It's very New, Clean and Comfortable Hostel

I am glad to know that hostel.

Free Wi-fi, Linnen, Locker etc....

One of reasons for choice of this hostel is the Location.

In front of the hostel, you can see the most famous museums in the world.

The hostel will only change the sheets if a new guest arrives and in a room of 8 beds, people sometimes take a bed other than the one assigned. This means that you may show up and find yourself sleeping in dirty sheets ... blood stained, sick stained ... you name it! Having arrived late and asking them to change the sheets the next morning, they initially refused and blamed me for the dirty sheets! I had to argue with them before they would do anything. This really put a 'stain' on the rest of the stay. And I witnessed the same thing happen to someone else that arrived.

Other than that, as far as hostel living goes, the Van Gogh is a really nice place. The bathrooms are small but newly decorated and the whole place has more of a low-key hotel feel than a hostel feel.

The one suggestion I would make is that they put a mirror at the dressing table in the bedroom. With one bathroom between 8 people (6 girls in our room), the bathroom is occupied long after the shower is finished as it's the only mirror and hair drying spot. You can wait for 2 hours before you can get in there sometimes. Bad planning.

"One of the best hostels I've stayed in!"
