Give the night manager a raise ;)
Pros:

The staff were the shining star of the hotel. They really looked after us well, especially the night manager, who gave us a final beer when we came back at 3am ❤️

Cons:

Room was quite small for the money paid (but beautifully decorated and clean)

Nettes Hotel für einen Kurztrip nach Amsterdam
Pros:

Das Hotel ist gut erreichbar im Zentrum von Amsterdam. Parken in der Nähe des Hotels ist möglich, allerdings ist dies extrem teuer (7,50€/Std.). Die nächstgelegenen Parkhäuser sind relativ weit weg, dafür kann man für nur 20 EUR im Heineken-Parkhaus parken. Das Zimmer ist zwar sehr klein, aber geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Es gab leider nur ein Zimmer mit zwei Einzelbetten, aber die waren wirklich gut. Die Ausstattung entspricht dem gängigen Standard. Toll war die große Fensterfront. Das Personal war freundlich und professionell. Die Lage des Hotels ist gut.

Cons:

Kein Hinweis darauf, dass das Parken so auf den Parkplätzen in der Nähe des Hotels so teuer ist. Das Personal hätte allerdings durchaus eine Spur freundlicher und aufmerksamer sein können. Das angebotene Frühstück entsprach dem Standard, war überschaubar in der Auswahl und der Frühstücksraum eher mittelmäßig attraktiv, aber besonders der Preis mit 29,50 € pro Person steht in keinem Verhältnis mehr und ist viel zu teuer.

One night stand
Pros:

The front desk staff were very pleasant and helpful. The room was clean. The bathroom was large.

Cons:

Even though there was only two of us we had a family room. If we were a family it would have been very, very cramped. Very little room for luggage. The shower head needs replacing or cleaning as the water flow wasn't good. As a male, the toilet was not pleasant when sitting.
Even tough Amsterdam is compact the hotel is a little away from things.
