Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Hotel room was cramped, muggy and hot. There were chips in the paint. Rust on the towel warmer. Grout in the shower was dirty. Shower did not drain properly. Room smelled heavily of perfume. Tried to change rooms but none were available. Had a terrible sleep - woke up with blood shot eyes and decided to check out. Was told manager would follow up, has not. Had to book an alternate hotel for remainder of our stay in Amsterdam.

The staff is amazing there. Alperen who works in the front is awesome. You can ask him many different questions about tourism there and he will tell you where to go. He even helped us find a chocolate store there that locals know about. This place is super clean and there are so many public transportation within a 5 minute walk.

I couldn't rate this hotel high enough! Even from before we landed, I received an email from the hotel letting me know if I had any questions which was well received given there were going to be train strikes when we landed. They suggested a bus transfer which was actually much more convenient as it stopped at the top of the street! Hotel is week placed in a quiet area but literally 5 mins from beautiful eateries and shops. Staff were fantastic, nothing was ever too much bother. There were facilities for holding your luggage and free tea and coffee in the very clean and pleasant reception. I have already recommended this hotel to others and will definitely be starting here if we come back.

Staff was friendly, and offered accommodating luggage storage. Room was a bit weird, had a light switch right behind my pillow on the bed so if I moved wrong I'd turn the lights on while trying to go to sleep. Nice location though, esp if you are going for the museums.

Great staff but needs revamp

Staff were all 10/10, especially Ale who moved my room to a lower floor due to mobility issue. Unfortunately lift was broken entire time we were there so still had to climb 4 flights of very steep stairs and come down again. The bed sagged in the middle due to being 2 singles pushed together but mattresses not equal height. Had backache after 1st night but by pushing everything tightly together and tightly fitting the sheet it was a bit better. No powerpoints by the beds, rooms very clean but overall needs repainting, and new carpets as stains on walls, also grouting dirty and chipped in shower. It was quite expensive for what it was. I also think that staying here in hot weather especially on 2nd or 3rd floors wouldn't be great, as although rooms have a fan, they are opposite wall from bed so not that effective. So if you are looking for great staff and a budget hotel and don't mind climbing loads of steep stairs it is a good choice. As much as I liked the staff, I wouldn't stay here again.
