    All in all nice hotel with an ok location

    Clean. Helpful and welcoming stuff

    The price is too expensive for the small room (200euro per night). The bath is dangerous

    “My tip: "Wok to walk" is tasty and good value for money”

    clean hotel,friendly nightstaff,ideally situated,but...

    room was clean ,the night staff were very friendly and helpful, tram stops just out front taking you directly to the centre. Free internet access with their own computer in the bar.

    if you pay by credit card you are hit by a 4% extra charge not included when you reserve nor is it announced(very disappointing). beds were not the most comfortable and the walls of the room do need some polyfilla !

    - Proximity to the park ...

    - Very noisy rooms - The receptionist was disturbingly insisting. - We could not get any refund for our second night when we decided we were unsatisfied enough to quit the hotel The overall impression matches the missing \"A\" on the hotel blinking front : A*LBORG. Feels fake.

    Great Hotel...

    Aalborg was the first option available in the "non-hostel" class of hotels (price-wise) and I was surprised by the quality. Great location near trams and a nice park that is probably fantastic in the spring / summer. Very friendly staff that provided some good info on tourist spots as well as areas specific to locals. I will return to this hotel for sure...

    The rooms in Europe are always much smaller and you'll need to keep that in mind if you are from the US like me. The shower was too small to move around in and there was some general grime in the bathroom, but it was not excessive. Walls are thin.

    Very friendly, helpful staff & a pleasant park right across the ro

    Richard was very helpful as our evening 'concierge' and gave us very good advice on where to find dinner restaurants and other needs, like the benefit of taking a taxi to the airport.

    Location. Actually, we hoped to go to more museums, so the hotel is well situated for that and we loved the park being so close, but we were surprised at how far we were from the train station, which is how we arrived, but we did end up walking a lot and the tram system was also useful once we were able to learn more about it. We just had not prepared ourselves sufficiently about the Amsterdam layout.

    Good for budget, noisey

    The Hotel was cleean and the staff was very pleasent. They did have a "real" full bed, which in other hotels I have been given a room with two regular beds pushed together. The Bed was also very firm. My room, and I'm guessing others on the first floor, have some access to the wireless internet offered downstairs at no charge.

    The walls were so thin that other peoples conversations could be heard clearly in the next room. The toilet was posistioned so close to the shower as to make sitting on it a difficult task. There is a school near by from which children can be heard as early as 9am. I have a great tolorance for noise, but it was to much to sleep through. Personally, I believe I would be happier paying an aditional 20-30 Euros and having a room with more sound proofing.

    BEWARE BE WARNED!!!

    Cheap. They blocked money on my card, then told me it wasn't authorised and I had to pay cash. So I did. The I checked my card and they had blocked an amount, which they then blamed the card company. Card company balmes merchant. Either way, they MY SPENDING MONEY. What a lovely time, broke, in Amsterdam!

    BEWARE- They will block the quoted amount for your stay from your card. Upon arrival, if you wish to pay by card, they will request +4%. If you decline, the blocked amount will not be realeased for another 7 days. If you are on a budget, this may cause you a BIG PROBLEM. It is a scam.

    non-inspiring low-budget accommodation

    Friendly staff

    The room was definitely not 3-star, even for Amsterdam standards. I have stayed in more than a dozen dfiferent hotels in Amsterdam an I would not recommend this one. The room was tiny, the tram in front of the window is noisy . Shower and toilet needed refurbishment/renovation. The whole place makes a non-maintained impression. The location is also too far away from the center for tourists (I'm none)

    The good hotel to spend the nights after walks across Amsterdam

    The friendly personnel, new modern interior of rooms, cleanliness in rooms

    Once the cleaner has forgotten to close a room after cleaning during our absence! Small, inconvenient, dangerous bath

    Fantastic base for a few days in Amsterdam

    The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. I arrived at 6am, 9 hours before my official check in time. The young man at reception made me an expresso coffee and sat me in the breakfast room where I worked on my computer. they made a special effort to get my room ready by 9.30am. Thanks to all for great hospitality and humour!

    This is a basic hotel, but all you need as a base to see the sights of Amsterdam.

    Young couples -

    Le quartier sympa : bien situé dans la ville, avec le marché tous les matins. Personnel vraiment agréable. Good !

    Peu de choses à dire : Notre baignoire trop étroite, quelques nuisances de briut avec le tram... encore que ...

    justifies 3-stars rank

    Good location - near tram station Centuurbaam on a relatively quiet street. I lived in a twin room which was (together with bathroom) unexpectedly large for such a small hotel.

    Very small corridors and dangerous spiral stairs. Room keys are given without checking the guest's identity. Very loudly you hear your neighbours open and shut the doors.

    Very enjoyable stay and will definitely stay there next time

    Loved the space and quality of my double room. Excellent places for drinking and eating or just chilling out. Staff were very friendly and the price of the room was excellent value for money.

    None, but it would be nice to have a stand up shower in the future.

    Nice and economic

    Nice hotel, surprisingly cheap for the average in Amsterdam. Located in a quiet and beautiful area, not in the centre but opposite a nice park and close to Vondel Park and the museums. The best transport was undoubtedly the bicycle, which you can rent at the hotel at a good price, and move around the city in a comfortable, time-saving and benefitial way. Otherwise, there are also trams to the centre.

    Like other reviews have already pointed out, there is a big difference between the twin and double room, for a small difference in price. I definitely recommend the twin, as its quality and in particular its size is enormously better than the double.

    decent stay

    We had a beautiful spacious room. We very much liked the location.

    We had wanted a double bed but those rooms are too tiny so we ended up with two twins pushed together which made for a bigger room but my husband and I were quite uncomfortable sleeping on those beds as it was near impossible for us to sleep together without falling through the cracks... We had beautiful big windows but they looked out onto the patio where the garbage dump was, which was noisy when the staff was throwing out trash. For those reasons I think the room should have been at a discounted price.

    Cheaper rate, but with a great quality!

    Very helpfull staff.

    At the 4th floor the wireless internet signal is very poor, impossible to connect, but its very good in the bar. There\'s no safe in the room. The room is kindly tight, so for a couple, just 1 middle luggage per person

    Good location. All major sights and the city center are within walking distance or can be reached by tram.

    Rooms extremely small. Burn holes in the blanket. Corridor smelled like dope (although the consumption is forbidden in the hotel, many guests obviously don\'t care). Breakfast too expensive.

    The room was clean.

    The walls were like paper, we could hear every single voice from the rooms next to us and also from the corridoor. In the evening there was no hot water.
