I felt like there could be a more relaxing space outside of the bar. Also, the dorm room felt a bit overcrowded, and there were a few people nearby who snored loudly, which made it hard to sleep

Love this hostel! It was one of the workers birthday and we all celebrated. It was so fun to make small talk with people as well. The bar can be chaos but if you need time to chill without so many people you can walk down stairs to the happy room (living room) and there is a full kitchen aswell. If I ever get a chance to come back to amsterdam i'm definitely spending a few nights here!

Good location

Great location downtown Amsterdam although I think I like the location of the uptown one more. There is an awesome smoking room but there is not enough space for all the guests so I wish this were bigger.

Rude

We have not been told that we cannot use the storage 6 hours after the checkout so we rented them for 24 hours because there were no option as 8 hours which is what we needed. When we arrived to the hostel for getting our bags, the reception told us that we are very late and we have been told about the policy, which we were not. Main logic of renting lockers is to drop the bags in the hostel instead of carrying them. If we had a room, we could have left them in our own lockers. Then i just asked for time to charge my phone for 15 minutes with my own charger. Then he said because we are already 2 hours late, he can charge my phone only for 5 minutes instead of 15. Ridiculous!!!

I had a fairly negative experience at The Flying Pig hostel, which sadly was not alleviated by speaking with staff. In my first room, I could see dead bed bugs within the bed frame (stuck there in cobwebs). I brought this up with staff, they went into the room, inspected it, didn't see anything, and had me point out exactly where it was and still didn't see anything; this was quite awkward, as there were many other people in the room. However they did move me to an alternate 8-bed room. In the 8-bed room, I again found dead bed bugs, but this time in the bedsheets. At this point I accepted defeat and simply didn't say anything to the staff. In both of the rooms that I was in, they were dimmly lit (contrary to how the rooms are shown in the images), the area around the matress were disgusting (it looks like the sides/under the matress have not been cleaned in months), and the floor was made of some bizarre fabric-type material which I can't imagine get cleaned very well. At one point on my trip, I had left 500g sealed chocolate bars on my bed (planning to later place them into my suitcase). Hours later I had come back with a notice on my bed saying that the chocolate bars were moved to the kitchen. The chocolate bars were thankfully not stolen, but it was just so ridiculous to have sealed food items taken from my bed by the hostel staff. There were more negative aspects of this hostel, but I've reached the character limit. This hostel is NOT cleanly.
