What a great older hotel! The staff was so kind to put us in a high floor room, which in itself was a fun adventure to get to! It was cozy and comfortable and so quiet! I slept better than I had our whole trip. Small room at a great price perfectly situated between the central train station and Dam square- a comfortable walk everywhere we wanted to go. Check in and check out were friendly and efficient!

Showers and washrooms outside the room. It is a dorm inside the city. Cheap and that is what you get for that price. In all honesty; the Amsterdam Marathon was on and all hotel prices were incredibly inflated. You go for cheap, you ride it out. Staff was great though

Great location

Ok cheap hotel, friendly reception staff, great location for the city & station. Rooms not the best, very basic, lots of noise from outside. Very dark shower, light above sink didn’t work, minuscule towel provided, no tv. Get what you pay for I suppose, but adequate.

Ludovic

Liked: Cleanliness

Cheap for its location.

The location of the hostel is cool, as Amsterdam is quite an expensive city. I really appreciated the cleanliness, especially in common facilities (it is so difficult to clean them sometimes). Maybe the toilets should be equiped with automatic lighters as they stayed frequently lit (this problem is less present with the shower room). The stairs are really dangerous, this is a real problem to treat and the hostel does not announce it is not accessible to disabled persons!

This so-called hotel was less than a hostel! No amenities at all! Only bunker beds were provided! Simply a fraudulent offering online! I demand a refund or compensation from you!

Comfortable and clean beds and close to the action and any transportation needs. Cute place but you definitely have to be flexible with what to expect. Sharp rising stairs, wobbly bannisters, no AC, noisy to the street, no TV or water kettle, no cups for drinks.

This is a budget hotel in a very busy area. It is a block from Central Station and a block from the Red Light District. The area is very loud until about 3am. We used a white noise app on the phone to help with the loud voices from the street. However, the staff is very friendly and helpful and the rooms are very clean. The location is good to walk everywhere. Our family of four shared a quad room and enjoyed our stay.
