La peor experiencia de mi vida en un alojamiento de Booking
Pros:

De locatie».

Cons:

Ik reisde naar Amsterdam voor een belangrijk examen en had rust nodig. Ik kon de hele nacht niet slapen door het geluid van hoge hakken, lawaai en de voortdurende bezoeken van klanten aan de vrouw die in de kamer boven de mijne verbleef en zich blijkbaar bezighield met nachtelijke activiteiten. Ik betaalde om te kunnen slapen, maar kon niet uitrusten en het hotel bood mij geen enkele oplossing.

Lugar céntrico y buen precio
Pros:

Lo mejor es la ubicación, está muy cerca a de la estación central. El personal fue muy amable, nos permitieron dejar la maletas unas hora después del check out. No es un hotel de lujo pero se descansa bien, al final lo que uno busca es un lugar para dormir luego de pasar todo el día conociendo la ciudad.

Very simple, clean, and inexpensive accommodation in the city center.
Pros:

It is exactly as described: a basic hotel. The room was clean, and the bed linen and towels were clean as well. The shared bathrooms were cleaned daily, though, of course, it relies on everyone keeping them tidy. The hotel staff were very friendly and ready to help. It is possible to leave your luggage after check-out, which is very convenient. The hotel is centrally located, with the tram stop (Dam) right outside the door. Central Station is very close—just a 10-minute walk away, and a supermarket just a 5-minute walk away. It is an excellent choice for those looking for a clean, no-frills place to rest that offers easy access to everywhere.

Top locatie!
Pros:

De locatie is top!

Cons:

Geen gemeenschappelijke ruimte om even te zitten en/of iets te drinken.

Stijle trap en veel om naar de kamer te gaan op 3de verdiep.
