No volveré. Ni lo recomendare
Pros:

Ubicación

Cons:

- No hacen la cama, tiran la colcha por encima
- No tienen snat a todas horas. Tienen bebidas, un bote con patatas churrería y quicos.
- Desayuno correcto pero justo. El último día tuvimos que pedir cosas que faltaban. (Y molestar a la chica que estaba con el móvil)

GREAT LOCATION AND BREAKFAST BUT TINY ROOM ON THE TOP FLOOR
Pros:

Location close to central station and city centre. Nice supermarket nearby. Good buffet breakfast and coffee and drink station available 24/7 for people (including wine and beer). Friendly staff.

Cons:

Tiny room and bathroom (hit my head on various things up in the gable area on the 4th floor so many times). TV didn't work as reception was largely lousy, except for CNN after twiddling with the back of the TV. Very pricey for such a small room (perhaps it's just an Amsterdam thing across the whole city). Bed far too soft, but very clean linen.

NÃO PARA HOTEIS QUE USAM BANHEIRAS EM SUAS INSTALAÇÕES.
Pros:

Da localização.

Cons:

Do banheiro. Banheiro guarnecido com banheira muito alta, o que dificulta pessoas idosas entrarem e sairem dela. Além disso o alto risco de uma queda, com graves consequências: invalidez ou morte.

Centralt läge och nära centralstationen. Bra frukost. Sköna sängar.

Cons:

Det tog lång tid innan någon öppnade för oss när vi anlände trots att vi ringde på både både dörrklockan och telefon.

Pros:

What stood out was the inviting lobby area, it was a multipuropose room, so beyond being lobby it was a break fast space but also a place to enjoy complimentary coffee, soda and wine, a very nice touch that expanded our appreciation for the stay.

Cons:

Rooms clearly a bit old and gave me association back to my student apartment, yet it was charming and worked for our purpose.

Pros:

Lo mejor el servicio de desayuno y snacks disponibles durante todo el día. Ubicación perfecta fuera de la zona más bohemia pero cercana si quieres salir en la noche. Paradero de tranvía a 100 metros y a 300 de Amsterdam Centraal donde pudimos salir a varios lugares fuera de la ciudad. El baño de la habitación tenía tina lo cual fue perfecto para nosotros que viajábamos con una niña de dos años. Ascensor con tamaño adecuado que es un lujo en Ámsterdam. Si volvemos a la ciudad alojaríamos aquí nuevamente sin dudarlo.

Cons:

Por decir algo las habitaciones eran algo pequeñas.

Boutique hotel in excellent position.
Pros:

Excellent location. Breakfast included. Open free bar with all day snacks, cold drinks & wine & beer. Without hesitation our check out was moved to coincide with our departure to the airport. Small, older style hotel.

Cons:

Rooms tight.
