    It was a bit hot. The old guy working nightshift was a complete douchbag, i lost my keycard, and he busted my balls for 15 minutes straight, calling me a «stupid idiot» and that I have to «learn how to behave like and adult and not like a lilttle kid», and cursing me out right in my face before giving me a new keycard. I hope you drown in the canal old man. All other staff were great tho :)

    Great place for the price, clean and nice.

    There was no lift, but we didn't see it as an issue or much inconvenience for us.

    The staff were accommodating and there was free breakfast. The hotel's location is also convenient as it was just minutes from the central station, although we haven't checked earlier that it was located in the Red Light District. However, contrary to previous reviews of having noises outside from other visitors at night, it was actually quiet on our part even though we were facing the street or canal.

    The hotel Breakfast was the only disappointment and really not worth getting up for otherwise excellent service and I would definitely use torenzicht on my next trip

    Location was as good as it gets & the hotel staff were unbelievably helpful-friendly and their knowledge of the area was priceless as it was our first time in the city.

    Value for money for light travelers wanting a central location.

    Communal bathroom but that is to be expected. The room has a small sink though. No lifts, climb a series of narrow winding stairs to reach your room. Narrow as only one person can pass at any one time. Not suitable if you have big and heavier luggage.

    Good location although its in the red light district. Families with small children need to be prepared to explain why there are scantily clad women dancing in the red light windows. Near to several major train/metro lines, close to food and shops. Bathroom has good pressure and warm water Breakfast was the same continental breakfast everyday..

    The price is really high compared to the facility. BUT it’s because I was there for king’s day

    Best part there is the guy named Mark! He’s from britain but works there for 7 years now. But he said he’s leaving at the end of april ☹️

    Even though the price paid was not too high, the building is old, and needs some renovation work. Curtains didn't cover the full windows and you could hear a lot of noise from the streets due to bad isolation, so it was difficult to sleep.

    The hotel is perfectly located for a night out in the center of Amsterdam (Red Light District). It has a bar with cool staff as well.

    Breakfast only served egg bread ham but was still very nice. It’s location is red light s District will is good because it’s close to central station literally 5/10 minute good value for money

    The stairs up to the rooms are VERY steep and depending which floor you are on there's quite a lot to climb. I was on the top floor and the stairs are not ideal if you go in and out of your room a lot.

    Stayed here for 2 days, the staff were very friendly. Location was great. Rooms are basic but clean and beds were comfortable, decent WiFi and complimentary breakfast. Always hot water for the shower with good water pressure

    The stairs to get to the room ( it was on the third floor). The hotel is a bit old and needs a little renovation. The breakfast was ok , but I missed something sweet or fruit.

    Very good location at the centre of Amsterdam. A short walk from many attractions. The room was very basic , but it was quiet and the beds were confortable. The staff was helpful and nice
