Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The hotel was incredibly easy to locate in the middle of the city. The staff were so accomodating when I let them know I may be running late - they waited to check me in. Everything I needed was easily accessible and reception was always on hand to help. This was my first solo trip and I felt very safe here.

    The location of the hostel was great! It's a cute smal hostel and the private room was big, cozy and comfortable. The bathrooms are perfectly clean. There's a kitchen and common room that looked great, but we did not use it so I cannot say anything about it.

    great location in the middle of Nijmegen, close to breakfast bars and all kinds of life and nightlife. Very nice greeting and safe parking and charging possibilities for e-bikes. Room (10) was very spacious and well appointed, great bed!
