Stayokay Hostel Rotterdam

Amazing staffs (very knowledgeable and very fast reply) pre-arrival: we arrived by ferry (Hoek van Holland); by their advise by Metro Train (stops right outside the property & good advise on what to do in Delft (day visit) arrival early: there storage for luggages and lockers for valuables (Euro 2 for small locker & Euro 4 for large lockers per 24 hours). Payments are by digital method. we booked private room, was assigned 201 (which was right under the best photo but next to the staircase, will hear a lot of noise from outside, stairs and surrounding (again it can be irritating but we are there for the "experience" so this is part of it, just be louder or tell them off nicely.) very nice that no smoking inside the room but if your choose to keep windows open, people downstair can be smoking, you will get that smell. Breakfast was very rich (slice hams, pepperoni, and lots of bread selection, fresh brew coffee machine). Bar with location and wheat beer selections, just asks. plenty of sitting areas, balcony and front. the shower and light are with timer; towels are chargeable (or bring your own) basic all in onw (shower+shampoo) dispensers, toilet rolls are provided. the linens are provided but you need to fit it yourself. Location is amazing, train station, tourist spots, restaurants & bar, shopping streets, Hall of Market, Church, post boxes and Santa Claus (close by china town) are all within 25mins walking distance. Departure day: we were able to store our luggages and stay until afternoon (our boat departure at 22:30,) they dont kick us out; we are able to drink, eat and rest around the lobby area. for people that want to stay here, this is not for the luscious and butler-serviced resort hotel; the price is for the location and artistic uniqueness. lastly, read the name "hostel" and this is build in last 1970s. after this experience, I notice life can be very simple; all those glamorous and materials are optional in life - thank you.

This is such a cool place to stay. I did not know what to expect from a hostel, but it was very welcoming. There’s breakfast included and it was delicious and fresh. I felt really lucky to be able to stay in such a unique and historic building. We had two bunkbeds in a small room with a private bath. Towels were not included with the room, but that was not a problem. The bedding was clean and the room was comfortable.

Bad hotel. One of my guests has 2 proofs of Corona vaccination on paper. Because he is not a Dutch citizen, he has no QR code. In all other accomodations, 2 proofs on paper are accepted. Before booking, this was not mentioned. Upon arrival we got a very nasty treatment and the manager stated that the 2 papers were not a valid proof. She cut off the line because I wanted to insist on booking. This was on New Years Eve. Very bad experience on a very important day and family reunion.

Great location, in a spectacular building - the Cube houses, one of the Rotterdam's most iconic attractions. The room is one of the cubes, so has a very special shape. It was basic but clean and quiet. We stayed here at the end of November and the room was a bit cold.

Ci sono stata con la mia famiglia questo Gennaio. La posizione è il top, vicino ad un grandissimo parco naturale e a due passi dal centro di Amsterdam. La struttura ha uno stile molto particolare molto colorata che, sinceramente, adoro. Il personale è molto gentile e le camere sono carine, ci hanno assegnato dei letti a castello anche se avrei preferito delle matrimoniali. La colazione è ottima. Complessivamente è un Hostel buono, lo consiglio.

Was schoon bedden goed gedaan het ontbijt was lekker het is in het centrum je hebt goed uitzicht op Rotterdam en de markthal is heel dichtbij het station en een museum in de buurt wc is heel schoon en het eten is lekker het is niet all te groot!!!!
