I found it a great location, comfy beds and nice rooms. I found the showers were quite a small room and hard to share with 8 other people, but other than that it was a great hostel.

Spent 1 night here. Not a bad little spot, awesome location. The bunks were kinda cool, nice solid design. Not great storage but it was enough for 1 night. Decent stay overall

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 earplugs, plus an elevator"an uncommon feature in Amsterdam buildings and useful for carrying heavy luggage.
