Awesome hostel very close to the center of Groningen and UMCG. Stayed in a single room, which was very clean and had a good bed. The breakfast was great, with fruits, breads, cheese, and other options. Wifi was good. The bathroom is shared, and could be a little bit more clean. The shower also turns off by itself after a few minutes.

Great hostel

Second time here. Very handy location with bus stop outside and about 20min walk to the main station.
No frills.
We booked a two bed apartment - which did not appear to be as advertised. We'd actually booked 'a room' in an apartment where the other room was booked also.
Cop-on moment - this is a youth hostel..
Clean facilities. Friendly staff.

Handy stopover

This place is okay if you are on a tight budget. Breakfast is not included, and you have to pay separately, and it is not worth the price. There are nearby eateries and supermarkets where you can find good food and drinks. The showers were a disaster and only hot water came out from them!
However, the bus stop is just outside the hostel, and that is a good thing about this place!

Cheap place to stay

I have stayed in over 100 hostels around the world, almost all of them in developing (poor) countries, but I've never experienced mattresses that are this bad, by far. In comfort, they are not that far away from just sleeping on a hard floor.

Pretty bad

On arrival they asked us to pay right away. I've never had that experience anywhere in Europe. The two receptionists were grumpy and unfriendly. I really wonder how on earth they can hold positions like this. The room was in a cellar with moderate lights, very low ceilings and exposure to the outside noise from the smoking area... The room was clean and tidy. The mattresses were old and way too soft. No surprise, they were caving in already we landed on them. I understand it is a "hostel" but then the price should also reflect that... 72 EUR (with 10 EUR discount) So basically an 82 EUR private room with shared toilet and bathroom for 1 night!!!!!! Nonsense. It is not Paris or London. It is a small Dutch town...

Pricy place, staff is not friendly at all.

People were very friendly. Location is good and breakfast was simple but ok. However, paper thin walls and windows with air vents you cannot close in combination with loud people hanging around in the courtyard till deep in the night is a total disaster. We were also unaware our "deluxe" room was a shared apartment with no power plugs in the bedroom or a private bathroom. We found out it was shared when a guy just opened the door middle of the night.
