Preis im Vergleich zu hochpreis Hotels zu hoch
Pros:

Unkompliziert, gute Lage Nähe meines Ziel Ortes, zentral, freundlich

Cons:

Zimmer klein und kalt. Musste für zusätzliche Bett Decke fragen, die ich anstandslos, aber erst beim zufälligen Antreffen von Personal, erhalten hatte.

Pros:

Très bon rapport qualité prix, proximité imédiate avec la gare et les lieux d'intérêt ! le personnel de l'hôtel a été très arrangeant et aimable avec nous. Nous avions pris les chambres sans fenêtres qui constituaient un très bon compromis

An excellent place to stay when visiting Amsterdam centre, only let down by the warm room.
Pros:

A great location in the city centre. Very adequate wifi and very helpful and cordial staff.

Cons:

The room was too hot even though outside it was around 5-7 degrees C and the heating was turned off. However the staff provided a fan which eased the heat considerably.
