Bob's Youth Hostel is in the ideal location for exploring Amsterdam. It is a short walk from the train station, the red light district, canals, the central Dam square, and many of Amsterdam's sights.
The atmosphere at Bob's is very relaxed, but won't suit everybody. Smoking in the common room is a given -- this is Amsterdam after all. However, many of the guests never stop smoking, and the room doesn't have the best ventilation so it can become a thick haze of smoke. Some of the receptionists are very friendly and will help with any queries, but others are more difficult. The hostel is also a pick-up point for a free walking tour.
Dorm rooms are separated in two different buildings. There is the main reception building, and another building around the corner that feels rather detached. There are no common spaces in the second building, although there is a TV in the hallway. The dorm rooms are well heated and are cleaned daily. You are required to leave the room from 10 to 12:30 for cleaning, and cleaners insist that you must leave and are more than happy to wake you up. Sheets are provided, but only a pillow case and fitted sheet. Some of the blankets are quite dirty.
Non-smokers will be pleased that smoking is not allowed in the dorms. Although the dorms are clean, during our stay we still encountered a rat munching on some bread left on the window sill. The bathrooms are also cleaned daily -- perhaps a little too well, with industrial-strength bleach. This is often not mopped up too well and is left in puddles for unsuspecting victims to step in (it will turn socks or pants white). It also leaves a rather unpleasant smell in the unventilated toilets.
Free breakfast is provided daily and consists of tea, bread (often stale), jam, and two eggs. Coffee costs extra. Internet is also available for use in the common room and is pretty cheap.
