Schade...
Cons:

Zu meinem großen Bedauern war das Frühstück einfach nur widerlich.
Das Frühstück war um 7 Uhr morgens bereits völlig kalt.
Kalte Rühreier. Kalter Speck. Es gab überhaupt keine Auswahl an Wurstwaren.
Was das Croissant angeht, hatte man den Eindruck, dass man in der Hotelküche überhaupt nicht weiß, was ein Croissant ist.
Es war völlig plattgedrückt und überhaupt nicht luftig.
Was das Hotelzimmer angeht, war es insgesamt schrecklich.
Das Fenster befand sich auf Bodenhöhe, ließ sich überhaupt nicht öffnen und war mit einer Art Folie abgeklebt.
Im Zimmer herrschte ständig ein unangenehmer Geruch. Es roch irgendwie nach Schimmel oder etwas Verfaultem.
Leider kann ich dieses Hotel niemandem empfehlen.

Prijs super maar wel wat aandachtspunten
Pros:

De communicatie was erg goed! Ik had problemen met betalen via credit card & het hotel heeft echt via andere betaalmethoden me geholpen, dit was erg fijn!

Het bed lag erg goed & de kussen waren prima!

Prijs is ook super, zeker in centrum Amsterdam!
Recht tegenover parking Amsterdam Centraal.

Cons:

Ontbijt, ik vond het eigenlijk echt heel weinig.
We hadden om 10u ontbeten, dit hadden we op voorhand moeten doorgeven. Toen we aankwamen lagen er nog: 4 croissants, brood, kaas, 2 plakken salami & enkele plakken chorizo.
2 gekookte eieren & 1 schep van roerei.
& 1 karaf melk.
Geen spek, geen fruitsap,… ik kreeg wel een lekkere koffie maar mijn partner heeft dus niets gedronken want hij drinkt geen koffie.

De kamer: airco, was eigenlijk echt geen airco.
Het was net te doen op de kamer maar koelen deed de airco niet echt. Ze hadden wel een extra waaier voorzien.
Badkamer: vond ik persoonlijk wat minder, wat verouderd & uit het toilet kwam een onfrisse geur.
Verder was er wel alles wat nodig was.
De koelkast/minibar op de kamer: die koelde eigenlijk niet, de drank was kouder dan kamer temperatuur maar ook niet echt koud.

Prijs kwaliteit is dit wel oké, zeker voor zo’n ligging in Amsterdam.
