Hostelworld says
St Christopher’s at the Winston has been recommended by Hostelworld staff as ideal for ‘anyone who wants to stay close to the Red Light district and coffee shops’. This ‘very exciting’ hostel was voted the most popular in Amsterdam at the 2011 Hoscars, and it’s not hard to see why; it includes a bar, beer garden and smoking area, with discounts on food and drink in the bar downstairs. There are daily walking tours and free ear plugs, plus an elevator—an uncommon feature in Amsterdam buildings and useful for carrying heavy luggage.

It was such a nice and welcoming hostel. It was my first time solo traveling and I thought it was the perfect place to stay. The bar made it very easy to talk to and meet a lot of different people. The location as well was pretty central, so I could pretty much walk to everywhere I wanted to go. The staff was also very sweet and helpful. I would definitely recommend staying here:)

The hostel was overall good, but our room looked out onto the loudest street ever and the windows had no sound insulation and so it was pretty impossible to sleep. Overall it was clean and a good bed.

Stayed one night, it was a comfy bed and a good location to everything I wanted to see. Also you cant hear the bar at night which is nice and there is good security between the hostel and bar.

St Christopher's at The Winston says
One of the things that makes our hostel unique is that we invite various upcoming designers to decorate each of our rooms with weird and interesting themes. None of our rooms look the same, and you could be sleeping in a movie-themed room, a psychedelic room or even a sex-oriented room!
We have a very interesting team here at The Winston, with staff from several countries, in several age-groups. It's a nicely mixed bunch of people.
We have the Red Light District in our backyard and lots of coffee shops, restaurants and crazy little shops are around us. Add to that a bar and a nightclub which are in our building on the ground floor, and you have all the ingredients to have a great time in Amsterdam. If you'd like to relax or see the interesting sights in Amsterdam, most options are on walking distance or a few minutes by tram.
