Top location, but don't expect to sleep

Comfortable beds, Location very ideal for a tourist (close to Leidsiplein, Museumplein, and shopping districts)

Management doesn't seem to be able to control its guests, not the best place to get restful nights sleep

Pourrais mieux faire !

Bon accueil avant que la chambre soit libre par un personnel sympathique et une bonne tasse de café. La situation de l'hotel est idéale pour visiter la ville. La rue est calme

Hôtel très mal isolé phoniquement, hygiène de la chambre limite (sauf S de B OK), même pas une table ni une chaise pour se poser, juste le minimum. La literie mériterait d'être remplacée. Bref, on en a pour notre fric (200 € 3 nuits avec Petits dej, c'est pas trop mal.

Location definitly, rooms are clean and a toilette also. They change the towels every day.

Rooms a little bit small and a breakfast a little too poor, but for the price that you pay it is ok.

Close to everything but not in a noisy area.

An excellent location near pleany of shops and restaurants. Great service from everyone there. Tram stop close to hotel 2min walk. Quiet. Breakfast was standard but always good. Would definitely stay again.

Stairs might be a problem for older travellers but staff are helpful with bags to your room.

- Located in the city-center - Good public transport connections - Easy to find

- Rooms smell badly - Breakfast choice is really poor - Our luggage was stolen (nobody took care about it since they suggested to leave it in the hotel after check-out) though they haven't told us that's it not on their responsibility and that they do have a locker for valuable things.

Bare basics

Loved the two "house cats".

Beds are increadibly noisy. The light from the hotel sign shines in through the windows and makes it hard to sleep. Also noise travels easily from outside into the room.

Great location and value for money - highly recommended

- close to the centre and major tram lines - big comfy room with a king size soft bed - large clean bathroom - TV and wireless internet connection - good continental breakfast (great coffee machine)

- no lift and steep stairs - staff somewhat intimidating (they never smiled!) - with open windows it can be a bit noisy in the evening (byt hey, it's Amsterdam! )

Stay Away!

The staff were very friendly and helpful which was a bonus.

The only positive of my stay were the staff. The room I stayed in was totally gross- dirty bed linen, condom stuck on the roof and the carpet floor was filthy. I would never stay here again!

OK not great. Small and rather dirty

Relatively close to the city center. It would be walking distance but I took a cab b/c it got late and I wasn't familiar with the area. The cab cost 15 Euro and dropped me off at 140 Kerkstraat rather than at the hotel (25 Kerkstraat). The driver assured me it was only 20 more meters, when it was probably closer to a half kilometer. I wasn't happy! Breakfast of cold meat sandwiches was filling and adequate.

room was quite small. I had a basement room with only one window to a fire escape so I left the TV on all night so it wasn't so dark. I had to ask for more toilet paper (there were about 2 squares on the roll in the room). The door wouldn't open all the way b/c the bed was in the way. This room would have been nearly impossible with two people or with much luggage. It worked OK for me b/c I was alone with only a small backpack. Bathroom was nice (albeit small) and recently remodeled. However, the room wasn't remarkably clean. There was a booger on the wall (eew) and the sheets weren't very clean.

Disapointment

Good location.

We got moved to another room without being asked. When we came home one night someone else was in our room and all our things had been thrown into our bags. We then got moved to a room just like the one we had before! It is really not ok to let someone else into a room where our bags were still on the bed. Also every single day our keycard for the door did not work and we had to get a new one. All in all we had a very bad experience. Calling this a Hotel is not correct as we are really talking about a poorly managed hostel.

Like a youth hostel but far more expensive

they let us store our suitcase before check in and after check out. Location good for shopping areas. Good shower.

Very basic accommodation, similar to a youth hostel. Staff were not friendly until we left (?). Breakfast was very poor and fruit / fruit juice could not be identified. Room wasn't serviced during the day but towels were changed.

