Uitstekende locatie en prima verblijf
Pros:

De ligging is perfect!

Cons:

Niets. Klein detail, het water in de douche werd soms koud en dan weer warm.

Hotel confortevole a due passi dal centro.
Pros:

Hotel vicinissimo al centro. A 5 minuti a piedi c'è un traghetto che ogni 4 minuti ti porta gratuitamente alla stazione centrale. La camera è molto spaziosa e luminosa, ben riscaldata, dotata di ogni confort. C'è anche una cucina in comune per che volesse utilizzarla. Il materasso è comodo.Lo staff è disponibile e sempre presente. Risponde prontamente ai messaggi anche per ogni piccola necessità.

Cons:

Di notte la camera non è completamente buona, andrebbero sistemate le tende.

Pros:

Vriendelijk personeel. Check in ging heel snel en voelde me meteen thuis in het hotel. Kamer was top! Bed lag goed. En super fijn dat je nog een gedeelde keuken hebt. Prijs kwaliteit was het echt uitstekend!

Cons:

Ik miste nog een grote spiegel in de kamer. Er is nu alleen in de badkamer een spiegel boven wastafel. Als je naar een feestje gaat oid en je beide moet klaarmaken, is dat niet ideaal.

Room full of character and nice quiet area
Pros:

A cute room full of character and fun decor in a nice quiet area of Amsterdam. Lovely Antrianna came to meet us for a late check in which was so appreciated! We arrived on a late Eurostar and just had to hop on the free ferry and walk for 10 minutes to reach cafe modern. So nice to be away from the crazy business of Amsterdam central, but also so easy to reach. Recommend cafe Kepler for great breakfast and coffee in the morning

Cons:

Small thing but the radiators were both on zero when we arrived so was a bit cold. They did warm up quickly though so we were toasty in the morning

Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo in un alloggio caratteristico
Pros:

Posizione fuori città ottima! Ti fa vedere Amsterdam sotto un altro aspetto ma Comunque comoda per raggiungere il centro. Lo stile è proprio di un’abitazione Olandese.

Cons:

Un po rumorosa

Barrio tranquilo y muy cerca del centro
Pros:

Muy cerca del centro, al que puedes llegar en un ferry gratuito a 10' andando. Barrio tranquilo. Alojamiento con calefacción, cama muy cómoda y diversos utensilios de cocina y algunos extras para desayunar (café, azúcar,...). Habitación y baño muy grande.

Cons:

Había un par de tramos de escaleras bien inclinadas, por las que había que andar con cuidado.

Unique, witty, warm and relaxed
Pros:

This a unique, witty place to stay offering a very comfortable bed, warm rooms and great coffee is the ideal place for those looking for authentic Amsterdam. Yes there is a little noise upstairs for half an hour in the morning, the entrance is full of stuff but it’s a working building with large rooms full of light and atmosphere, we loved it and felt at home.

Cons:

Being picky, a door handle came off in my hand but ha-ho a war started while we were there so I’m not going to cry over that.
