Brasdorp, who is of Surinamese origin, has worked as a Marketer for most of her life, but she he wanted a change. The main reason was that she wanted to do something creative and have a job that involved lots of interaction with people. Brasdorp worked as a Marketing Executive for American Express and for several other big companies in the Netherlands.
After brainstorming she decided to start a hostel. Because there wasn’t a hostel for women yet in Amsterdam she thought that it would be a good idea to offer women and girls a safe, beautiful, fun and clean place to stay in Amsterdam.
Hostelle is a hostel especially designed for women and equipped with beautifully decorated rooms designed by various artists. It's ideal for female travellers with a small budget and it's only a 15 minute ride away from the Central Station Amsterdam.

This sounds like a great idea! Do you know if there is expected to be a hostel for men only opening any time soon!? I spend much of my time on Prague city breaks with friends and I always stay in hostels! Its much for fun especially if you are young.
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to share my experience in this hostel.
ReplyDeleteI only spent one day&night there when I was on my way to Curaçao but I had a great time.
The receptionists are very welcoming and the decoration is very trendy/classy/unique. Showers and bathroom were very clean comparing to other places I went to before. As a woman, you feel very safe too. I didn't have the chance to see the owner but I can say that is a wonderful idea. Also, I love the location: Bijlmer, the black neighborhood. She's showing a nice example of entrepeneurship and woman empowerment to the community.
it is one of the best example of humanity and a pleasent gesture hats off for this lady.
