We went to this hotel as a young couple and despite the many negative reviews because we don't have many expectations. The rooms were very modern, unfortunately there were a few hairs on the bed linen. After a few minutes it became very hot in the lower rooms, even though it was November. Unfortunately there is no air conditioning either. If you're unlucky, there are loud neighbors on site at the same time who howl like dogs late into the night.Conclusion:Price is good for Amsterdam.Rooms without windows not recommended.

Unfortunately we were very disappointed with the hotel… a room in the basement with no windows etc., far too warm and stuffy even in winter. Plus there was hair everywhere and it wasn't very clean. The staff wasn't really friendly and didn't approach the guest. The cleaning staff was so incredibly loud that unfortunately you couldn't sleep after 6:30 in the morning; everything was generally very noisy. The room also smelled really bad, like weed and sewage. Generally very dissatisfied, what a shame! The only good thing was that it had good connections to the city etc.

It is true that the reviews for this hotel are negative, but we have not seen any disadvantages that have been written. The room was clean, although the bathroom is small but does the job very well. The bed was less comfortable. The hotel is very well located near a Vondelpark and opposite a tram/bus stop.

My wife and I came on vacation for a couple of days. See the city, walk the streets, museums. I didn't expect anything supernatural for that kind of money. Sleep, wash and continue walking.

It's a nightmare. The hotel is located on the first two floors of a multi-storey residential building, where mainly grass lovers live. People smoke outside the windows almost 24 hours a day. Some of the windows in the building are blocked with plywood. The rooms do not have air conditioning. There is a highway nearby, so there is noise from cars around the clock. Breakfast - dry food. The only hot food is tea/coffee and they can boil eggs. I don't recommend it.

The hotel is okay. We booked a double room for 3 nights. It was on the first floor with a window facing the noisy main street. The staff was reserved but friendly, the reception was manned at any time we came/left (even at 2 a.m.).Our room was furnished with very used furniture, lots of flaws, open corners and the room's door lock had already been broken out and stuck back in place. A lamp on the bed was broken, there was only a bedside table for the double bed, but a stool, table, kettle, wardrobe and a safe. Luckily the floor wasn't carpet but laminate, because the carpet in the hotel hallway and stairwell was already very dirty and stained.The mattress was a bit sagging but we felt it was still comfortable and we slept well. However, one of the pillows was full of short hairs, but when we asked at reception we were given a new one straight away.The bathroom, on the other hand, was critical. The silicone joints in the shower were clearly dirty and the toilet seat on the toilet was crooked. Equipped with shampoo, soap, hairdryer and towels but not a particularly good splash guard for the shower and you also had to pick up the shower head because it could no longer be adjusted without the fitting falling apart. The worst thing, however, was the smell coming from the drains. Strong smell of feces and sewage that was also in the room when you came back. The bathroom door could be locked from the inside but could no longer be closed from the outside, which meant that the smell kept coming into the room. That was really disgusting for the price.Windows are simply glazed. In the fall it was actually rather warm in the room, but it could be really hot in the summer. There was no air conditioning visible to us.It was also very noisy, we sometimes woke up to the coughing of the neighbors or the cleaning staff in the morning.The tram went directly from the station at the hotel to the city center. There are beautiful parks in the area through which you can walk to the center within 40 minutes.On the whole, I wouldn't book here again because of the high price, but considering that you only spend a short amount of time in the hotel, it was okay.
