Donker en deprimerend.
Pros:

Bed was best okee.

Cons:

Kamer in de kelder, tussen de schoonmaakkarretjes, amper licht, geen raam, douche in een 'kast'. Algemeen zeer donker en deprimerend. Na verblijf vroeg ik een factuur, en ook dat was niet mogelijk, omdat ik via Booking had geboekt. Alle andere accomodaties in Amsterdam leveren nochtans wel een factuur af, ookal boek je via Booking.

Pros:

Design meno,de cserebe nagyon sotet az egesz hely. A szobakba nincs rendes lampa.

Reggeli az nagyon a belepo szint volt. De adtak glutenmentes cuccokat ingyen. Nagy +++

Halkabb es nagyobb a szallas mint gondolna az ember.

Cons:

Szobak felszereltsege.. es merete. Giga nagy agy, de nincs hely a borondnek se. Ruhatarolas kulon erdekes megoldas. (Nem jo)

Parfait pour le temps d'un weekend.
Pros:

L’hôtel est moderne et propre, et les employés sont très sympathiques, disponibles et attentionnés.
Il est parfait pour un court séjour avec des bagages cabine uniquement, entre amis très proches, en famille ou pour les couples qui n’ont vraiment plus aucun secret l’un pour l’autre… La taille de la chambre favorise en effet une grande proximité, aussi bien physique que visuelle et sonore notamment du côté de la salle de bains ! 😄

Cons:

Attention toutefois à la taille des chambres : même en catégorie standard, nous étions deux avec seulement deux petits bagages cabine et nous nous marchions déjà dessus. Je ne recommande donc pas cette chambre pour un long séjour. Dans ce cas, mieux vaut choisir une catégorie supérieure en vérifiant attentivement la superficie en m² avant de réserver.

Pros:

The location was pretty good, very close to bus/tram stops and the bus from the airport stopped just around the corner from the hotel. The room was big enough to accommodate 2 people for a short stay, and overall, it was a comfortable stay.

Cons:

The room was very cold even with the AC turned off. I don't understand this, but hotel rooms don't have hooks! Only 2 hooks in the bathroom but with 2 people using more than 1 towel this is just ridiculous. Found some hair in the shower when we arrived, didn't love that.

Bellissima Amsterdam
Pros:

Estetica degli ambienti molto piacevole, un misto di legno e arte. Staff disponibile e gentile stanza non grande ma in linea con le aspettative. Bagno forse piccolo ma doccia super e asciugamani soffici di spugna vera, letto comodissimo.
La colazione sembrava varia, io non l'ho scelta ma passando ho visto presenza di dolce e salato.
Posizione strategica per la zona musei a dieci minuti a piedi, ma comoda anche per il resto della città.
Graditissima la macchina del caffe in camera con capsule di cortesia oltre al bollitore per il te e relative bustine.

Cons:

Credo che le stanze affaccino tutte all'interno, ma proprio per voler trovare un elemento non positivo.
