It’s a wonderful place to stay, as the name says hotel, not hotel. That’s what makes it very unique. I have stayed in a similar place before few times around the world. But what make this place unique is the member who works there? Specially, this new manager, Tamara, she’s absolutely very, very kind person. The moment I have arrived, she had my room key ready for me. The check-in process was only a few minutes and very nicely. She explained to me about the entire facility. When I walk into my room, I see this beautiful welcoming handwriting by them sitting on the bed. It made me very happy. So I highly recommend this place.!!!

Watch the tramcar please

The Hotel not hotel is a very unique experience for stays in a great neighborhood in Amsterdam. The hosts were all very nice and helpful. They even offer an option to check in early for a small fee which was great because I was very jetlagged after I landed. I stayed in the Tramcar and the room was so charming. It stayed pretty cool too. Just be mindful of the curtains as it's all windows. It is more like a hostel as the tramcar does not have a bathroom but it's situated right next to the main shared bathroom that is well kept. Would definitely stay here again for a short visit!

Our stay was terrible. We stayed from June 7 to June 14. We booked the blue house downstairs for four people 1 double bed bed and 2 twin beds, when we open the door of our room, this is not what we expected, NO TV, NO air conditioning, they have 2 fan on the walls that it was more than a heather than a fan because the air was hot not cold and we told the person at the front desk, also NO table, NO microwave, 1 window with a curtain and the curtain had problem to close it, never again I will book at that hotel. We told the person at the front desk that this is not what we expected when we booked it online, really disappointed.

Our stay at this Amsterdam hotel was extremely disappointing. When we arrived, we were given the wrong room, and staff said there was “nothing they could do.” The room was inside reception—our windows (including one in the bathroom) looked directly into the lobby, with no privacy even with the blinds closed. We overheard another guest also complaining about a lack of privacy. Eventually, we were told we’d need to switch rooms multiple times during our stay—one night in the first room, two nights in another, then two more nights in a third. This was inconvenient, but we agreed to avoid staying in the first awful room. The check-out/check-in process was chaotic and slow, and the staff didn’t even know where the new room was. We were eventually put in the room we originally booked, but were told the door had to be stripped due to mould—hardly reassuring. The room was tiny, dirty, and in terrible condition. The sink leaked, the shower was broken and held up with a mouldy rubber band, and the lock on the door kept sticking. Worst of all, there were bedbugs, no shelves or storage, and one night a man was lingering near our room, which felt unsafe. We left after 2 nights (originally booked for 5), and reception didn’t ask why or seem to care. Only positive: decent location with tram access. Otherwise, this was one of the worst hotel experiences we’ve ever had.

Stayed in the tram which was a cool experience knowing it used during the 60s and 70s in Amsterdam! But second night in we woke up with bed bug bites and found them around the bed..completely gross and painful. Workers were nice enough but they need to fix the bed bug issue!!