Great value for money and top location

Great location, generous breakfast, friendly staff, clean environment. Although it's a far cry from the Ritz, for the money you will not find anything remotely as good - certainly not in a smelly, noisy and overpriced hostel. Overall, very good value for money and would definitely recommend! The location in particular is incredible, very central but on a quiet street near a canal.

There was some dog crap outside which got on my suitcase! Not really the fault of the hotel, but it was a bit unpleasant so I would recommend keeping an eye on the outside as well...

Good base to explore amsterdam unless ur a "princess"

Location is a bit way out away from touristy areas, but easy links to tram or even walking will get u into centre. In fact, its probably good base to walk/cycle around the town, as its so easy. Friendly and helpful staff, cute cat for those allergic to cats. Few nearby coffeeshops as well.

Nothing really. If ur not fussed about location, this is good value.

the room was so small you could barely get in with your bag - the door didn't fully open (room S02). but i do think the room sizes vary, so check it out beforehand, if you can.

Good staff, bad breakfast and increased pricing...

24 hour reception and friendly staff. Clean spacious room with new bathroom. Beds were small but confortable.

Breakfast was poor (only bread and butter with orange juice) and when arriving, if paying by credit card, you have to give 5% more, plus the other 5% of city tax (10% total). Not much but i think this should be included in booking price to avoid surprises. Other customers were often complaining at the reception for the same reason.

Confortable aunque mejorable.

Bien situado, buen desayuno.

El segundo dia nos digeron sin ningun reparo que no subieramos comida a la habitacion que habia ratones, el tercer dia lo pudimos comprobar que era cierto a costa de nuesta comida, aunque tapando el agujero de la tuberia de la calefacion se soluciono.... El penultimo dia al parecer dieron nuestra habitacion a otras personas porque a pesar de que nos lo cobraron no nos la habian reservado. Al final se soluciono sin mucho alboroto.

Double charge for single night ruined my visit to Amsterdam!

Central location in Amsterdam yet still quiet at night. Clean, and neat.

Authorisation taken on credit card during booking of single room was not used as payment during check in despite the funds already being deducted from my account (ie. no longer available to me). I was forced to pay the last cash I had on me to cover the room charge. This ruined my day/night in Amsterdam as I had no more funds for lunch and dinner (etc...) and barely enough to get to Schipol the next morning. I find this unacceptable! Furthermore, the purchase was later put through on my credit card account despite my stay having been paid for with cash. This meant I paid twice for my single night's accommodation due to poor administration on the hotel's side. The issue is currently being addressed with the hotel directly - still pending a resolution. This has caused me to rate the service level as "1".

Great Hotel - Fire Alarm Works Well

The room was very comparable to the three star we stayed in the night before only considerably less expensive. The breakfast was also very good, but get there early if you like eggs or cheese. The wireless internet is also very fast. Just ask at the front desk for the password.

The fire alarm went off at four in the morning! I don't think I've ever woken up screaming in my adult life until that moment. The good news is there was no fire and if there had been, there's no way anyone could sleep through that alarm. The reason the fire alarm went off? Some knucklehead was smoking in the bottom level. Let me stress, however, that the hotel was not responsible for the actions of this idiot and handled the situation very well. When I returned to my room I looked out the window where a cab was waiting for the smoker to gather his things. Don't even think of smoking here.

GOOD LOCATION, BAD ROOM.

The position in the city, quite in the middle of Amsterdam, so you can easily reach by foot the main areas (train station, van Gogh Museum...).

Amsterdam is very expensive. We spent 73 euros for one night in this hotel and our room was downstairs, without windows becouse it was under the ground line and the bed was not so clean (maybe because there are some cats going around the hotel...)The breakfast was average, but not so good.

The location is totally sweet, it's calm but few minutes from all important day and night places to visit! Personel is really nice and they can show you on the map the best places to see. 24h reception really works. No problems with check in late. Everything is clean. Non-smoking policy inside hotel. Price/Value ratio is great!

Hotel is located in an old house so you can hear some noises from other rooms from time to time. I would appreciate some actual fruit for breakfast.
