Pros:

Stanza sufficiente per quattro persone, non c'è armadio. Bagno un poco risicato ma con il necessario. Ambiente ordinato.
Come per tutte le case nel centro storico la scala per arrivare al piano è piuttosto ripida. Posizione centralissima.

Great location and comfortable room
Pros:

The location was ideal. Just off Dam Square. Facilities were simple, but everything needed for a short stay.

Cons:

Nothing really. Only slight issue was we couldn’t use the safe, but not really necessary for this stay.

Pros:

La posizione, la pulizia e c'era anche l'asse da stiro.
La stanza era molto spaziosa.

Cons:

Scale molto ripide, ma so che ad Amsterdam è normale che siano così, il tappeto in camera e il bagno un po piccolo

Pros:

The location is perfect. Everything is accessible by foot, the room was clean and everything was provided. I would recommend a safe closet to store luggage before check-in and after check-out.

Bon emplacement
Pros:

Bon emplacement, équipement de base fonctionnel.

Cons:

Escalier d'accès très raide, cela aurait pu être précisé.
L'accès est dans une ruelle à l'arrière d'un resto. Très bruyant.

Für Jugendliche, die die ganze Nacht im Ausgang sind ideal. Für Familien weniger.
Pros:

Es war sehr zentral gelegen.

Cons:

Leider oberhalb diverser Fritten- und sonstigen Ess-Buden-Küchen. Man konnte im Zimmer die Fenster nicht öffnen, da sich die Lüftungen dieser gleich neben den Fenstern befinden. So bekam man im Zimmer fast keine Luft.

Pros:

Locatie. Een leuk koffie hoekje

Cons:

Steile trap. De staat van de kamer, bijvoorbeeld douche gordijn, douche kop moet je vast houden in je hand, verlichting ontbreekt op sommige plekken, als je hebt gedoucht dan kun je op de kamer niet meer wezen want er is geen afzuiging. Het is er bloed heet terwijl wij er half oktober waren met een buiten temperatuur van 18 graden. We kwamen er na het boeken bij booking pas achter dat het hotel geen receptie heeft. Maar toen hadden we al betaald dus je kunt niet terug. Alles is in het Engels. Terwijl ik in het Nederlands boek. Tv waar je geen programma op kan krijgen. Want er is geen abonnement. De gordijnen kunnen niet helemaal dicht, dus het is niet helemaal donker. Het daklicht zou ik persoonlijk ook verduisteren
