Due to many unpleasant comments regarding the stairs and hygiene, I contacted the hotel personally with a request to accommodate us in a unit on the lower floor, because I personally suffer from a fear of heights and narrow spaces, I am also a smoker, so I would not like to put myself in a situation to smoke in the room. I was promised a lower floor unit with a nice window. This hotel deserves a 10/10 rating for several reasons: Surprise effect: In line with lower expectations, I was greeted by an expectedly clean, minimalist unit (expected for a 2 star category) but also a (real photos) beautiful high windows with a beautiful view of a city center itself seems almoust unreal ! Pure 10! Comfort: The unit is super clean without unnecessary artifacts, stunning space for a wardrobe with hangers, a desk, a TV, two comfortable clean adoult beds and lots of natural light coming in through the large windows! Stuff: Really exciting in this rating is TRUST. I got more than I was promised. The fact, it will never be possible to please everyone. High and low category hotels get both low and high reviews including some "souls" whose needs/wishes are simply impossible to fulfill. Content: I have to admit that the kettle should become mandatory equipmnent in general; as for the lacking hair dryer, I prepared myself ... but like most woman, I usually carry my own. 10 because it is not really important ! P.S. I didn't have time to personally apologize that my companion spilled juice on the sheets! I hope you didn't mind, in case of meeting Amsterdam again, you would definitely be my first choice, despite the higher price because it was the New Year period, it was worth every penny and thank you !

The location of this hotel is amazing, you can reach the main places of the city by walking. Room was big enough for the group of 4 people we went there and they offered to clean our room every day. Special mention to the staff of the hotel, specially the receptionist. There was one receptionist every night during our stay who was fantastic with our whole group (he even made us loats of hot dogs at 7am when my group and me came from a party in Amsterdam and were a bit annoying, but he still behave and made us feel appreciate and good take care) - I am not confident but his name but it might be something like Reres or Renes. If you read this we want to say thank you for your job.

Fantastic location. 5 minutes walk from the train station, 5 minutes from Dam Square, very central. Very friendly and helpful staff. They are there 24/7 The room was perfect. Comfortable bed, clean room, hot shower, view of the canal. Air con - although I didn’t use it as I prefer to open the window. I really appreciated the safe in the room for my valuables. Lots of power points - ideal for charging up my phone etc. All perfect for what I needed.

Room and facilities were very clean. Liked the very helpful 24-hour front desk staff and ability to store luggage by the front desk after arriving early. This place is ideally located for easy and quick access to public transportation; i.e. both a central train station for travel to the airport and surrounding region in addition to trams and metro to give easy access to the entirety of the city if unable to walk very far.

The staff were so nice and helpful, if you need anything just ask and they will do their best. The position is great - right in front of the station and near the main attractions. Even if it’s a 2-star hotel there are all the essentials you need. I would definitely recommend it for a short stay, especially if you’re planning on spending most of your day outside.
