Great hotel in a great location

Very nice hotel in a great location. Single room was a little small (to be expected), but was comfy and well setup. Staff and service was very good. Shame about the building noise on the last morning, but we were warned about that in advance

We were not aware when we booked that the property was under construction which meant the facade was covered and the view from the room was blocked. Construction noise started at 7:30 every morning, disrupting our sleep. Other than that, the stay was great. The room was clean and the staff were very helpful. The bathroom was on the smaller side. The location is great with easy access to several tram lines.

The location of the hotel is phenomenal. It's adjacent to Dam square, McDonald's and Albert hijn right next door. Walking proximity to Amsterdam centraal train station and there are trams right outside the front door to take you to almost anyplace you want to go. The room is super clean. The bed is extremely comfortable BUT... The pillows were terrible, hard as rocks. Room is ridiculously small with a king bed, barely any room to move. The shower had no curtain or doors so entire bathroom gets a bit wet when showering. Shout out to Livvy who was fantastic at check-in and Stephanie was great getting us a cab to schipol airport for $60 euros when Uber was 134 euros. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

Unfortunately our single night travel layover was hampered by construction on the building facade. Room smelt like rotten eggs and construction worker staging area was directly outside room window, so no views or ability to keep window open. After reporting the smell/ window issue, front desk staff were sympathetic but no other room could be found so we were offered a reduction in room rate. We left room & stayed out as long as we could. Then hammering started at 0730 next morning, so we left room again, arriving back just in time to check out. Hallways & common areas were in great condition, just our room seemed to be a problem. For $400/nt room, totally unacceptable. Emailed hotel, again some compensation given, paid $250 instead but was in room 4 hrs. Can’t express our disappointment enough. Hoping other guests did not have to endure this as housekeeping & construction firm were to look into issues.

It’s in the center of everything

It’s a nice hotel in an area with lots around. The staff was really friendly. The only thing I was unhappy about was the fact we booked a city view room and ended up with a room facing an alley because the hotel is under renovation and that information wasn’t given to us that those rooms would be unavailable.
