We were forced to spend one night in room 111 which had black mould growing around the A/C vent. What made matters worse was the fact the room like all the other bedrooms was hotter than an oven, with no ventilation or relief from the AC. Our window didn't even open so we were melting all night and had to keep.opening our bedroom door to let cool air in from the corridor.Room 111 is a health hazard.Also the room was tiny with no where to put oursuitcase, so it blocked the entrance to the bathroom and there was nowhere for our clothes except for a small wardrobe with a couple of hangers.i cannot believe they expected a couple to stay there for a week. Cmon.We were moved to a different room that did have a least some floor space between the bed and the wardrobe for a suitcase. It appeared to be mould free but the walls were definitely damp. Again no existent AC so when we were in the room we had to keep our door wedged open to let cool air in.On the second day, cleaning staff just let themselves into our room - didn't knock or anything before bursting in. Like WTF, we were both in bed right opposite the door.Luckily we hadn't planned to spend much time in the room.I'm giving them one star for moving us and for the fact they had a coffee machine in the lobby. No milk mind you, just powder smh.Great location but you need to fix the mould issue - it's unsafe and you can't expect your guests to be exposed to that - and invest in some clothing storage or something for people staying longer than a few days.

Stayed 2 nights in March. Amazing location, within walking distance to a wide variety of places and attractions. Rooms were nice and clean and the minimal staff was always friendly and willing to help.

I had an awful experience at the Iron Horse. The hotel itself is located in a good spot and the room was nice. The service I experienced from the lady working at the front desk and the maid service was atrocious and ruined my whole stay. The night before I checked out I was sent an email with an option for online checkout. I filled out the form and it gave me a drop down list of times when I would like to checkout so I proceed to choose 1-2pm. The next morning we had a man enter our room twice without our permission asking when we are leaving. Then when I went to checkout I was informed by the lady at the front desk that I would have to pay a late checkout fee. I explained my situation and the form I filled out online and then she proceed to tell me that doesn’t matter and 11am is a standard checkout at all hotels. I felt like I was talking to a robot. Zero compassion or understanding and gave me the impression this wasn’t the first time she has done this. I would avoid this place at all costs.

Very affordable hotel where everything is within a 25 minute walk, (city center and the Jordaan district). Nice room with the only downside: the pillow, which was not very comfortable. I definitely recommend :)

It is a convenient location for sightseeing, a 15-minute tram ride from Central Station and a 7-minute walk. There is a supermarket nearby. The room was spacious enough and clean. …

Nice stay, small rooms with little ventilation. Excellent location, you can reach any point in the city by walking.

I wasn’t looking for a fancy hotel, but this place was worse than I imagined. I specifically booked this place because it said they had air condition, but it didn’t even work. Our room felt like an oven with no air circulation at all. There was no window to open and no way to cool down the room or get any fresh air besides to prop to door open to the public. The air condition vent was lined with BLACK MOLD.On top of that the front desk staff was aggressive and rude. The hotel didn’t have a refrigerator for hotel guests to keep their medication in. The curved glass shower door got stuck every time you tried to move it. If you want to sleep in a stale and stuffy room that is hotter than summer with black mold, then this is the place for you.

Location is really great, rooms are ok. It was one of the less expensive options, still expensive though and for the price I have had a lot nicer hotels somewhere else…but for amsterdam standards I guess it has good price/value.

Since I discovered this place I keep staying here whenever I am in Amsterdam. The staff is always kind and helpful. They let you drop off your luggage before check-in so you can start exploring the city without worrying about carrying stuff with you. The rooms are clean and quiet, you don't get the noise from the streets. The location is also great, you are super close to public transportation if you decide to use it, but you won't need to, because at less than a 15 minute walk you are already at the city center. Honestly, for the location, price is really good, considering how close you are to everything. If you chose to not go towards the city center, you can explore the other streets nearby, where you will find many restaurants and other businesses.

Hotel with an excellent location! The staff in the lobby were very friendly and competent! The rooms are a bit old, various problems including dust, water falling from the air conditioners (later repaired), remote control without a locking door, water barely flowing into the sinks... in short, various flaws even if not gigantic! However, I would go back again for the location and the price/quality ratio is fair enough

This is an address to recommend! Excellent location, central, close to all amenities and quiet. We only moved on foot and by bike once we arrived.We booked through the hotel's website the same day. We had taken an option for a late check-out, but as we were fine, we stayed one more night and the hotel was kind enough to reimburse us for the option.The price is very reasonable for Amsterdam. Very satisfied! I hope you continue like this :)
