Eine Jugendherberge, wie sie sein muss.
Pros:

Super Nähe zum Bhf Amstel, von dort aus ist man blitzschnell überall in Amsterdam.
Fein, dass es eine Seife beim Waschbecken gab, und für jeden ein Handtuch.
Ich mochte auch die Plastikmatratzen, dadurch wusste ich, dass keine Bettwanzen möglich sind.
Kaffe war sehr lecker, top Cappucchino !

Cons:

Zimmer nur oberflächlich sauber (aber dafür natürlich günstiger) und unglaublich klein. Wir waren zu 5 in einem 6Bett Zimmer, unser WC zu Hause hat diselbe Größe. Wir reservierten ein Doppelbett, bekamen aber nur Stockbetten. Dazwischem konnte man gerade so gehen. Frische Handtücher und Room Service habem wir jeden Tag angefragt, sie kamen aber nie, bis zum Schluss des Aufenthaltes nicht.
Für die Waschmaschiene muss man eine App herunterladen, und alle personenbezogenen Daten angeben. Nervt ein bissl, aber die Maschiene wäscht sauber. Das Frühstück ist leider nicht so toll (vielleicht sind wir Österreicher auch verwöhnt) aber von jedem Produkt das billigste was auf dem Markt zu finden ist. Die Auswahl bescheiden, die Qualität der Lebensmittel miserabel. Wir haben uns täglich von fettigen Croissant und Kaffe ernährt, den Rest konnte man nicht essen. Auf den Beispielbildern auf der Homepage ist mehr zu sehen als man dann tatsächlich vorfindet.
Der Herr an der Rezeption hat uns 15min warten lassen, er war am PC wohl sehr beschäftigt. Da wir unseren Zug erreichen mussten, fühlte ich mich gezwungen ihn zu stören damit wir auschecken können. Dann hat er uns umgehend bedient.
Wäre schön wenn die Mitarbeiter selbst auf die Idee kommen, mal einen Blickkontakt aufzunehmen, zumal ich die ganze Zeit 1m vor ihm stand.

Günstiges 6 Bettebzimmer mit guter Bus und Straßenbahn Verbindung
Pros:

Das Zimmer war klein aber fein . Die Betten waren bequem und sauber. Man hatte alles was man brauch.

Das tolle am Hotel war die Gemeinschaftsküche, morgen haben wir uns lecker Kaffee gekocht und man hätte auch kochen können. Ausserdem kann man dort seine Wäsche waschen. Wer keine lust auf Frühstück machen hat. Kann auch vor Ort Frühstück gehen.
Das Hotal hat viele kleine Plätze zum Chillen oder spielen.

Cons:

Hab keinen negativ Punkt gefunden
