Positively surprising, clean and well worth the money! Strongly recommend.
Pros:

I had a concert at Paradiso, Amsterdam, and needed to stay somewhere for one night. Hotel Vondel Garden was perfect for this! It was barely a five minute walk from the venue, and it was very easy to check in and go in and out of the hotel. I had no problem with arriving back late after the concert, as you get your own digital key for the door, and can lock yourself in and out of the hotel as needed. The room was bigger than expected, too, and the bed was nice. I was very positively surprised, and will absolutely come back, should I be going to Amsterdam for another concert.

Worst hotel experience I've ever had, by a long shot.
Pros:

The only good thing about this hotel was the location.

Cons:

The hotel was infested with bed bugs. We were given the wrong room with two twin beds pushed together with a thin mattress topper. This caused the mattresses to slide apart, creating a canyon in the middle. I have demanded a refund from the hotel which has ignored my messages after a single message denying the presence of bed bugs. (Photos included to show grouped bug bites consistent with bed bugs). My attempts to follow up and address this through booking.com have led to no results other than routing me back to hotel vondel garden. We left 3 days into the stay, found accommodations elsewhere and had to spend our entire morning washing all of our clothes at a laundromat and pay out of pocket for it.

Since the hotel has been unresponsive and booking.com seems to offer no manner of demanding a refund, I have initiated a charge back on the hotel stay with my bank. If this message reaches a rep for booking.com and they would like to make this right by refunding us for this awful experience, please contact me at 1-850-567-5796.

Super handy to shops and transport but walking distance to many attractions
Pros:

The room was budget friendly and it was in a perfect location.

Cons:

A few maintenance issues, the curtain needed to be re attached on both ends. The door to the bathroom was squeaky and the toilet seat needed to be attached, it was spotlessly clean.

For ringe et værelse til 1467 kr. pr. nat
Pros:

God seng, ok badeværelse, venligt personale

Cons:

Værelset - "mindre dobbeltværelse" - på størrelse med enkeltværelse, alt for lille.
Manglende faciliteter, jvf. reservationsbekræftelse (!): Ingen garderobe eller skab - ikke så meget som en knage, se fotos, intet skrivebord, ingen kabelkanaler.

Hotel para un fin de semana
Pros:

El hotel está bien situado, a solo 20 minutos del centro de Amsterdam caminando y con líneas de bus muy cerca. El checking es online y recibes una llave digital por correo para abrir la habitación y la puerta de la entrada desde el móvil, cosa que es muy cómoda. El servicio de habitaciones fue correcto, y es una zona tranquila para descansar, sin ruidos.

Cons:

El colchón de la cama es similar a uno hinchable o de agua, te hundes. Armario no hay en la habitación, solo una estantería pequeña.

Pros:

Estaba muy bien ubicado, a 20 minutos andando del centro y al lado de Vondelpark.

Cons:

No pudimos dejar las maletas a buen recaudo. Nos permitían dejarlas en recepción bajo nuestra responsabilidad y sin vigilancia.
