Nice, clean, somewhat simple hotel. The room is basic, but modern and clean. Very helpful staff. Great location not far from the Leidseplein. It's my go-to budget choice in Amsterdam.

I was very aprehensive about staying here after reading the reviews but it is nowhere near as bad as people make out. Staff were very friendly and on hand 24/7, we were on the first floor so didn't use the lift much but it wasn't as slow as expected and we didn't hear it during the night at all. The location of the hotel is great, it's close enough to the centre to be walking distance, but far enough away to get a good nights sleep. We stayed for a week, including on a Friday and Saturday night, and slept with the window open with minimal noise issues. There are a handful of shops and restaurants just a few minutes walk away. Was it dirty? No. Did the paint need a freshen up? Yes, but it does not affect your stay at all. The double bed was massive and SO comfortable. The room and bathroom were both decent sizes. The shower doesn't have a door or curtain so some water does go a little around the bathroom but put the mat down that they provide and be a little careful and its not an issue. Overall, I enjoyed my stay here and would stay here again. It's a great budget hotel and nowhere near as bad as people make out.

After reading the reviews I was hesitant about my stay at this property. However, we were pleasantly surprised. The location of the hotel was perfect, only 30 min walk till you’re in the city centre. The hotel has bikes to hire as well as numbers for taxis etc. The room was satisfactory for the price you pay. The balcony was lovely, the TV had Netflix & Prime available. The bed was comfy. Big bathroom and mirrors. 24 hour reception was perfect. You cannot go wrong for the price. The only criticism, would be there was no soup/toilet roll, however we did get some after asking. Overall, the reviews are not accurate and the hotel is perfect for a budget stay. Thank you very much!

A small but functional room. The thin mattress kept slipping off the wooden base, and the shower oddly had no curtain or door, so the water would spread out into the bathroom and the room itself. But the floor was made of a material that eventually absorbed the water. The elevator is indeed the slowest and loudest I’ve experienced (as advertised) but the room is reasonably priced, the location is great, in walking distance from the van Gogh and Rijksmuseum, and near several good restaurants. The staff is nice and the front door stays open throughout the night.

Room 17 is not a room I would recommend to anyone taller than 5'4 or over 140 lbs, you simply won't be able to maneuver in the bathroom. The window can't open because the cubbard is in front of it. The head of the bed is against the loud elevator wall. The stairs are whimsical yet treaturous. Staff were friendly and helpful.

If I could leave 0 stars I would. This is a warning to all potential guests to steer clear of this hotel. Do not believe the Expedia average review of 7 out of 10 stars. The room will only be cleaned if you demand in advance, you will be charged fees for requesting fresh towels (which their resident cat lies on all day - hello allergies!), and the amount of audible noise from other guests (because it's an "old building") is insufferable. The towels, bedsheets, wallpaper, etc etc is in such a state of disrepair it's disgraceful this place still makes money.

Comfortable location
The location is quite comfortable and in a walkable distance to the main attractions. The outside of the hotel is not bad but the entrance is very dirty, the rooms are dusty, showers are not very functional as you will flood the floor. Rooms are spacious but the forniture not arranged properly as you will have to jump over the bed to reach the balcony.

The location was very convenient and close to where we wanted / needed to be. However we were disappointed with the size of the rooms, the lack of basic facilities such as tea and coffee in the room, the plastic flooring, stained mattress, and faulty electrics on arrival

It was mediocre
Really great service, nice and attentive man, but there was no hot water in the morning, found out at 10:30am and was a little late to go and speak to someone as checkout is 11am. The soundproofing is non existent, we was in room 1 right by the door, and you can hear every whisper from the office next door along with upstairs sadly. Room was okay, but run down, but can’t complain for the price apart from that. Good stay just disappointed it could have been so much better! Probably won’t come back until renovations take place sadly. 7/10

Staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly. Room #3 was nice but needs up-keeping and maintenance, especially the bathroom. The overhead shower has bubbles in the ceiling and the water comes out uneven. It is a walk in shower and there is not enough inclination on the floor so the water does not move towards the drain, water splashes outwards. Mold damage on the door frame due to this excessive water. Headboard and lounge chair need to be vacuumed. Have a lot of dust. Just with this details fixed it go up to be a 5star.

Great value for the location of the hotel. The area is relatively quiet but very close to museums, attractions, and public transportation. Staff was friendly and helpful. The room itself was comfortable with a comfortable bed. I’d recommend easily.

The room itself is fine, you have a bed and a lovely shower… but it is not a balcony, it’s a shelf that you can’t actually stand on so the description is not accurate. The wallpaper is peeling throughout the property and the whole place feels like it needs a deep clean. While we were staying, some guests upstairs decided to smoke in their room and set off the fire alarms at 1am. However, if the price was a little lower I would stay here again.. the location is perfect for exploring Amsterdam and it is actually pretty quiet as it’s not right in the centre
