    Noisy people around the outside of the hotel,to all hours of the night. Area had overgrown weeds and not maintained by city councils properly. A few homeless people sleeping on benches near to the hotel.

    Location to Dam square and city centre. Room size was excellent. Very spacious. No tea making facilities in the room but coffee and Tea was always available in the lobby.

    For those with accessibility needs, the entrance to the hotel is via stairs. For those who are sensitive to noise - you can hear noise in the room coming from the floor above or from the hallway. The room had no closet. No air-conditioning at the room.

    The location of the hotel is excellent. The room was good sized and quite clean. The breakfast was decent. The staff were supportive, and tried to solve issues occurred.

    On arrival, I found the receptionist was very rude and abrupt, and they struggled to find the booking. I was then asked to pay, and when I questioned this, as I was under the impression the hotel would take the money directly, again she was rude and abrupt. This really spoiled our visit. The hotel is not good for those with mobility issues, as there are steps down to the hotel entrance and steps to and from the breakfast area and refreshments area. I found the bed uncomfortable.

    The hotel is in a quiet location, the room was large and although they did not have air conditioning fans were provided. Having a fridge was very handy. In the reception area, you can refill your water bottle and make hot drinks. The hotel is very close to Dam Square, shops and cabals. The tramline is across the road, making it quick and easy to visit museums, and other areas of the city.

    I didn’t realize there is no air conditioning. I am very sensitive to heat. It was really hot weather for a few days. They were amazing and changed my room for the first floor that was cooler. They do have fans in every room

    Staff is very friendly. Clean hotel. Great breakfast.

    Amsterdam short break - wonderful!

    Only three things I didn't like about our room. 1. Located at the front of the building and we had trouble sleeping due to noisy revellers late into the night, not ideal. 2. No air-conditioning and it would get rather hot in the room by end of the day. Couldn't open windows due to noise and people smoking in front! There were however three fans which did help. 3. Soap and Shower dispensers were fixed so high that me and my daughter could not use them! Note to hotel - not everyone is 6ft 3 high, some of us are smaller. Luckily I packed a small bar of soap which was handy.

    The hotel was perfectly located for all attractions, tram links and Amsterdam Centraal Station. Plenty of shops, supermarket, restaurants, cafes and bars all with a few minutes walk. The room (triple) was very spacious, clean and comfortable. En-suite bathroom was lovely and modern. Breakfast was great, lots to choose from...something for everyone. Staff were all super friendly and very helpful. We really enjoyed our break and would definitely go back again.

    Bed and pillows weren’t that comfortable and it was very hot in the room but opening the window meant mosquitos would fly in from the standing water on the roof outside the window. No AC, but fans are provided. Shower water pressure was also very low.

    Friendly staff, convenient location.

    We had no air conditioning in the room on the 1st floor and had to open the window as it was very hot. However, street noise (there were 2 benches right below the windows and they were being used by people in the midnight and after) made it impossible to sleep, had to change the room.

    Great location, easy access by foot or public transportation to Amsterdam sights. My family enjoyed the breakfast. Staff was helpful and friendly.

    The dust in the room and beds is not clean. I have to use a disposable sheet because I have allergies to dust.

    The location is very good and close to the city centre. Everything is good and the view of the room is beautiful. Recipients are friendly and welcoming.

    The room smelled like vomit. I asked the front desk about it and was given a toilet refreshing spray. As you can imagine vomit smell did not go away. Lack of AC made the situation even worse. Since we stayed only one night in didn't want to fight for new room

    No air conditioning in the room. It wasn’t a major issue, but on really hot days it could get a little stuffy. The fan helped a bit, but it wasn’t quite enough to keep the room comfortably cool all the time.

    The location was perfect — the tram from Central Station passed right in front of the hotel, which made getting from the airport really easy. Everything was spotlessly clean, the staff were friendly and helpful, and the bed was super comfortable. I stayed alone and felt very safe and relaxed. I’ll definitely stay here again next time!

    No AC in the rooms, and I was there for the hottest week. Had to leave the windows open to get some fresh air, but then there are mice... they use mouse trap to catch the mice coming in into your bedroom.

    Location was good.

    The beds could have been more comfortable, but apart from that the hotel had everything necessary.

    Location was excellent, very central. The tea coffee and water facilities in reception were a lovely touch. The beds were only ok they may need updating. The room was spotless, also we arrived in the middle of a heatwave, there was no air conditioning, but we did notice that two fans had been recently purchased for our room. We did not have breakfast but for a short stay in Amsterdam this hotel had everything you would need
