The location of the hotel is perfect, just a few meters away from the central station. Additionally, the staff was very kind, solved all my questions and the room was very clean. Price-quality was amazing and would love to stay there again because of the service.

Surprised! From the reception looked a bit old fashioned but the rooms are fully refurbished very comfortable with air conditioning. Expensive for a single room but also was a last minute booking

The location was unbeatable, walking distance to most everything and to the train, which took us to the central station from the airport in minutes. Clean and comfortable place with helpful and friendly staff. FYI, there is a laundromat around the corner and ample coffee places for breakfast. planning on coming again.

Convenient location but basic room. The property is incredibly noisy probably due to the age and construction.

Good location. There is no mention of no elevator i was given a room on the top floor and had to climb a ridiculously steep and narrow sets of spiral stairs with all my luggage. The desk clerk helped me with my suitcase on my arrival and I carried my own bags down when I left. Never again

It was a decent stay, very convenient location for a 1 day layover, not big fan of leave the keys at the hotel every time I was going out but that’s their policy and I knew before hand, overall good for the price

8/10

A no-frills hotel choice. Functional and good location. Very tight quarters, but so is everything in Amsterdam. The staff are helpful and friendly, and provide fresh towels and room cleaning everyday. Other tenants staying here can be noisy, but this is not hotel's fault. Overall good, and I would use again. Very affordable as well.

Great place to stay. Near everything and amazing service. Make sure you don’t mind stairs! Great simple historic property.
1-night trip

8/10

We had other booing at other hotel, but decided to add one more day stay in Amsterdam, so we booked this hotel for just one night. Staff are friendly. Room is spacious compared with the other hotel we stayed. It’s very clean and comfortable, even with tea kettle and tea bags. Location is great, walkable to all attractions. The only thing we didn’t like was the stairs, which are spiral and narrow. We stayed on the 4th floor. That was difficult to climb. We wished someone would help us with the luggage dragging up to 4th floor. Besides the stairs we were very happy with our stay.
