Hostel The Golden Stork

I had a really nice stay there. The hostel is close to both the train station and downtown which is very convenient for a short stay. All the Facilities were clean and the staff nice and polite. Overall a good experience. Just, mind bringing a lock with you to close the lockers in the room.

I stayed at the “Golden Stork” for one and a half month while studying in The Hague. Like many other guests pointed out, the hostel has both positive and negative aspects: its position is good (5 minutes away from the city center; 10 minutes from The Hague central station; 15 minutes from The Hague university of Applied sciences. The bathrooms and toilets are very clean (they get cleaned every day at noon) and almost every member of the staff is helpful and dedicated. Regarding the aspects that could be improved, I would definitely recommend enlarging the showers (and maybe add a small chair/stool for your clothes while showering). The rooms have no window which makes them stinky and hot; there is an air conditioner always on, but it doesn’t help much. There are always lots of people coming and going so it is the perfect place to make new friends. One last advice, it is obvious that the more bed there are, the better it is, but the space in the bunk beds is really narrow, I’d rather have only two spots (and not three) but a more comfortable environment.

The second hostel I stayed at in Den Haag. When I came here, I only planned to stay one night and then leave... but the quality of the hostel, and character of the people, inspired me to stay in the city another night. Come and enjoy for yourself!

The advantages of this place are very nice staff and the great location. Except of these things, experience in this hostel was really poor. It’s really dark in the room, you cannot see anything when light is on. The room was dirty, the floor was sticky and the toilet was in a bad condition as well. Sad, because investing in better bulbs is not a huge cost at all.
