Very nice location of the hotel, in the city center, however it was in a street that was not very busy so perfect to rest since there is not much noise. Friendly and helpful staff, good breakfast.

Good breakfast option-a bit heavy on meat and cheese but that fits with other experiences in the Netherlands. That said, the offerings were good, including croissants (so much better than in the US).

Perfect. Highly recommend.

Great location - very close to multiple tram/bus stations. Very easy walk to numerous clubs/cafes/restaurants and stores (including a grocery store). Quiet and safe little neighbourhood despite being so close to a bustling part of the city. Safe is super friendly and helpful. My room (solo traveller) was EXTREMELY small - however immaculately clean and comfortable. If I ever came back to Amsterdam, I would absolutely stay here again.

Good location but the hotel itself is quite dated. Small, stuffy room. Linens not too clean. Lousy breakfast. Staff was very nice. Not a good value for price paid.

I gave this a low rating because there were lots of mosquitoes. Its not the hotels fault, i left the window open. However they were aware of the mosquitoes as other reviews say, and if they were aware they could have warned us. Floor and skirting a bit dirty, room had cobwebs and dust on the walls above the bed. Staff were friendly, location is beautiful. could just be a bit cleaner and it would be great

Not worth the price

+ Bustop to airport just "round the corner" + Very helpful and polite staff + Close to museums and the beautiful Vondelpark + Bed was ok + Window can be opened - First room did not have a safetynox and tv did not work - Changed to the another room: shower leaked all day, floor nearby toilet also wet - sink was in the room and the toiletseat was close to the wall, too little room for feet - Toiletries still in three bottles and a soap. To save at leaat environment, there could have been a dispencer. The door by the lock had two holes like somebody had forcefully opened with a tool. To me this was below 3 stars. The room was quite ok, but both rooms bathrooms need quick renovation. Breakfast selection simple but good.
