Staff at both the check-in desk and the onsite bar were great—friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The room was relatively clean, and housekeeping came in daily, which is fantastic. That said, I’d still recommend bringing slippers or slides, as that’s generally a good idea in shared spaces.

I stayed in a 4-bed dorm, which was fairly relaxed. The beds could be a bit creaky at times, so earplugs are definitely worth bringing. In terms of comfort, they’re basic foam mattresses with clean sheets and a decent blanket—nothing too fancy, but perfectly serviceable for a short stay.

There’s almost always something happening downstairs, which gives the place a lively atmosphere. It’s a great spot if you want to hang out in the lobby, get some work done, or meet new people!

I'd say it was certainly good value for me as a solo traveller, though YMMV of course.

The room was clean but the bed was very noisy and blanket was very thin for a very cold room. Also, there was no soap in the shower.

Better than many hotels, out of its league for a hostel. Staff does room cleanings every day, fresh sheets and towels, spacious shower and comfy bedding. The room itself was warm and very spacious for two, with a double closet, mirrors, desk and hairdryer. There’s also a menu provided for the pub downstairs that you can order takeaway from, and great breakfast options!
Only thing to note was no shampoo/conditioner is provided

Much better than expected

We were quite worried before coming here because of some negative reviews we had read — people mentioned it was dirty or that the staff were unfriendly, and we were also a bit concerned that the place might attract some rough guests.

But maybe we were lucky — during our four-night stay as a family of four, there were many other families staying as well. In the evenings, lots of kids were playing table tennis and board games, creating such a lively and friendly atmosphere.

The rooms are simple, yes, but clean and comfortable. Every night we went downstairs to play games and enjoy delicious food together. The staff at the pub on the ground floor were especially kind and made us feel truly welcome — they really added to our experience.

In most hotels, our family usually ends up staring at our phones or iPads after dinner, but here we spent real quality time together — it was wonderful. Our kids still talk about Via Amsterdam and say they want to go back!

There is one small downside: when lying in bed, you can hear a low humming sound from what seems like the ventilation or boiler system in the hallway. It might bother light sleepers. I used earplugs and slept fine.

Other than that, everything was great. Highly recommended for families who want a fun, social, and friendly place to stay.

Meh. Was happy to move elsewhere.

Wanted to extend my stay for 1 more night. They had plenty of beds / rooms available, but said I had to leave and come back at 3 PM. Not sure if this is just an attempt at generating additional profit from fees, or employee incompetence.
Speaking of employees: employees at this location could use training in better customer service. Definitely have plenty of better experiences with most other places. Happily left and took my business elsewhere, and saved some money, too !

Second time staying here. I would stay here again however I think there needs to be a reminder to some guests about quiet hours. I had to tell people in my dorm to be quiet very late at night and told another to take a phone call outside. I think a reminder on sharing rooms and rules to guests would be great as it did effect my sleep where as before I had lovely guests who were considerate of others in the room. This is nothing to do with the hostel though as it’s such a lovely place to stay! I love everything about it and feels like a home from home when I stay. There’s always people around and the staff are always willing to help. 10/10 place to stay!

Was a nice stay. Beds were fine. Staff friendly. I wish they would clean they bathroom just very basic like mopping the floor a little each day as it was horrible after 8 people (in my room for example) shower and then step on the floor with no drainage system it’s soaking wet then when people walk in there with shoes on because it’s so wet then it gets very dirty. And I had to ask for more toilet paper as it ran out and the toilet stopped working (luckily on my last night) and we were told to either stay in the room and use the communal toilets or can change rooms. Enough space for lots of luggage in the rooms and provide lockers.

When attempting to check in for 1500 which we’d paid for, we were told the room wasn’t quite ready and we would have a short wait. That wait turned into nearly 30 minutes and the staff member who was dealing with us left for the day without telling his colleagues about us. Other staff were helpful as ever and the hostel itself was good, twin room on our own for the price we payed was nice and the lobby was really nice and modern.

The property was cold in the respect it was vinyl flooring everywhere. My room had no coffee or tea making facilities. I asked and paid for a double bedroom. It had two single beds made up a singles pushed together. One of the beds had lots of shortish black hairs all in it, im blonde. The common room was constantly dirty and no teaspoons available. I was informed i could make coffee there but not told i had to purchase the ingredients. The coffee made at the bar was not good and in my personal opinion it was expensive. I paid on an app i had to download for a load of washing. The app topped up my account again, BE AWARE OF THIS. My washing was not clean and to get my credit back it costs me an admin fee.
This place is definitely bettet described as a hostel and NOT A HOTEL.

We slept in the room above the smoking area, It was really noisy… we have heard people late in the night and very early in the morning, they put some music very loud too. At last, the curtains in the room didn’t block out the light well, so we woke up really early — on top of the noise.

First of all, the name of this property is completely inappropriate. Conventionally logic dictates that \"Hotel\" means you get basic facilities like towels and a cup of tea/coffee. This place is actually a \"Hostel\" and should be named as such - maybe you can call it \"Via Hotel Hostel\" if you insist the word \"Hotel\" is part of our brand name.
Anyways, I was inconvenienced by the fact that no towels were provided and were asked to pay 8Euros to buy fresh towels incase I didnt have one. Luckily I had brought my own towel, but since I had to leave early morning next day, I had to shower in the night and manage the towel drying situation. Also no tea/ coffee in the room meant I stop by at a services and further waste 20 mins of my time. All in all, a bad experience, stay away if you are looking for a hotel. Don't go by the name.
