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!

Amazing location, you can walk or take a quick tram ride anywhere you want to go. I felt safe the whole time. This is definitely a top pick for solo travelling, especially as a woman. I would absolutely recommend!

I loved how safe I felt the whole time, the bed was also really comfortable and lovely design. A bit of a tight space to share but worth the location and comfort.

Fabulous place to stay. Clean, comfortable with incredibly helpful and friendly staff. Especially Max. Beds are comfortable and the bathroom is spotless. Really easy to reach central Amsterdam only 4 stops by tram which is outside the Bee Hostel. I would definitely stay there again

Had to find a last minute place to stay on my last day of the trip. I picked Bee Hostel. Great location, great staff, quite sleeping space. 10/10 will be back for future trips.
