Hotel molto curato, posizione ottima.
Pros:

Hotel curato in posizione ottima, vicino alla metro e centro raggiungibile anche con piacevole passeggiata a piedi. Stanza molto ampia. Doccia molto comoda e grande, lavandino un pò piccolo, ma sufficiente. Colazione a prezzi buoni con ampia scelta di caffè.

Potrebbero dare opzione con colazione a prezzo fisso.

Tanto caldo
Pros:

Molto pulito e vicino a metro e altri mezzi di trasporto

Cons:

Avevamo una camera in mansarda e non c’era l’aria condizionata. Mi sembra davvero strano per un hotel 4 stelle.
Il primo giorno abbiamo utilizzato il bollitore presente in camera il giorno dopo non sono stati rimessi zucchero e the.

Pros:

The location was excellent, near public transport, restaurants and stores. I could also do a lot by foot such as visiting a couple of museums. The room and bathroom were clean and functional. I chose a small room and it was small, but sufficient for what I needed.

Cons:

Nothing really. The hotel and staff were really nice. Maybe important to notice that there was no breakfasts included, but I knew it before booking.

An outstanding location for a few days in Amsterdam!
Pros:

I can’t say enough great things about the staff. They were incredibly friendly and welcoming even during one of the busiest times of the year. The hotel is cute and spotlessly clean. The location is perfect…close enough to public transportation that you can get anywhere quickly and easily, but nestled on a quiet street so you can stay out the noise and traffic.

Cons:

I liked everything about this hotel!
