Beautiful Hotel
Pros:

Lovely hotel with attentive staff who greet you as you enter and depart, our bags were placed in our rooms for us ready for when we checked in later on. Bed was very comfortable and clean mattress, towels were refreshed and folded daily and overall just a very pleasant stay. Would recommend.

Harika bir vakit geçirdik. Merkezi bir yerde olması, ekstra ulaşım parası vermekten kurtardı. Amsterdamda ulaşım pahalı.
Pros:

Konumu harika, Havalimanından 397 numaralı kırmızı otobüs ile 300 mt yakınına kadar gidebiliyorsunuz. Otobüslerde kredi kartı geçiyor. Amsterdam da önemli yerlere, şehir merkezine, müzelere, gezilmesini muhakkak tavsiye edeceğim voldenparka çok yakın. Karışalama çok iyi. Tesis temiz, odalar temiz ve yeterli büyüklükte. Hergün oda temizliği yapılıyor. Eğer tekrar tatil için amsterdama gelirsem kesinlikle bu oteli tercih ederim.

Cons:

Oda yalıtımı biraz zayıf, yada bizim üst kattakiler biraz gürültücüydü. Sürekli ayak seslerine ve gürültülerine maruz kaldık. Ama genelde sessiz. Odada mini bir buzdolabı olabilirdi. Birde valiz koyacak küçük bir masa gerekli.

Bilerek seçmedik ama odamız, otelin en uç köşesindeydi. Sonuçta 3 gece için 480 eu ödeme yaptık. Kahvaltısı çok güzel am
Pros:

Çok temiz ve güler yüzlü personel

Cons:

Büyük oda seçimimize rağmen oda küçüktü, yataktan kalktığımda Tv ye çarptım.

Good stay
Pros:

Stayed with my mate in a twin room. The hotel is in a great location, with all the major attractions within easy walking distance, and there's also a tram if you want to travel further out.

The hotel was clean, quiet, and check-in and check-out were both quick and easy. The twin room was quite small, but that wasn't an issue for us as we didn't spend much time in it. There were plenty of plug sockets and USB ports, and everything was clean and tidy.

The only downsides were that the lighting was quite dim, making the room feel a bit dark when you wanted it brighter, and there wasn't much space to move the twin beds further apart.

Quant hotel in good location. Book a larger room than small as it’s too small to be comfortable

Room too small for comfort and very expensive

Erg ontevreden!
Pros:

Locatie was goed

Cons:

Wij kwamen aan en ons was een balkon beloofd, niet gekregen. Kamer was zo klein, kon je kont niet keren en je koffer absoluut niet kwijt! Daarnaast liep de douche over als je stond te douchen..

Bij weggaan had mijn vriendin wat met de voet kon amper lopen en heb ik de auto opgehaald om die voor te rijden, zij deed het uitchecken en vertelde dat het rommelig ging, ook niet is gevraagd hoe wij het hebben gehad, ze pakte de kaart aan en liep weg, aldus mijn vriendin.

Nooit weer!

Pros:

The location was good and the beds are very comfy. Slightly small rooms but that’s expected in central Amsterdam and you can’t really go wrong for the price. I would stay again.

Cosy and archaic accomodation close to the Amsterdam center
Pros:

Hotel provides cosy, old fashioned accomodation close to the Amsterdam center. The rooms are quiet and stay cool even during the hot summer. Beds deserve better, non-split mattresses.
