Veldig ålreit rom, med helt greit bad. Litt seig og bratt trapp for de som ikke er så gode til beins

Near everything. A good value. Like a lot of Dutch properties, be prepared for narrow stairs!

Mijn kamer was niet beschikbaar vanwege waterschade, het hotel had proactief een kamer voor me geboekt in een ander hotel en me daar keurig over gebeld. Goede service!

Für einen günstigen Preis bekommt man ein großes, sauberes und komfortables Zimmer. Das Bad weist ebenfalls keine Mängel auf. Das beste aber ist der Frühstück, der im Preis inbegriffen ist. Durch Corona-Maßnahmen wird es gut getimed, wer wann am besten in den Essraum kommen sollte und dann gibt es genug Vielfalt für jeden, sodass man gut satt wird. Würde auf jeden Fall wieder buchen, da es bis zum Zentrum kein weiter weg ist und man in der Gegend nicht von lauten Geräuschen gestört wird.

Okay hotel - tæt på byen og alligevel så langt væk, at vi undgik støjen fra byen. Man skal være obs på, der ikke er elevator og trappen op er meget stejl. Pak let, så går det. Ikke velegnet til gangbesværet. Kaffe og te i receptionsområdet.

Overall, I recommend this hotel. Like many others, I picked this hotel based on reviews so I want to provide one. It’s located in a safe and relatively quiet area of Amsterdam very close to the Heineken brewery and Rijktmuseum. It’s about a 35-40 minute walk from the train station so we took an Uber since it was raining when we arrived. I liked the location because Amsterdam is a small city and we could easily walk or tram to places. The staff is very friendly and helped us with our luggage (see why below) and allowed us to leave our bags after checkout as we went out for brunch and to the Rijkt. I gave this hotel 4/5 stars in a few areas. First, while my kids and I found this charming you should know the stairs to the levels with rooms are very steep and there’s no elevator. We had a small suitcase which they brought up for us but if you’re traveling with large and heavy suitcases this could be a problem. Also, our room was small They tend to be smaller in Europe and that’s fine but we were 3 so if we had large suitcases it would have been tight. Finally the room was clean and had fresh linens and towels but I gave a 4/5 for cleanliness given its age and overall condition So I do recommend this hotel but you should know about the stairs and room size.

I was slightly worried that there'd been a mix up and I'd have to share but no, I had a large basement room to myself.

Fun areas around it, close to the metro, clean, cool views from out the window. A fan in the room would have been helpful and some barrier around the shower so the entire bathroom didn't get completely soaked with each use. People complained about the steep stairs, but we saw them as a fun challenge.

Oppholdet var veldig bra, men jeg tror de må bytte trapper, de er veldig bratte👌

Hotellet er i og for seg bra. Ble møtt av en ung mann som var litt for kul til å gidde å inkludere noe særlig service. Men helt ok. Kom inn på rommet som lå i en veldig høy og bratt tredje etasje. Når vi først var oppe var det ok, men VELDIG varmt uten vifte eller aircon. Frokosten var enkel og fin. Supert område med kort vei til alt!! Alt i alt godt fornøyde!

The hotel is in a brilliant location! We got around Amsterdam very easily from our location. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The room was very small and basic, but was comfortable and clean.
