Appena sufficiente
Pros:

Posizione centrale, comoda per girare la città con molti ristoranti. Camera pulita.

Cons:

Camera davvero piccola, senza spazio per muoversi e per appoggiare le valigie. Di notte si sente benissimo la musica del locale sotto.

Convenient
Pros:

Good location, easy check in process, Comfortable bed.

Cons:

Room was on first floor, be mindful you can hear everything and everyone coming into hotel as check in station is on this floor and stairs to next level quite noisy. The bathroom could do with some maintenance or upgrade as mould on ceiling.

Not the best
Pros:

Very central hotel but noise was unbearable! Located right above all of the clubs and bars in the area!

Cons:

Didn’t get any sleep with all of the noise, bars and clubs going until 4/5am and then bin lorry’s starting at 6. Toilet plumbing was broken and made insane amounts of noise, kept us up all night. Shower flooded into the bathroom floor we had to use towels to stop it flooding

Great location, would have been better if we had plans on staying up until 3a!
Pros:

Close to Rembrandt square- lots of restaurants and activities

Cons:

Our room was directly above a night club- which we were not told about. Thumping loud bass from 10p-3a! We had an early wake up to catch a flight the next day-not good!

Great location for our stay. Just the issue with stairs being a bit of a draw back as they are very steep.
Pros:

Location is very good.

Cons:

The stairs to the bedrooms are very steep. Also I would have liked to have had a long mirror available in the room.

Won’t choose this hotel again
Pros:

Convenient location

Cons:

Poor price valeur, very small room, bathroom quite run down with black-out mold in the joints of the tiles. The hotel is in the middle of a key Amsterdam night spot and very noisy until early morning hours (although they mention this at reservations)

Très pratique et mignon mais un peu bruyant.
Pros:

L’emplacement est idéal et le personnel très réactif et aimable. Des casiers sont également à disposition gratuitement pour laisser vos affaires avant check-in ou après check-out.
Les chambres sont jolies, propres et confortables

Cons:

C’est assez bruyant, nous entendions les personnes qui parlent un peu fort dans les espaces communs ou même dans leur chambre comme s’ils étaient dans la nôtre.
Nous n’avions pas réservé la chambre avec vue mais pour le prix c’était un peu triste d’avoir la fenêtre face au mur de l’immeuble d’à côté.
