Hostel Ecomama, Amsterdam

The entire place had a lovely comfortable vibe. I loved the rustic feel of the room, the shower especially. Everything was very minimalist but very high quality, and the staff were very kind to us. I've never stayed in such a hotel before.

I wish there was a bit more information before booking. I'd have loved to know just what is in our room before arrival (There is shampoo for the shower but no hand-soap for the sink or kettle in the room). I'd have loved to know about the shared kitchen area before-hand, I'd have used it more.

The location, ambiance, and helpful staff.

The communal areas such as the courtyard and lounge were nice and a good place to relax or socialise. The bathrooms were clean and we found it ideal having robes due to the communal showers.

But the music in the communal area was playing too loud at night so it made it difficult to get sleep. This may also be because the rooms weren’t very soundproof which is an area that could be fixed. All the staff were welcoming except one.

i really like how friendly the stuff was and how comfy the bed was :)

didn’t like the shower but its not the thing where i would say it was really bad

Fully equipped kitchen Good rooms

It was Not possible to leave your backpack before chrckin. Only if you pay for a locker. And locker are not big.

12 people in one room was really close-no air. When window opened it blew on a person’s head and they couldn’t sleep

Location. Bar. Sustainability. Clean, comfortable room. Private bathroom.

No breakfast items available to purchase.

Location is ok. There are actually a lot of different tools in the kitchen. Lots of common spaces, bar on site, safe.

There are not even curtains in the common room, the bed creaks, there are sewage pipes above the room with an occasional audible sound. I saw a rat running around in the yard. Anyway, paying 149 euros for three nights is a lot for a 12-bed room.

It was clean, comfortable and safe. The staff was helpful and I had a good stay. I highly recommend this hostel.

Nice and comfy. The staff could be a little more helpful, but all was good in the end.

Very nice hotel and quiet. Private rooms are good size and confortable. Safe area close to the city center

Very thin walls, you could hear people talking on the phone but they give you earplugs.

Place was clean, attentive staff, close to centre

Bedroom , one chair, the bed so high up

Clean tidy and friendly staff

It was a bit of a walk into centre

The vibe, the decor and the staff

No real windows in my room which I thought had been miscommunicated saying inner court yard wiew, whereas the *window" overlooks the common room

Easy to find , cute and cozy.

Only negative was the thin walls , could hear people walking and talking from the room at night time.

Lovely Hostel, really nice kitchen dining area

Nothing

Near , clean

No towel

The shower that worked with a button

Great time at ClinkMama! Lovely Aussie girl checked us in. Quick and easy. Would stay again!

6.39am pretty sure staff were cleaning the kitchen…. Lots of slamming/dishwashing violently.

The location was great, and the staff was amazing! We had a few random questions, and they helped us with everything we needed. The café in the front is really cute, too, and the drinks and food was really good. The shared space of the hostel was really comfortable, and we enjoyed chilling there instead of alone in our room. Also, we had booked a room with canal view, and said view really was nice!

Unfortunately, the price for the luggage lockers is a bit high (7€ for 6 hours). Also, you could hear everyone in the hallway and sometimes even in the rooms next to ours, so earplugs really are a good idea.

Staff were friendly and kitchen layout was amazing.

Mattress was thin and uncomfortable.

The facilities were really good, the kitchen and common places were well equipped and comfortable. Also the location was really good, the distances to main attractions were walkable.

The bedrooms weren’t soundproof at all. This can be solved with earplugs but it was a little uncomfortable at first. And the showers couldn’t be temperature regulated so it was a inconvenient.

Very nice place and welll equipped kitchen.

The staff is very kind.

Location ; having a private room and option to self cater

Nothing not to like

I liked the main area ant the staff, they were very helpful. I likes that there are lockers for stuff to leave. Kitchen ant the area around was very clean and spacious.

I didn't like the beds and the joint room. The smell was not so great, because there were full of people. The bunk beds were loud and squeegee. No noise blocking curtains or anything and the toilets and shower were joint for men and women.

Good value for the price, good location not far from Amsterdam Centraal, nice hall to rest and well equipped kitchen, pleasant inner yard

Lights in toilet rooms did not work, only one toilet room actually had lights. It was way too hot inside the dormitory room and bad air ventilation. Also if you plan to charge your phone next to a bed prepare a USB (regular, not type C) cable. There is only one socket with power strip per 8 person dormitory room. Also my pad lock did not work for a locker, only specific shaped/sized locks would work, or probably you can rent/buy one at the reception, however I did not ask about it.

