Hotel room stinks so bad, the matresses and pillows had yellow stains all over them. The walls are paper thin. You cant open the curtains or the windows bc youre next to the sidewalk and theres people smoking there all day. When you take a shower the water goes everywhere, literally the whole bathroom was soaked, toilet, sink, floor, everything. They use the entrance for dirty laundry? When you get to the hotel you have to check in at another location, theres a 50 euro deposit, they said that the refundable depost would take 24 hours and i still dont have it back.

If you only have the budget for this hotel, it is better not to travel. You can't even walk in the room. The dirty carpet full of stains. We found pieces of nail on the carpet. It does not have windows and if it does, they cannot be opened.A disaster, they should close it for dirty.

If you have a limited budget I recommend it, however it is not the best, the only saving grace is the location which is close to everything, however the mattresses and pillows are not at all comfortable, in addition to the fact that the reception is located in another hotel a few meters away, If you have nothing further ahead but I would recommend another hotel, I would not return

The only good thing about this accommodation is its location. For the rest, it should be illegal for it to be working.The “official” photos are not real, they are not of the accommodation they offer.Completely unhealthy. And I don't choose that word just because, it's because staying there actually threatens anyone's health. I regret not having read the reviews sooner.It is cheap and well-located accommodation, but believe me, those are not enough reasons to choose it. I already learned.The bathroom flooded, the dirt in the room and throughout the building was incredible. Although the staff is friendly, they do not resolve and do not seem to care about the filth they make you live with. I went all over the city looking for a spray disinfectant to use on the bed sheets... I don't think I need to give more details.There is no ventilation, no cleaning or maintenance… I killed more than one spider during my stay. They should close it.

Tired hotel which despite a really good location is not really worth it.Everything is half done and this is more at hostel level, but barely there either.

So I'll start by saying; If you want luxury, theres a Waldorf Astoria down the road. However if you want a place to store luggage and sleep, read on.The Aston City hotel is located right on the edge of the city centre, around an hours walk from the Central Station, but if walking isn't your thing there is a Metro station and a tram stop within 3 mins walk.On arrival you will be asked to pay the City Tax (5 Euro at the time of writing), and a 50 Euro security deposit. This didn't come out of the blue for us as helpfully the hotel E-mailed and informed us a week ahead of time. It's worth noting at this point that to check in you need to go to the Blossom's City Hotel a few doors down.Where if you arrive before your room is ready they will store your luggage.If you don't do well with stairs then you would be best staying somewhere else as there are no lifts here. Our room was on the 3rd floor up a steep winding staircase, which really could have done with a lick of paint, and attention from a plasterer.Once in the room it was clean, tidy and functional, with a full bathroom, comfy beds, and a large bay window. The only negative I could find was that the carpet seemed a little tired, and in need of replacement.To conclude for £45 GB a night, that close to the centre of Amsterdam you can do so much worse. For those that go on holiday to experiance the area and not live in the hotel it's cheap, and functional.

The hotel was dirty, the hallway had a stale smell and some of the towels had holes in them. When we first checked in we had a room without a window (you can imagine how bad it smelled). After that, we talked to the receptionist and she moved us to a better room, but we had to pay €30.To their credit, tho, the bathroom was clean and fairly new. There is no reception at the hotel, so you have to walk for 2 minutes to the Blossoms Hotel. The receptionists were very nice and helpful, which definitely made the experience better. The only good thing about this hotel is the location, but it is not enough. I would not recommend that anyone stay at this hotel, because your trip might be ruined.

Do not stay at this hotel at any costs,This is the state to find the rooms in please see photos before booking this is the state of the beds. This standard is below normal, a hostel is more clean than this. No matter the price thinking your going to save staying here you are in for a horrible mistakeThere is a horrible smell in this hotel, one that makes you gag and not want to stay in the room

Absolutely Horrible ExperienceThis hotel was an absolute disaster. It was nonrefundable, and the reality didn’t match the advertisement at all. The room was of very low quality, with a disgusting smell, the hairdryer didn’t work, and there was no internet connection as promised. The staff were extremely unfriendly and unsupportive, especially the so-called “manager” (a very unfriendly lady) who ignored my complaints about the false advertising and even insulted me. I left two nights earlier because it was unbearable. I’ve filed an official complaint and will ensure they don’t treat others like this. Avoid at all costs!

This hotel doesn't look like in photos.The Aston hotel is disgusting place. Don't stay there, because it will spoil your trip for sure.The room was very-very dirty, the sheet was very dirty with yellow places and stains, also I saw a fresh dry liquid from someone's nose, and blood stain on the blanket.The towels also wasn't fresh, with dirty stains.The only thing is view and not bad location.In hotel no reception, and no possibility to call, because there is no phone in the room. In the room there is no nothing: no chairs, no bedtable or table, no kettle, no glasses...Also they took a deposit 50 euro for this, then back it.Also the Wi fi wasn't very bad. It worked only in blossom hotel, in Aston not. They told that router is old and that's why it can't work well.There was absolutely no desire to stay in this hotel longer and we checked out earlier than can.I really don't suggest to you to stay this hotel, if you want to keep your nervous, mood and also money. Because in Amsterdam you can find much more better hotels on the same price.

This is a very awful hotel. Don't stay there. 1/10.The hotel is really very old, but it's not a problem if you clean and repair things on time. But they don't.The room was very dirty, the sheet was very dirty with yellow places and fresh dry liquid from someone's nose.The towels also wasn't fresh.The only good was the view from the window on a canal, but it's not enough to cover imagination after dirty bed.The door wasn't close inside. Also they took a deposit 50 euro, they took it back after check out.The reception is on the blossom hotel, where we foubd fresh sheet, good girl on reception, funny cat in lobby and hot water (in room in Aston there was nothing, no kettle, no chairs)Also the Wi fi wasn't very bad. It worked only in blossom hotel, in Aston not. They told that they need a time for repairing, but router is old and that's why it can't work well.

Cheap and you get what you pay for. Then there is an addition of €3.75 in tourist tax + €50 in deposit which they want in cash.
