Great location, close to Vondle Park and lots of museums. The room itself was good but with no air conditioning you have to rely on the fans in the room. The bathroom was a decent size but the shower could have been bigger. We used the laundry service on onr of the days and found it to be good value and convenient. The staff were pleasant and helpful. Due to the location we walked to most places.

Location for price is terrific. Vondel Park is steps away, and excellent shopping also close. Major museums easily accessible. Front desk staff were nice and helpful. We did see two bed bugs (one on the mattress below the clean sheets and one on the floor). That was disappointing so we were careful to check everything before sleeping.

The staff was wonderful, specifically Faiz. My room was small but big enough to sleep comfortably. Do not skip breakfast; add it to your stay. You will appreciate it, trust me. I didn’t get it, and when I sneaked in, everything was so fresh. Lol, don’t worry, they will know if you didn’t add to your stay. But all in all, I had a wonderful time in Amsterdam. I will definitely book with them again. Thank you Faiz!!

DO NOT BOOK THIS HOTEL. There was BED BUGS in the room. I got bit all over my body. After looking into it, this hotel has been having issues with bed bugs for a while now. The receptionist didn’t seem surprised when I told them about this. We immediately left and booked another hotel. Then we had to make sure we didn’t take any bed bugs home with us and in fact did find two nymphs in our backpacks. Horrible experience. Cannot recommend.

The hotel location is great and the staff is friendly and helpful. The building is a bit older and worn but they are working on upgrades. There was a bit of construction going on. Our room required taking an elevator and then a set of stairs so if accessibility is an issue be sure to mention that. Rooms were clean and quiet, amenities as advertised.

The positive was that the breakfast was OK, and it is right by the Vondelpark. The room cleaning staff were friendly. The room was tiny with a stained carpet, only a tiny light accessible from the bed and a toilet so cramped that I couldn't easily sit down.

A nice little hotel in the Museum Quarter that was obviously recently updated. Clean and comfortable, located in a quiet area, and near many shops, bars and restaurants. Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.
