Bon rapport qualité-prix, personnels sympas et avenants, bonne situation MAIS hôtel vieillot et doit être rafraîchi
Pros:

Déjà un peu excentré mais possible de louer des vélos à l’hôtel (idéal pour se déplacer à Amsterdam) et aussi tram 4 proche de l’hôtel.
Personnels très sympathiques.

Cons:

Chambre un peu vétuste et un bon rafraîchissement serait nécessaire. Lits très étroits (70cm). Odeur pas agréable dans l’hôtel. Propreté pas optimale.

Not a pleasant stay
Pros:

Nothing

Decent enough for the price. Nothing fancy
Pros:

I've stayed before it's a decent cheap location out of the main tourist area.

It's very basic and could do with renovating but for what it's worth needed it was perfect

Cons:

It has a shared bathroom and the shower takes up 90% of the room
Leaving 10% of the room for undressing and leaving your clothes.

Pros:

Nahe an der Tram 4

Cons:

Heizkörper im Zimmer waren komplett rostig, Bettwäsche hatte starken Chemiegeruch. Toilette und Dusche sind so klein, dass man als durchschnittlich große Person Probleme hat

Economico ed assolutamente al suo scopo.
Pros:

La struttura è a poca distanza dai mezzi pubblici, e comunque vicina al centro abbastanza da raggiungerlo a piedi.
Wi-Fi ottima e disponibilità a lasciarlo in custodia la valigia post check out

Cons:

Le camere sono poco insonorizzate.
Ho riscontrato delle cimici da letto l'ultima notte.
