St Christophers Inn at the Winston

Perfect location but the downstairs bar is a little bit noisy Not offering free luggage storage

Location: it's a great location because it's only a less than 10 minute walk from the Amsterdam Central station. It's so convenient. But the hostel entrance/reception is located inside a pub/restaurant. Personally I have no problem with this. I just find this interesting. There was also a security-looking guy standing at the entrance at night every day too, so it was pretty safe. Cleanliness: it was very clean. Every day someone took out the trash and cleaned the bathroom for us, which I didn't expect. They gave us a new, clean towel every day too. I really like these things about the hostel. Service: It depends on who you meet. The ladies that I talked to were all friendly and helpful. But there was a guy that was rather unhelpful and rude. I asked, "Do you have data sim cards?" He said, "No, we don't provide for that." (Of course I knew the hostel didn't provide sim cards for free; I was asking if the hostel *sells* sim cards.) I asked, "Do you know where I can get one? I can't get on the internet with the hostel wifi." He said, "There's no problem with the hostel wifi, otherwise a lot of people would be complaining about it." (I wasn't complaining about the hostel wifi wasn't working; I was asking if he knew where I could get a sim card since I couldn't get on the internet to look for them.) Facilities: I like that there was a curtain on each bed. The bed and the room were also spacious enough. The windows were almost soundproof, isolating all the noises from the people drinking downstairs. The bathroom was also very clean. The only thing I didn't like was that there were brown stains on the blanket, which looked disgusting. There was also space for luggages (it's on the 2nd floor) if you don't want to store them in your room. There was, however, no kitchen or common areas. But the room was big enough and had a table. It was ok for me. One thing I really didn't like were the people who stayed in my room. All of them were obnoxious: wouldn't clean up after using the bathroom (hair everywhere), leaving their stuff in the bathroom/on the table so others couldn't use the space/table, kept coughing all night (meaning they were sick) and wouldn't open the windows for ventilation. I hardly had a good night's sleep because they kept coughing at night. But this wasn't the hostel's fault. It's those people's problems. All in all, I recommend staying at this hotel.

I will come back again. This is a promise that proves my love for your service and your kind treatment.

Shower smelled like mould and had hardly any water pressure. USB ports didn’t work. No outlets in the bathroom. No curtains on the beds. Elevator was filthy. Fan was so covered in dust that it rained like confetti when we turned the fan on. Positives: not far from central station and a clean towel every day.

Stayed a night was nice enough, nice smoking area and very much in the middle of things

It was great I was here last month as well so it’s nice I would say and I will come again
