Misleading photos, discriminatory staff, constant noise, unreliable Wi-Fi, serious hygiene and security concerns—includi
Pros:

Nothing, it was so disgusting

Cons:

This was one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve had, and I would not recommend Hotel Oscar to anyone.

The photos on Booking.com are extremely misleading and do not accurately reflect the condition of the rooms. What I arrived to was nowhere near what I expected based on the listing.

The behaviour of some staff members left me feeling discriminated against and unwelcome. As a paying guest, I expected to be treated with respect and professionalism, but that was not my experience.

The Wi-Fi was unreliable and frequently unusable, making it difficult to stay connected throughout my stay.

The building itself has virtually no sound insulation. Every bit of street noise comes straight into the room, making it almost impossible to get a decent night’s sleep. On top of that, the timber floors creak constantly, so you hear every footstep from other guests throughout the night.

The most shocking part of my stay was seeing rats running down the hallway. This was completely unacceptable and raised serious concerns about the hotel’s cleanliness and hygiene standards.

I also had concerns about the safety and privacy of my belongings. I did not feel comfortable leaving my luggage in the room, which is not something any guest should ever have to worry about.

Overall, this hotel was a huge disappointment and exceptionally poor value for money. Between the misleading advertising, poor customer service, unreliable Wi-Fi, excessive noise, apparent hygiene issues, and concerns about security, I would strongly recommend staying somewhere else. Amsterdam has many hotels that offer a far better experience for a similar price. I would never stay here again and cannot recommend this hotel.

Pros:

Location was amazing, staff perfectly friendly. Room was fine.

Cons:

Requested twin beds - They were right next to each other (like a double bed, but with separate sheets, which was a little weird). Floor could have been cleaner, and a bit of a small room. Everything fine enough.

el peor hotel de Amsterdam
Pros:

el peor hotel que puede haber en Amsterdam. Ojo con este hotel, está pegado a una disco o Club y por la noche se oye la musica TODOS los dias hasta las 4.00 am. Es imposible descansar. Es una falta de respeto que no te avisen que no vas a poder descansar, HJa sido mi peor hotel con diferencia que he visitado. Ademas´, he tenido que pagar 108€ de mas por una tasa que dicen ellos que han aprovado en Amsteram. Como? si yo ya tengo el precio cerrado 6 meses antes, tengo que pagar por algo posterior a algo que ya he pagado por él? Me parece una injsuticia y aprovecharse de los turistas. DEsde luego que es el peor hotel que jamas he visitado

Cons:

el ruido por las noches de la musica procedente de un local pegado al hotel es insufrible

Pros:

Good location, comfy bed, excellent air conditioning.

Cons:

No spare bedding or towels on the premises when needed in an emergency. We were given a spare single sheet and single duvet cover between the two of us for our double bed for the following 12 hours when my partner was unwell. No paper towel kept on site for me to be able to clean up afterwards. Completely unprepared for basic incidents and then moaned at and told we'd be charged £100 to clean the bedding and towels.

There was mould on the ceiling in the bathroom.
