The hotel is located a few tram stops south of Amsterdam Zuid, which makes it convenient to travel into the city or to make a connection at a major train line. It's one building behind the main street so there were no issues with noise. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The hotel is a bit dated, but you can tell the management trues their best with what they have. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, but there were just a few minor issues. The double bed really was just two singles put together, the mattress was a bit hard, and there was just a simple, single quilt cover. A couple of power points at the desk were unstable, but still worked with a bit of effort. The internet was flawless. Breakfast had some decent offerings of fruit, cereal, meats, cheeses, juices, and coffee. The lobby also contained a small bar and you could receive a free drink coupon if you opted out of the daily room cleaning. For an affordable option south of city and away from crowds, this was a good option.