Friendly and welcoming, nice communal spaces esp kitchen, good-sized double room, and lovely hot shower.

Nothing with the current name of the hotel outside which made it difficult to find on the street, especially with cafe at the front. Window of our room looked onto interior communal area, no outside light so room was stuffy. Could do with more hooks or hangers as nowhere to put clothes.

The location and social amenities were excellent. The price-performance ratio was very compelling. Additionally, the rooms were clean, and all necessary facilities were readily available.

The only drawback I experienced was that the bathrooms are located quite far from the rooms, and there isn't even a sink in the rooms. This can make it challenging to get ready efficiently.

Lovely little place with a cool vibe, cheap and cheerful and exactly what you’d expect from a hostel in a busy city. Staff were helpful and prompt with their service, would recommend.

Not the best sleep due to people coming and going at different times. I also slept underneath some pipe work so I could hear all the water rushing through every time someone upstairs went to the toilet or ran a tap. On the plus side it meant I could hang my wet clothes on the hot pipes and they were dry by the morning!

Water/Canal looking out my window! for someone who works looking at screens for long, that water view out my widow was Awesome!

The hostel is on the canal and has a bra window view of the water! This place is super unique and stylish. For a hostel I rank this place a High 7 and a must stay for solo travelers. However, book a private room. The shared rooms are co-ed and I was not comfortable with sleeping with males. They have the cutest swing and chubby cat! I really enjoyed this ambiance and the women staff.

Co-ed sleeping I was not comfortable with this at all as a female solo traveler

Very nice hostel, there is a huge common room with a kitchen, where you can spend time. Interior design is very cool, the beds in rooms were also very comfortable, each bed had a socket and a small shelf for stuff. In general it was very quiet in the hostel. There are also 2 supermarkets close to the hostel

They really put thoughts into the environment.

I hope they provide ear plugs and can allow check in earlier.

Very cute hostel with a lot of cooking space

Door/ room off main lobby so a bit noiisy

Clean toilet and bathroom body wash and shampoo are provided beautiful common area, which allow you to work Convenient location, close to attractions and the central station

Locker is not provided

Everything

I like the vibe

There is nothing I didn’t like

Comfort, drinks, food, cleanliness, friendliness, helpfulness, location, price - everything was great!

The only slight downfall the the sound of the water through the pipes when sleeping (it sometimes sounds like the water was about to come through the walls).

Guest kitchen, cafe/bar, some outdoor seating, laundry

Bike rental is poor quality

Good location and view from the window, cozy common area, room and bed was comfortable.

Some not very important things. For example, there is nowhere to hang a towel next to the shower.

Great common areas and facilities, also the location is perfect.

/

The location is good

They have bunk instead of pod beds. The beds don't have head pieces, I was sleeping at the top bed and mi pillow felt. I didn't want to move to disturb my roommates. The lockers are super noisy and narrow, if you take something out you make a lot of noise.

Good location

No hot water in the shower and you cannot adjust the water temperature

Overall maintenance is a bit lazy, with noisy doors, no functioning lookers. The power available on each bed is only USB, many phones no longer use this kind of plug, they should make a regular outlet available.

What a cool hostel! Tucked behind the cafe, the hostel has a massive community area, fully equipped kitchen, and outdoor area. The staff was friendly and the hostel was cleaned daily. The rooms were also not half bad. The location of the hostel, while it could be better, is good. It’s close enough to the center, red light district, and central station to reach within fifteen minutes by foot, but far enough away to be safe and quiet. Overall I would stay here again!

I would stay here again if I had the money! Not unique to this hostel are the insane prices for accommodations in Amsterdam. Aside from that, nothing much I didn’t like. Maybe add curtains to the beds and have under bed lockers.

Our room was very comfortable and clean. The facilities are great and the staff were very lovely and accommodating.

The shared bathrooms aren’t great but I guess that’s to be expected.

Nice place, clean, good kitchen with all facilities, nice view

The staff is awesome!!

The communal areas were a real treat, it was quiet, laid back and friendly. Even though I was sharing with 6 other females it was cool, no stress. Bathrooms were kept very clean, as were the other areas, I especially liked the kitchen facilities, there are 2 supermarkets 5 mins away so I had the option of cooking for myself, which was great. And the staff were excellent also x Highly recommend this place.

Honestly I'm trying to think of something I didn't like but can't! I wish I'd tried the bar, happy hour 5-8pm, but that's my bad...lol
