Choose another. People who work there are kind of rude. The beds and mattresses are horrible. It only accepts cash and it's a bit far from the center. Pay a little more and choose another one, that's what I'm going to do.

One of the best and cleanest hostels in Amsterdam
Possibly the first hostel in Amsterdam I have no complaints about. It is so simple to achieve a 5 star service but many hotel take a mickey, charge and show no care. From the moment you enter Crossroads Hostel, you step into a clean environment with ample space, tables and benches to wait around, free tea and coffee (yes, free tea and coffee) with milk, sugar and cups. Receptionists were all polite and helpful, when I overhead them dealing with other customers. Their bathrooms are the cleanest I've seen around, well stuff with toiletries including T-rolls, showel gel and shampoos, and air freshers all over the building. Left buggage facility available, 24 hour conciege, late check-in and anytime checkout, €10 refundable deposit for the room keys, and I saw them lend someone a padlock to use. And they kindly allowed non-customers to use their reception restrooms. Highly recommended.

STAY AWAY!!! The place is a dump. There was actual poo on the floor in the restroom off the lobby. When we told them we couldn't stay because if was such a dump, they refused to refund ANY of our money even though we never stayed there.

Not recommended
During the check in they said it was cash only. It was not mentioned before.
The room had an ensuite bathroom this is good.
But the room was dirty, and when they change sheets they drag it on the dirty floor.
I would avoid.

This hostel was the worst place we've ever stayed, a real dump. The room was 2x1m or similar, it was dirty and stank, and there were pubic hairs in my bed (which looked like it had been salvaged from a WWII hospital). The staff are also difficult and rude. Not only did we have to pay cash but when we asked for another sheet for my bed, they didn't want to give it to us! There's also 4 very narrow flights of stairs to the top which makes carrying luggage up really difficult. The WiFi doesn't work either. The toilets & showers are so small (think broom closet) that they are not functional. To summarise: do not stay here!!

I den stora helheten var det ett bra boende. Det jag kan klaga över är frukosten. Den var inte alls bra. Att bli serverad mackor med jordnötssmör, sylt och nutella som enda pålägg är inte bra. Hade jag fått önska hade jag velat ha andra sorters pålägg, kanske juice eller något också

Poor layout
Breakfast includes slices of bread with peanut butter, jelly or chocolate paste. There was no butter. The shower was ok, but did not have a thermostat. We could only find one power outlet on the room for 6 people and it was at matras hight of the top bunk. So if you have a straight adapter it won't fit. Also the light bulb was in front of the bunk bed stairs.

Buy some chairs, please!
Great location and nice receptionists but... coat-stand, chair, table-these are not in the room. That’s very uncomfortable. I had to put my jacket on the floor and put my schoes while sitting on the metal garbage can. Floor in the bathroom very dirty... even after cleaning.

The room was mundane, dirty and smelt.
Staff were rude.
The location was perfect just a shame about the hotel.
They charged us an extra 70 euros when we arrived for possibly one of the most disgusting rooms I've ever stayed in.

Mice everywhere. Staff was nice but sometimes noisy when hanging out in the lobby. No real kitchen, just a microwave. Room was ok, odd smell in the bathroom though.
