Hotel bien ubicado,, recién reformado pero muy ruidoso
Pros:

Estaba muy bien ubicado. La habitación estaba recién reformada con todo nuevo.

Cons:

Lo peor el aislamiento de las habitaciones. Se escuchaba mucho ruido del resto de habitaciones y de la calle. Entraba olor a tabaco y lo que no es tabaco. La habitación muy estrecha

Pros:

Location and the check in experience

Cons:

The site says it has parking space but definitely not. So it's a lie. The property, where we stayed in 2026 August, was more or less under construction. So, no major issues but I believe it's kind of frustrating for a "less flexible" guest

Just an OK stay 😐
Pros:

The location was amazing and the staff was very helpful.

The reception girl Vy is a superstar, she helped us a lot and was ready to help always.

Cons:

The property was under renovation and no one told us this until we reach there, the ac was not fitted in the room yet, was issue with tv's, reception was a mess and you've to bear the construction noise in the morning too so not a recommendation for another 2 weeks until the property complete the work.

Pros:

Le stanze sono piccoline, e non c'è l'ascensore. Ma tutto sommato si sta bene. Ed anche la posizione è ottima.

Pros:

It was right in the city centre, we were able to book one day prior to our stay. Which was very pleasant

Cons:

It isn’t very accessible if you have big luggage, considering the stairs, but since it’s in the city centre of Amsterdam, we were aware of that.
