O hostel em geral fica muito bem localizado, próximo a estação central e rua movimentada com comércios e restaurantes. Contudo, na minha opinião, prática um preço exorbitante para o que oferece. Ficamos em um quarto compartilhado e o valor supera o de cidades muito mais interessantes. Além disso, enfrentamos muito barulho a noite dentro do quarto e hóspedes transando. A limpeza é boa, os chuveiros são razoáveis. Café da manhã bom, mas pelo preço era o mínimo que se esperava. Ah, se prepara para pagar por tudo: toalha por exemplo (por que não incluem logo no valor na reserva?) e uma taxa de turismo surreal. Staffs prestativos e educados. Ponto positivo: bar com preços bons!

Not really enough space in the showers or bathrooms to change, so unless you’re comfy changing in a room with 30 strangers, expect to feel cramped in a bathroom stall. The cupboard next to our double bunk beds would have benefited from either a shelf or a coat hook so you don’t have to pull everything out to get to your bags. Not being able to access the kitchen until midday was a bit annoying, kind of forces you to have their breakfast, which is very good, but it meant we had to leave food in the fridge when we checked out because we couldn’t access the kitchen. Otherwise, the staff were exceptional and friendly, only really had a run in with one creepy guest, the smoking space and the happy room were lovely and created a really zen environment. I just wish there was less hip hop played in the smoking room, not the best playlist to get stoned to.

Out of the two hostels I stayed in Amsterdam, the Flying Pig was so much better of an experience. It was quiet, comfortable, and I felt safe. The front staff was very friendly and I had an easy check-in/check-out experience. Also, my stay reasonably priced for the location. I would definitely bunk here again.

I really liked the location. It's few minutes away from Centraal station. It's close to a lot of attractions in the city. A lot of restaurants and shops around. I had an experience with bed bugs/insects on my second night. The staff responded promptly to my concern. They even helped me moved to a different room and gave me vouchers from breakfast and drinks. They even paid for drying my clothes and ointment. The facility was clean all the time. If you're into making connections to other people, they have social room and bar. Their breakfast is okay- toast, cereals, boiled eggs, juice and coffee. I got mine for free, but wouldn't pay for it and would rather eat out. The bed was okay, and seems clean except for the bed bug experience. I was very cautious every time I lied down though. The torage for personal belongings was a big cage under the bed, and was big enough for my stuff. I wish they had a common room where you can just eat food bought from outside. The staff were very friendly and accomodating. They explained to me their procedures and what was done with the bed bug incidence.

El lugar y la gente que visitamos el lugar hace que te la pases muy bien, el personal que labora ahí es el problema, no sin nada amistosos, no tienen educación no son amables, solo una chica española fue súper chick conmigo y me ayudó en todo hasta la chica que es negra me discriminó por ser latino, cuando le hablé ni siquiera me miró a los ojos y su respuesta a la petición de quedarme un momento a descansar fue, “Ese no es mi problema” y continuó con lo suyo. Si planeas visitar el lugar, no esperes un trato amigable, chica española, tú si sabes cómo tratar a los huéspedes.

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.

I really liked my 3 days in the flying pig. The people that work are very welcoming and nice with you. Of course,I enjoyed some cigarettes in the 420 room. The atmosphere is very cozy. Ideal for backpackers. The area is perfect, you are literally next to everything. The prices are very good. I really appreciate that is lgbtq friendly too. Definetely a yes.

The Hotel was as good as expected. Up to 20 people in one sleeping hall is quite a lot and the beds werent the most comfortable but for the price it was a great experience and there is nothing bad to say. Staff was extremly polite and helpful also when there was an issue

Issue with reservation - Misleading information - Unhelpful Expedia staff First of all, The Flying Pig was a wonderful experience and I quite enjoyed myself and had a comfortable stay. My issue was my experience with Expedia / Misleading information regarding the beds. I am at a lost with Expedia. When the reservation was made, the site listing directly from the Expedia website stated 1 x Double Bunk Bed for 2 guests. When I arrived, reception said it was only one bed for 2 people and didn't include the whole bunk, though the website indicates otherwise; how could I determine the difference? So, my friend had to book a whole other reservation so we could have serperate beds. I contacted Expedia the same day as I made the reservation through them (makes sense right?) I explained the situation and Expedia basically just called the Flying Pig, asked for a refund, they said no, Expedia basically stated that the extent of their effort was done and that it sucks to be me. There was no real recognition of the misleading information on their site, no real customer care or value. All they said is that my experience will help prevent others from going through it. Why do I lose out on over $300.00 as they wouldn't refund the cost of the second guest that didn't get a seperate bed based on their misleading info? I tried to further this inquiry but Expedia merely sent a copy and paste blurb from their e-mail prior and said thanks for choosing them and that they care about us, yadaya.

Hi there,Thank you for your feedback and we're glad to hear that you had a wonderful experience during your stay at the hostel and that you felt comfortable. However, it's unfortunate to hear about the misleading information you encountered with your reservation through Expedia.We want to clarify that we are not directly affiliated with Expedia, but we understand your frustration. It's important that booking platforms provide accurate and clear information to avoid such misunderstandings. It's also unfortunate that their customer service didn't fully address your concerns. Our Yield team is in contact with expedia to ensure they provide the correct information.We appreciate you sharing your experience and invite you to book direct next time for an easier costumer service experience and flexible options.Thank you for choosing The Flying Pig, and we hope your future travels are free from such issues. Safe travels!
