Regardless of the negative reviews, we had a great experience! This was a great place for a one night stay! The room was nice, we had a nice size bathroom and the canal view was great! Yes, the stairs are steep and yes, you have to carry your luggage but that was not a problem for us!

The only thing about this hotel that feels like 4-stars is the price. I wish there was a way we could appeal Expedia's ratings. Let's put aside that someone with key card access and a master code robbed our safe and stole my wife's jewellery - that's a whole other thing. When we arrived I was willing to give them the benefit of the doubt on cleanliness (clean it was not). I was also willing to look past the horrible sewer smell permeating the corridors and our room (very old building, below-grade, old plumbing) and the mould. But when our family of 5 used up the 1.5 rolls of toilet paper they provided by the first morning, and we went to ask the for more, we were met with the response "we're out, you'll have to wait for the delivery later. Here's a box of facial tissue". I was speechless. So I went to the supermarket right across the street and bought our own 4-pack of toilet paper. I left one roll with the lady at the front desk in case any other guests had an emergency. I've been to a restaurant where the manager ran across the street to buy a drink they didn't have if a guest asked for it. Why did I have to procure my own toilet paper in an $800/night room? Where's the customer service attitude? The manager later denied it even happened. I'll expect a rebuttal from them in these reviews, given their past activity, but I have no reason to make this up. It's too bad, because we love Amsterdam, but this hotel experience soured my family on going back.

Good size room. Good size bed. All amenities ( a/c, tv, mini fridge) worked just fine. Bathroom clean and functional. We had view to the garden, unfortunately, flowers were dead. Walk distance to restaurants, transport and center. Maybe a challenge to people with mobility issues, we’re on the ground floor and had many small steps. Also, housekeepers talked very loud in the hall. I would stay again for sure

We stayed in room 16- which was a 3 bedroom one bathroom apartment. Very cool space but really dirty. My kids loved having their own rooms upstairs. If you’re not fit, I wouldn’t recommend staying here. There are a lot of small narrow stairs and no elevators. I’m very confused who allowed this to be called a 4 star hotel. It most definitely is not. It’s giving first apartment all free hand me down furniture, dishes, linens vibes- maybe a few new Ikea pieces. Most lockable windows were unlocked on arrival. It didn’t help that I read the google reviews prior to check in and there were a lot of reviews about theft. It’s very dirty like they don’t have maids. The trim was covered in filth, there were dead smushed spiders on the wood floors, the walls were even filthy. The towels are frayed and dingy. Due to the reviews we were nervous to have the place serviced during our stay and opted to keep the do not disturb sign on. There is a bug problem. There are spiders, flies, mosquitos and ants. We killed the mosquitos we could while we were awake but all got eaten alive while we slept.

Overall a terrible experience. We checked in and were given a beautiful room. The room was well equipped and as it was a very warm day in Amsterdam, we turned on the AC. We were content and then the frustrations began. We went for a stroll to see the local area and returned at 5:30 PM. Upon entering the room, it was excruciatingly hot. The AC was not working and only the fan was on. We contacted the staff who showed me how to use the thermostat. I noticed ours did not have the chill mode. I explained this to the staff and was told the operation of the AC was “hard to explain” we decided to leave because it was too hot. We returned at 8 PM and the AC was working. All good. The following morning we woke to shower and upon turning the main shower head, the water was extremely hot. We turned the valves to the cold setting to no avail. It appeared the water temperature valve was broken and not operational meaning the shower was eternally stuck on the hottest setting. We were forced to bathe using the bathtub faucet which is low. We brought this to the staff and they stated they would check on it. Upon our return, no change and the water remained hot. We again told the staff who stated a work order would be submitted and it would be looked at 9:30 AM. Was the matter fixed? Nope. We endured this for the next two days. Overall the worse experience in my many years of travel. Also the AC chill mode turns off during the day and is non-op during the hottest hours. Traveler beware.

Was disappointed that I paid for 2 deluxe rooms (for myself and one for my son and his girlfriend) but was told upon checking in that since I was checking in solo they downgraded my room and didn't offer a refund. The room was fine but it was the principle of not receiving compensation. I paid almost $400 a night for these rooms (which I see are usually less) so I left with a bitter taste of being taken advantage of

Very courteous staff. They let is keep our bags before checkin and after check out. We weren’t in our room much since we were out enjoying Amsterdam. Perfect location and comfy bed. Very steep steps to our small room but we expected that. Nice bathroom. Clean hotel. Highly recommend.

Room number two is just terrible. But since the price is fairly low for this location, I just left a negative review, including the positive feedback: friendly staff (but they failed to inform us about the room being their last and I hope worst) great coffee for free, fruit for free, excellent location, reasonable price for the room. 152 euro is not much for this location but is still too much for this room and the state it’s in.

In a really good spot in relation to the main centre, around 25 mins walk from the station and around 15 mins to the centre. But also right next to Jordaan and 9streets so loads of places to explore on the doorstep. Staff were really nice, very helpful. There are a lot of steep steps in the hotel so not suitable if you have any mobility issues. Our room was ready early which was nice and the room was lovely, big vaulted ceiling, lovely decor and generally really nice. The only thing that put a little negative spin on it for us was that we’ve both come home covered in bites! I rarely get bitten when I’m away but I’ve got loads and I’m not sure if it’s just because we slept with the window open (it was very warm) or if it was something in the room, so maybe take some repellent if you do stay here. Despite this, I would stay here again as it was overall a really nice place.
