A happy stay and I would stay here again!
Pros:

My own private bathroom was across the hall from my sleeping room. The check-in staff did not explain this to me. It was a very kind and helpful cleaner/handyman who showed me the bath and then the sleeping room. He also explained for my safety to shut the door until it clicked.

Cons:

nothing. It was quiet and a perfect location for many of the places I wanted to go to-museums, restaurants and The Concertbouw. In a very charming and walkable neighborhood.

Pros:

Staff was very polite and helpful, the location of the hotel is awesome (not too noisy and close to the museums). The facilities were good as well.

Cons:

It was way too expensive for such a small room. I wish I could say it was value for money, but honestly, for the money I paid, I expected a much bigger room.
