The location of the hotel is excellent right next to the shopping area, which was super convenient. However, the hotel is quite small and there’s no elevator. The stairs are extremely narrow and steep, making it very difficult to carry luggage up. I wouldn’t recommend this place for older guests At first, I was a bit concerned about the interior, as the hallways and common areas look very old and vintage, almost like a time capsule. But I was pleasantly surprised when I got to my room it had been completely remodeled, was spotless, and I even received an upgrade to a triple room, so there was plenty of space.The only real downside was that the room had no air conditioning. It got a little warm at night, and I had to keep the windows open, which made sleep just okay.Overall, I’d recommend this hotel for a short overnight stay if you’re looking for something central and clean. The rooms are very well kept and modern inside, but the narrow staircases and outdated hallways might not make it ideal for a longer stay.The reception staff were friendly and very helpful, which made a big difference.

The staff was so lovely and I didn’t get her name, but the woman that helped us check in checked in on us our whole stay. We felt super welcome as it was our first time in the country!! We would definitely stay again! Also in a super convenient location, with the train station less than a 5 minute walk away. Several fun bars also just a 5 minute walk away!!

The hotel is in a great location. It is right in the middle of the city--walking distance to many sites as well as multiple tram lines and the metro. It is hard to find a room for five so we are always happy to find one that can accommodate us. The hotel was in an older building but was clean and the staff was friendly. No elevator but our room was only up a few steps. The room was a bit cramped. It is a great place sleep but not a place you are going to relax and hang out. Bathroom was a bit on the honor system as the door had a window out to the room that was covered except for the top pane, which was a little odd. Breakfast was included in our package and was great. Typical European breakfast with eggs, bread, cold cuts, juice and coffee. Had Proseco in case you wanted a Mimosa.

Great hotel, nice staff, fantastic location, nice room and good breakfast. Dam square and Amsterdam Central Station are about 10 min walk. Only slight drawbacks are no elevator and narrow staircase, which isnt great if you have a bit of luggage. There is no ac, the top floors get a little warm, but they provide a fan which is suffficent in May. The towels are clean, but getting a bit thread bare and should probably be replaced. These are all minor problems and I would gladly come back to stay again.

Lovely Hotel in City Center

Great hotel situated in a very convenient location within easy walking distance of everything in the city center. The staff were absolutely lovely. I was in a small single room, but even that was perfectly comfortable for my week-long stay in Amsterdam. I imagine the bigger rooms are even nicer. The breakfast was tasty, if somewhat light compared to others I've had at European hotels of this quality. It certainly provided enough to get one going for the day, however. I would definitely stay here again.

4 Night Stay

Such a find! We were there for 4 nights and the front desk staff is so kind and helpful, every single one of them. We had the 3 twin room, canal view and it was lovely. Very clean and everything we needed. Bathroom is tiny but it didn’t bother my daughters and I. Breakfast in the morning is a simple European type breakfast and was perfect to get us started. The location was fantastic, close to tram stops and centrally located for walking. Highly recommend this hotel.

So happy we found this little boutique hotel. We were visiting Amsterdam with our son and girlfriend. Booked a room with 4 single beds, 2 pushed together. Bathroom is small but very functional and clean. Crisp white bedding, Staff was very friendly. Allowed us to check-in early as we arrived. Great location : train station, restaurants, cafes, shopping. Price was very reasonable. Beds comfy, very clean. Good breakfast. Great pizzeria close by and fabulous Irish pub with live music.. Would definitely book again ! It was wonderful !
