Editorial
Hotel overview
Set in a bustling area of Amsterdam’s Canal Ring, this straightforward hotel offers simple rooms and dormitory-style accommodations, all with shared bathrooms. Its unassuming style matches the practical traveler who values a clean, quiet place with essential amenities rather than luxury.
The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming, with a team dedicated to maintaining cleanliness. Free breakfast is provided, described by guests as homely and satisfying—an ideal way to start exploring the nearby historic sites.
While it lacks extras like a fitness center, pool, or private parking, the location is the strongest asset. A short walk leads to Amsterdam Centraal and top attractions like the Anne Frank House, Rijksmuseum, and Van Gogh Museum, making it perfect for cultural discovery on foot.
Travelers should note the steep stairs and the absence of accessible facilities, which may require some consideration. Quiet nights and comfortable beds come recommended, with a cozy, lived-in vibe enhanced by a resident cat and welcoming hosts.

“Great place to stay. Very welcoming, clean, amazing breakfast and perfect location !”
“A perfect hostel with an unbeatable location, kept completely clean and tidy by friendly owners. A place with history and a real countercultural vibe. This is the hostel you always hope to stay in, but don’t believe really exists anymore - It really does start to feel like home.”
“I REGRETTED i booked another place for my 3rd day, it's been done and paid, cant change, dont like it. I had such peaceful time staying at My Home. It doesnt come with a lounge / living room open late for u to chill like other hostels, also no lockers, stairs a bit steep, but that's just some mini cons. The host lady she is so lovely, she makes nice simple breakfast for you, she makes sure everything neat and tidy, included your washrooms / shower rooms and new towel on your bed which all hostels here they charge for it. The place so near Amsterdam Centraal. Everything not smelly, clean, warm blanket, heater works so well in the room, there is towel for you, shampoo and shower gel as well, breakfast feels so homely, and a cute kitty. Prices and location are just unbeatable. Gosh im laying here in another place wanting to go back there hahahaa Defo visit her home again next time wish you well and business more blooming”
“The gem in the heart of Amsterdam. We were a group of three. The host was amazing and location very accessible specially for to reach after your late night round about. Breakfast was simple and good. Warning the steps are quite steep and narrow similar to other stays in Amsterdam. Sleep was quiet peaceful and toilets where small but tidy. We had stayed for 3 nights and will definitely recommend for people to stay in city centre.”
“I would like to say thank you to the team. They were always kind, friendly and helpful. The hotel location is perfect to hang out. We always walk to centraal, it was around 10mins.”
“Great location with shopping so close and easy access to the station. Lovely people and free breakfast was delicious.”
“Probably one of the cleanest hostel I’ve ever stayed at. The street where it’s located is full of interesting venues. Comfy bed. The walk to Centraal takes about 10 mins, I left at 4 in the morning and it was safe. On top of all, Chris was extremely friendly! :)”
