Only a couple of minutes from the tram line. Amsterdam is a very connected city for public transport. Lovely staff, very fluent in English. The shower area in my room needs to be given a more thorough clean, but it was adequate for a couple of nights.

You get what you pay for in regards to the room. We had a very basic 3 bed room which was very clean and did the job. As we were only in Amsterdam for 2 days we only needed something very basic. The thing I liked the most was the self service kiosk in the foyer area meaning you could grab snacks or drinks at any time of night. The staff were very helpful especially explaining how to get into central late at night. The surrounding area is nice and the hotel is very close to transport links such us buses and trams. From the hotel you can walk to Amsterdam Bos in about 20 mins

We recently stayed at Ibis Budget Amsterdam. As expected, the hotel offers a very basic experience, but there were a few drawbacks. The room was quite small and had a noticeable odor. It also didn’t seem freshly cleaned, and we had to request clean towels and rent a blow dryer. Noise from the hallway was also an issue during our stay. While the hotel is affordable, being outside the city center meant spending extra on transportation. In the future, we’ll consider staying closer to the center for more convenience and comfort, even if it means paying a bit more.

Staff were nice on the first day and then became progressively rude after you checked in, the room was dirty with plumping pipes visible, and room maintenance was basically non existent (they didn't empty our bins, or make the bed, so what exactly were they cleaning?). The parking was absolutely terrible! The ticket machine was broken, and we prepaid for the parking, but kept having issues getting into the car park because it was allegedly 'full' when there were clearly spaces available. Seems like this hotel will just make people prepay for parking without actually reserving a space for them. Also, the hotel felt extremely unsafe. Reception was always unoccupied or the receptionists were chatting among themselves, basically anyone could just walk in and take the lift to the rooms with no issue. The back door also was never locked and you could just walk in whenever. The lockers to keep your belongings safe were also broken. Also, you have to pay a deposit to borrow a hairdryer, and if there are none available, tough luck apparently. Lastly, the receptionists straight up lie. We were told there was free hot water (it wasn't, you have to pay for it). Just ridiculous experience overall.
