Sauberes Zimmer, für 1-3 Nächte in Ordnung
Pros:

Die Zimmer waren sauber und relativ gepflegt. Das Fenster war leicht defekt.
Abersperrter Parkplatz vorhanden aber recht teuer.

Cons:

Man braucht recht lange in die Stadt. Der Parkplatz ist sehr teuer.

Stay somewhere more central
Pros:

Hotel staff were pleasant. Bathroom and shower were good though room was a little shabby. Breakfast was ok.

Cons:

Hotel is located 25 minutes from the centre of Amsterdam by taxi or bus. It is in the Turkish quarter so the hotel serves no alcohol!. It’s more like being in Turkey than Holland.

Pros:

Hotel je blizu autobusne stanice i dobro povezan sa ostatkom grada i aerodromom.
Soba je bila čista i udobna, imaš sve što ti je potrebno.

Cons:

Kvart je bio pomalo neugodan, pogotovo jer smo bile same prijateljica i ja. Inače nemam nikakvo drugo loše iskustvo sa ovim hotelom.

Cons:

Frühstück war sehr schlecht. Sehr wenig Auswahl, Rührei und andere Speisen bitter.
Weit vom Zentrum entfernt und sehr laute Umgebung. Ausstattung im Zimmer sehr dürftig (wenige Handtücher, Duschkabinentür undicht).

Pictures were deceiving
Pros:

The bathroom

Cons:

I was not pleased with the hotel. There were visible stains and marks on the walls throughout the room, especially around the bedside areas. The carpet was also stained and appeared not to have been vacuumed properly. The bathroom, however, was clean and in good condition.

Prima, maar geen herhaling
Pros:

Prima bedden, lekkere douche

Cons:

We hadden een kamer met twee aparte bedden maar dat deze achter elkaar stonden in de lengte met een kast ertussen hadden we niet verwacht…
