.

No vale el ahorro.
Por el precio muy mal. Por unos €10 adicionales, se puede acceder a un hotel con toallas, jabones y que no huela mal, como este. El desayuno 3.5/5. El equipo de recepción, fantástico y super agradable.

Prima sobere kamer voor heel nette prijs. Stil. Voel me er thuis. Ik vertrok te vroeg voor het ontbijt, maar kreeg een prima royaal ontbijtpakket. Bed is voor mij wat kort - heb thuis 210cm - en voor mijn gevoel ietwat smal.
