Worst hotel I’ve ever been in. There are three bags of someone’s old jeans in the closet and the carpets/beds are stained. My wife and I are sitting in the room at 2a, listening to the loud bass from a basement bar and deciding whether or not to go to the airport 8 hrs early

Fantastiskt läge - dålig service

Fantastiskt läge precis vid blomstermarknaden och oväntat bra och god frukost. Helt okej rum, men hemsk/smutsig heltäckningsmatta. Städningen skulle ske dagligen men vi fick själva hämta nya lakan och handdukar för att bädda om på egen hand. Värst var att det låg en bar precis utanför rummet. Inte mycket till sömn då denna stängde kl.03,00...

Hotel muy bien ubicado, instalaciones antiguas

El hotel esta muy bien ubicado, a una calle del mercado de las flores y de la plaza Spui. Se puede ir caminando a la plaza Dam o a la de los museos haciendo un paseo y disfrutando de la ciudad, pero si se prefiere no caminar, hay una parada de tram justo en la esquina. Tanto la habitación como el hotel necesitarían invertir en mobiliario nuevo, ya que la cama era algo incomoda pero pasable y el armario no se podía tocar, se rompía seguro. Además, yo personalmente le quitaba la moqueta y lo pintaría. Lo bueno de la habitación es que tenia baño privado y estaba limpio. El desayuno también muy bien, variado y bueno . La recepción casi siempre estaba sola por las mañanas, así que pasábamos a desayunar sin la atención de nadie. Eso si, tuvimos suerte a la hora de la llegada e ida y pudimos dejar las maletas en recepción para poder aprovechar el día. En resumen, no esta mal para pasar un par de días y ver la ciudad.

A éviter

Bon accueil à l'hôtel, Petit déjeuner copieux et c'est tout ce qu'il y a de positif. Pource qui concerne l'état général du bâtiment c'est vétuste et sale, les peintures s'écaillent, la moquette tant dans les chambres que dans la salle à manger sont pleines de tâches. L'aspirateur ne doit pas être passé souvent, on a retrouvé des pièces de monnaie sous le lit! La rambarde de l'escalier ne tient plus au mur et vue la raideur des escaliers, c'est même dangereux. Les fenêtres ferment mal ou ne s'ouvrent pas! Porte manquante dans le bac à douche.

Best thing about this hotel Is the location.

The location is great. Central, close to everything, beautiful view, close to grocery store. Kind staff and helpful. Good breakfast that is included. Comfortable beds. Things to be improved on: cleanliness, dusty rooms. stairs were not cleaned. Room had holes in the doors and walls needed painting. There is a very loud nightclub next door - very loud all through the night on a Monday night.

Отличный отель, который привлекает внимание серей ценой и качеством. Шикарное место расположение, удобно для проживания и осмотра достопримечательностей. Отель расположен на канале, если взять номер с видом на канал, вы будуте в восторге. Рядом с отель общественный транспорт, что также очень удобно. Номер был очень просторный, отличный завтрак. Очень рекомендую для поездки в Амстердам этот отель, так как цена его и качество отличное. Обязательно вернусь в этот отель.

The hotel is in a nice area near the flower market. This hotel has a lot of potential but needs an upgrade. Some new carpets etc would do wonders. There is a lot of dirt under the cupboard which clearly has not been cleaned for many years.

L'hotel si trova in una posizione centralissima e comoda per visitare Amsterdam a piedi. La stanza dove abbiamo soggiornato era carina, pulita e con una bella vista sul canale, anche se un po' datata. La colazione a buffet dolce e salata era buona ed abbondante. In generale una buona esperienza.

Mus til husdyr

Hvis man liker mus som springer over gulvet og langs vegger og under møbler i frokostrestauranten mens man inntak sin frokost, og sterk musikk og bråk fra nabohuset til kl 5 om morgenen, natt etter natt, så kan vi befale dette hotellet. Da vi sa i fra om musene fikk vi til svar at det var helt vanlig ved kanalene i Amsterdam, at de anså musene som sine venner. Rommet var utstyrt med én dyne og ett håndkle til 2 personer.

I was kept up all night by mosquitoes. I stayed in another location within Amsterdam a few days earlier without this problem, and did not have an issue walking around, so this should not be written off as an Amsterdam problem this time of year. The location is very good.

Terrible hotel

Everything about the hotel (with the exception of the neighborhood) is bad. Dirty rooms, unfriendly staff, loud restaurant/bar next door, mosquitos in the room, awful breakfast, ugliest shower, 50 year old tv in the room.. are a few bad things about this hotel. Some of it is really not hard to fix but looks like they don't care! Like how hard is it to buy new showe curtains so they don't look that bad. Or how expensive is a brand new tv? How about a paint job in the rooms? I will never come back.
