There is no lift and my room was on fifth floor. The bathroom with attached toilet was stinking all the time. The hotel was also stinking bad. The staff arranged for a change of bedsheet & towel because the one we got were dirty. I couldn't use the blanket it was really old and had a stench. They also allowed us to store luggage after checkout, so I was able to roam the city freely. I wouldn't recommend it for someone who cares about hygiene.

Staff were friendly but the building is in dire need of refurbishment. The doors, stair carpets and foyer all quite dirty and dated. The room itself, basic. Bed was comfortable but lining, inside pillows and mattress were all stained. Carpets in the room were also stained. The bathroom seemed as though it has recently been updated so was fine. No sound insulation to the room and as my room backed onto the stairwell, incredibly noisy.

Budget friendly hotel, can't complain for the price compared to other hotels in Amsterdam. Check in is at another hotel a couple of doors down, not a problem at all. The check in was quick and easy, with friendly staff, a deposit is taken in cash for all guests but is returned at check out in cash. The actual hotel had a vending machine in hallway which was good. The hallway had a bad smell but was clean. The room was small but clean, usual for budget hotels so no problem. Double bed with plug sockets on one side, large window onto the Main Street, walk in shower and storage for bags. About an 30 min walk to Dam Square down one main road with shops, bars etc. Overall, I would stay again as a good budget by option.

Cheap but worth shortfalls for central location.

We booked this hotel because of the really central location for the price, and the reviews on hotels.com weren't too bad but after booking I looked at google reviews and was horrified as they were much worse. We were so worried after that because of reports of bedbugs and dirty rooms etc but after arriving it was actually fine for the price and location, you get what you pay for. The room was dirty round the edges but the bed linen was clean and we checked the mattress for signs of bedbugs but didnt find anything. The mattress did have some stains but it was comfy enough. Our twin room had a balcony and we could see some mattresses and bed bases discarded out the back so I assume they did deal with the bedbug issue. The bathroom was very small but looked like it had been done up more recently than the rest of the room and was fine for a 3 night stay. Everywhere was walkable within 30 mins and it is right next to the Heineken experience! The lady at hotel reception who checked us in was lovely and the other hotel you have to check in is literally 30seconds away from aston city. If you are happy with a basic room and arent too fussy to get a great budget trip for a fraction of the price of other central hotels then I recommend.

Don't make the same mistake I did. The only time I forget to read reviews. Firstly the check in reception wasn't even at the same hotel The hallway and stairs to our room were so dirty, there was carpet stains everywhere as well as in our room In our room there were stains on the floors and walls, the hairdryer didn't work, the shower leaked out the sides, there was a window showing the hallway, you could hear every conversation from people coming up the stairs And the worst thing, bed bugs. I was making the bed and there was one just chilling there I have photo proof of everything. Don't stay in this hotel

There were a lot of poor reviews but I thought it was good value for money. Clean enough, great location next to the Heineken brewery, plus walking distance to the city centre and a few blocks from my favourite drinking area called Leidseplein. Would've been nice to have a kettle to make tea, but i liked it.
