Emplacement parfait en plein centre d’Amsterdam.
Pros:

Emplacement parfait en plein centre mais dans une ruelle qui permet l’assurance du calme pour la nuit. La chambre pour 4 est grande, conviviale et propre.

Cons:

Nous avons essayé de contacter par message la réception pour une question de bagages et nous n’avons jamais obtenu de réponse.

I do not recommend it as a good accommodation.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

I didn't like the cleanliness, I didn't like the conditions, it was cold in the room.
To get to the room you had to go up and down a lot of scary stairs.
The entrance was hard to find. And scary, without lighting.

Pros:

Konnten später auschecken was sehr toll war da wir über 12 Stunden Autofahrt vor uns hatten

Cons:

Sehr kleines zimmer für diesen preis. Da es aber sehr zentral war war es oke. Tolle wäre es wenn ein kleiner kühlschrank vorhanden wäre wie in jedem anderen Hotel auch.

No elevator, steep and scary stairs. Nice room though.
Pros:

Location is okay. Easy to find by using google map. Close to Downtown, but it's about 20 minutes from the Train station. The room is neat and clean and roomy.

Cons:

The stair is so steep. Had a hard time to bring up or take down even a carry-on luggage. There was no receptionist. Code was provided upon check in online, to open the get before going up to the hotel. Not advisable for senior citizens.

Pros:

Emplacement idéal en centre ville. Chambre spacieuse et comfortable, très propre.

Comme précisé sur le site, l'escalier peut être difficilement accessible pour des enfants ou personnes âgées. Sinon, pas de souci particulier.
