My go-to place in the city 💙
Pros:

I honestly don't understand why this hotel has such bad reviews !!
I stayed for 03 nights in a single room, and I had a really good experience. For a 01 star hotel, it's actually excellent.
The room was clean, comfortable and spacious enough for one person, with enough room for my suitcase. The bathroom was also clean and perfectly fine.
The staff were friendly and helpful. The stairs are quite narrow, as is often the case in old Dutch buildings, but the staff kindly offered to help me with my suitcase.
I also had a beautiful view of Damrak street and Canal.
The location is absolutely fantastic ! Just a short walk from Amsterdam Central and the Red Light District. You can explore almost the entire city on foot, and easily pop back to your room to drop off your shopping before heading out again.
If I come back to Amsterdam, I'll definitely stay here again. It's become my go-to place in the city 💙

Soggiorno fantastico, camera con balcone e vista spettacolare su Piazza Dam. Posizione perfetta per visitare Amsterdam,
Pros:

Mi è piaciuto tantissimo il balcone della camera con vista su Piazza Dam, davvero spettacolare! La posizione della struttura è eccezionale, centralissima e comoda per raggiungere tutto a pochi passi: attrazioni, negozi, ristoranti e tutto ciò di cui si ha bisogno per godersi al meglio Amsterdam. Una posizione davvero perfetta per visitare la città!

Cons:

L’unica piccola pecca è stato un po’ di rumore, probabilmente dovuto alla posizione centralissima dell’hotel. La pulizia era discreta, ma con un po’ più di attenzione ai dettagli si potrebbe migliorare ulteriormente. Tuttavia, il rumore era assolutamente sopportabile e non ha compromesso il soggiorno. Nel complesso, mi sono trovata molto bene!

Great value for money. Would definitely stay again.
Pros:

Great location and great value for money.

Cons:

Room is a bit smaller than the advertised photos. Our room was at the front of the building and you can hear lots of outside noise. Probably not a long term stay hotel.

Highly recommend! 💕
Pros:

The location is simply unbeatable — you are right in the middle of everything,- with a beautiful view of Damrak !
But what made my stay extra special was the lovely guy at the reception ( sorrry! I forgot your name! ). He was SO helpful, incredibly friendly, and genuinely kind. ❤️ His warm welcome made me feel so comfortable and added such a lovely touch to the whole experience.

Para no volver
Pros:

La ubicación

Cons:

La limpieza , las sábanas tenía dos manchas pequeñas y no olía a limpio .
Las 4 noches dormí fatal, se escuchaba todo cuando la gente subía o bajaba , los de al lado unos chicos italianos se juntaron 6 en la habitación a hablar basga las 3 de la mañana todos los días .
Una máquina dispensadora en el pasillo y se escuchaba todas las noches a la gente estar comprando y hablaban alto. El trabajador antipático
