İdare Eder
Pros:

Tesisin konumu çok iyiydi. Manzaram keyifliydi. Görevliler ilgiliydi, güler yüzlüydü, yardımcı oldular :)

Cons:

Bina eski çok dar ve dik bir merdivenden çıkıyorsunuz. Tuvalet çok küçük, dar. Binanın ses yalıtımı da biraz zayıf gibiydi.

Thank you Mario for the attention and support during the day.
Pros:

Mario was really nice and kind. The hotel is like to live in an actually Dutch house. You can feel the experiences.

Cons:

Towels and sheets, there too old, but it didn’t matter to me because I was prepared for something like this hehe.

Centralissimo e strategico, ma non per tutti.
Pros:

La posizione è ottima, dato che la via dove è ubicata la struttura è una parallela alla Damrak, che collega la stazione centrale a piazza Dam, che dista dall'hotel solo 300 metri; a 200 metri c'è un grosso supermercato (catena Albert Heijn) dove poter fare spesa, mentre La stazione è a soli 10 minuti. Staff molto cordiale.

Cons:

Non è una struttura per gente schizzinosa, la pulizia non esiste, anche se i bagni e le docce in comune erano accettabili. Se non siete abituati agli sforzi fisici, evitate gli ultimi due piani, perché le scale sono tante e molto ripide.

Mehr Absteige wie Hotel
Pros:

Das der Hotelangestellte Namens Mario sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend war.

Cons:

Steile enge Treppen. Das Zimmer sehr winzig kein Schrank vorhanden. Im Bett war ein Brett eingelegt worden die Matratze schmutzig. Stassenbahnlärm. Kein Hotel sondern eine Absteige
