A good value

I arrived 6 hours before check-in time, and the staff was happy to check my bags, keep my computer in the (more-secure) back office, and give me a map and directions to the museums so I could keep occupied. Throughout my stay the desk staff was always pleasant and helpful. The room was small but clean, typical of European hotels. When I first got to the room, I was concerned because it was right next to the elevator. No worries, the soundproofing was so good I wouldn't have known the elevator was there. Conveniently located one block from a stop on the tram #16 line. In a quiet neighborhood outside the central area, but only a 25 minute ride from the Central Station in one direction and 15-20 minutes from Vrije Universiteit, where I was visiting, in the other. If you're arriving by tram, the stop is Emmastraat, then walk 1 block back toward the city center. Cabs are outrageous in Amsterdam, but you don't need them.

Shopping tip: Not Applicable

If you're looking for souvenir junk for your kids, and you don't want your 6-year-old walking around with a [*] or sexual innuendo on her t-shirt, you're mostly stuck with trashy ceramic windmills/wooden shoes. If you see something acceptable, snap it up. [...] Whatever. The airport has souvenirs that cater to a wider variety of tastes than most shops in town.

Perfect location

Good location if you want quiet but to still be within walking distance of attractions of Amsterdam. It is only a quick and cheap cab ride to the "City Center".

Shopping tip: Short walk from hotel

for high end boutique shops, it is great. If you want souvenirs and other Amsterdam "favorites" you will have to walk or cab it.
