Perfektes Konzertfeeling mit laufender Harrymusik und Camping Feeling ohne draußen zu sein.
Pros:

Alles war absolut perfekt - sehr sauber, super freundlich und entgegen einiger Bewertungen empfanden wir den Aufenthalt als sehr ruhig, man muss sich einfach vorher bewusst sein, dass dies ein offener Raum ist. Allerdings gilt eine Nachtruhe ab 23 Uhr, sodass es wirklich super zum Schlafen ist - für alle anderen liegen aber auch Ohrenstöpsel bereit. Fußläufig gibt es in zwei Richtungen Metrostationen mit denen man in ca. 10 Minuten in Amsterdam Centraal ist.

Cons:

Nichts zu bemängeln.

Ich komme wieder!
Pros:

Liebevoll gestaltet, etwas Besonderes, sehr sauber. Unser „Zimmer“ war sehr gemütlich und das Personal äußerst zuvorkommend und freundlich.
Nur wenige Stopps von der Johan Cruyff Arena entfernt.

Peaceful stay where I could meet people and have fun
Pros:

It is a very interesting concept of having small houses inside a building where the guests reserve a “small house” instead of reserving a bed in a big room for several beds like in traditional hostels. It was very clean, with board games included and also keep guest’s privacy

Parfait et original !
Pros:

Le concept original, le confort de la literie, la gentillesse du staff. La propreté des espaces communs. La proximité avec le stade. Concert proche à pied, absolument parfait! Le parking proposé pour 15€ la journée. La gare centrale accessible en 20min de tram.

Cons:

Rien.

Très fun et insolite ❤️‍🔥
Pros:

Honnêtement que du positif, c’est original, chaleureux, propre, fun et super accessible, 5 minutes du métro c’est super vraiment. On a vraiment bien dormi, les gens sont pour la plupart respectueux des règles de communauté et de propreté. Super de proposer des snacks et boissons à acheter, et que l’eau soit facile d’accès près des petites habitations.

Je recommande vraiment si vous êtes un peu fan d’insolite et prêt à quand même vivre dans une petite surface, bien que vraiment pas cher pour la ville ! Egalement parfait pour aller au stade Johan Cruijff ArenA, 17 minutes c’est clairement génial pour les concerts !

FONCEZ !!!!!

Cons:

Rien 😋

Pros:

Originali vieta, patogus susisiekimas - nesunku atvykti tiek iš oro uosto (Schipol), tiek vykti į centrą. Dušai, tualetai bendri, tačiau individualūs, tvarkingi. Personalas paslaugus.

Cons:

Kempingas viduje vis tiek yra kempingas - nors vakarėliai griežtai draudžiami, iš kaimyninių "kambarių" girdisi durų varstymas, kalbėjimas ir t.t. Outside Inn pagalvoję ir apie tai - kambaryje palikti ausų kamštukai, rekomenduoju pasinaudoti.

Außergewöhnlich, nett, gemütlich, freundlich.
Pros:

Das Personal war sehr freundlich. Im Gesamten ein sehr schönes, außergewöhnliches Hotel das auf jedenfall eine Übernachtung wert ist.

Cons:

Die Duschen waren ungewohnt aber dadurch dass es transparent dargestellt wird, dass es Gemeinschaftsduschen gibt, kann man sich darauf einstellen.
