Very friendly, helpful and informative staff on reception. Breakfast was varied, tasty and filling with helpful staff. Great location for walking to attractions and very quiet at night. Supermarket for organic goods only 10 minutes walk away, as well as cheap local market and park. Room was basic and clean. I was concerned about sharing toilet and shower outside of... more

The hotel was well situated and provided a good breakfast in the rate. The wireless internet was expensive and would have liked maybe 1 other english speaking channel on the TV other than a news station but we could live with that. The area was safe with every thing in walking distance. Would consider again if returning. more

This hotel is perfectly situated in Amsterdam, near the markets, Art gallerles, cafes, night life and an easy walk to the shops. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful. Explained how we could park our car at a park and ride for 6 euro per 24 hours with a choice of free bikes or free tram tickets. Our room was... more

Very nice place in Amsterdam, maybe the perfect accomodation for people who like to stay in the center of the city but look for a quiet place especially at night. The inside has got something of that featuring neerlandese atmosphere and there's a lift, a very luxury thing in Ams, if you have a room at the top floor, as... more

Positives were friendly and helpful staff, an adequate continental breakfast, proximity to some of the many Amsterdam museums and restaurants, clean rooms with adequate space (we were in what is titled a deluxe double with en suite). Negatives were a lack of hot water one morning (cold shower brrrr), a sink that drained verrrry slowly and being a little further... more

The two of us stayed at this hotel from May 13-15, 2008. It is a short tram ride away from Centraal Station and is located in a quiet part of town. The hotel itself occupies a number of buildings. The room we stayed in was not in the same building as the concierge. Our room was on the top floor... more

Stayed for 4 nights mid May 2008. (was there previously 2 years prior). Still great, friendly staff -- once you get situated in the city, the (long) walk to the city center is beautiful and full of food, beer, shopping and other things Amsterdam-esque ... On a quiet street, clean and safe. However -- I knew I was booking a... more

I stayed here for 2 nights and loved it! The staff is very helpful, always smiling, and really make guests feel at home. My room was comfortable, the bathroom was clean and hot water was plentiful. The TVs and comfy pillows are much appreciated after a long days of sightseeing and museum hopping. (Speaking of which, the location is great!... more

Sure, the room is small and the stairs are steep. Unless you are staying in a higher-end hotel, this is always the case in Amsterdam. The room was very clean. The shared bath was very clean and almost always empty. The view from room 38 was the backyards of residences and the Heineken offices. The breakfast was very filling, but... more

This is a 2 star hotel - so that's what you should expect - but the location was perfect, the staff was extremely helpful and I certainly felt that I got my money's worth. Yes - rooms are small and the building is quite old - but you're in Amsterdam. There is a lift in the building I was in,... more
