WestCord Art Hotel Amsterdam 3
Great value, very clean, cool / modern decor. It’s a bit out of town but there’s a bus stop right outside which gets you to the centre of town in 10 mins. You can also rent bikes directly from the hotel for €15/day, or an uber is ~€10. Everything you need for a city break in Amsterdam
