Stayokay Hostel Rotterdam

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.

It's tragic experience.i went with good disposal and i m gone two days after so tired...2 days with no sleep.... Staying at this particular hotel is a military exercise... Every day waking up from 6:30 because the others people ,staying were obviously working in the morning. At 6:30 the lights were turned on and the fuss began. That they go out ,I tried to sleep as result I didn't eat breakfast any day. So small bed space and so dirty. every maneuver was impossible. the walls were made of paper, everything could be heard from the other apartments I asked for a down bed because I have a problem with my leg. nevertheless I was told by the reception that it is unpossible and this is random.. After I found a bed down and made it ,at night I found another person sleeping in this bed. so I had to sleep in another and up bed. It's the worst experience ,i had......you don't reservation this hostel....

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.

Stayokay Rotterdam undoubtedly has one of the best locations the entire city has to offer. If you get off the train at Rotterdam Blaak, you'll find the hotel right at the doorsteps of the station. It's also just a minute away from the huge Markthal and you'll find a local farmers' market open every Tuesday and Saturday. The room is minimalistic, you literally get 2 beds and you'll also have to make them up yourself with the linens provided. You'll notice that the room is in an odd shape, but that's because of the cube's construct which makes for an interesting experience. Unfortunately, that's all there is to the hotel, because all the other parts are disappointing to say the least. Despite having rules on being "quiet" to respect other guests after 10PM, the staff at Stayokay Rotterdam obviously does nothing to stop anyone from being noisy. My spouse and I couldn't sleep at all - and my other half even had to resort to using noise cancelling earbuds just to block off the noise the entire night. People were stomping around their rooms, slamming doors, and screaming and shouting - but the staff did nothing to stop them. If you absolutely want to stay here, do bring ear plugs or risk not sleeping the whole night. The toilet in the room was another disappointing experience, as you'll find the water shuts off after every 30 seconds so you have to keep pushing down the button if you want to clean yourself off. There was an overwhelming stench of pee in the toilet from the moment we stepped into the room, so I'm wary if deep cleaning is a part of their everyday "room service" routine. Towels are not provided, so bring your own. I heard you can rent them from the hotel, but I didn't get any. Soap is provided, but you'll have to get your own toiletries like toothbrushes and toothpaste. No hairdryer could be found in the room either. Finally, we were rushed out of the room well before the check-out time, because housekeeping kept wanting to come inside. We were told that check-out was 11AM, but housekeeping came banging on our doors at 930AM, 10AM, and 1045AM. When we mentioned that we are aware of the check-out time and we were just packing up, they reacted angrily that they need to clean the room for the next batch of guests. This was odd to us, since they don't even make the beds - we had to do them ourselves when we first checked-in. Also, check-in was only at 2PM, so they definitely didn't have to prepare for anyone at 11AM. Overall, our overnight experience at Stayokay Rotterdam was highly convenient but the stay itself was disappointing to say the least. Definitely not a spot for kids or for the elderly. There is a lift inside the hotel itself, but you'll have to walk up several steps to get to the lobby. While it's not that expensive, I really wouldn't stay again and would rather pay a little more for a hotel or hostel where I can at least get some rest.

Due notti mi sembrano sufficienti per una valutazione obiettiva. La location è discreta: vicino al centro ma sopra ad alcuni locali (birrerie e altri) sporchi e maleodoranti. La camera a noi assegnata (202) è piccolissima e assolutamente non adatta per 4 persone, avendo anche una colonna nel mezzo che rende difficoltosa ogni manovra. Bagno con odore di urina. Camera visibilmente vissuta, pulizia approssimativa. Una sola finestra apribile per pochi centimetri. Colazione buona (inclusa nel prezzo) ma rapporto complessivo qualità/prezzo non soddisfacente.

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.
