Location
The best way to find the hostel is to look for Nieuwmarkt - the hostel you will find on one of the side streets leading from the square. When referring to the oldest part of Amsterdam, that means in the middle of the Amsterdam's nightlife. Fairly, if you prefer to stay out of the Amsterdam's very rush, you might favor Shelter Jordaan.
