Really good location, lovely boutiques and cafes around, quite chill area compared to the rest of Amsterdam but not far at all from the center, busy areas or the main train station maybe about a 10-15 min walk, communal balcony available for smoking, we also chose a room with a private balcony which we enjoyed. Staff are friendly and helpful. This is our second time staying here and we wouldn’t go anywhere else we love the charm of it but it’s not for everyone.

This didn’t bother us at all and think it’s probably true for most of Amsterdam but I know some people may want to know, there are lots of steep stairs depending on what floor you’re on and there is no lift so may not be accessible or suit the needs of everyone, bathrooms are small and old fashioned and when we used the tap or shower some water would leak onto the floor. Again this didn’t bother us we love the location and were hardly in our room so wasn’t a big deal.

Location was superb, in reach of all major transport and with access to good places to eat, etc. The view from our room was amazing, looking down from the 4th floor into Raadhuisstraat with our own balcony - heard the church bells in the early evening. The staff were very friendly and helpful. There were a few useful vending machines in the foyer too. Room was serviced every day which we didn't expect. A safe was provided for passports etc. and there were charging points for cell phones etc. Felt very safe there. Although not quite as smart as we had anticipated we wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

Our only issue was that there was a smell in the bathroom (sewage) coming up the plug hole in the basin, which was a bit unpleasant and seemed worse at night although to be honest we were put most of the day.

Staff were extremely helpful, they even let me borrow an adapter for my charger as I had forgotten this! They had maps and were helpful with directions. Property was in a good location with a short walk to the centre. In particular there was an irish lady on reception who was lovely and polite.

Hotel was very noisy and rowdy at times through the night. Walls seemed thin and it felt asthough some people were in your room as it was so loud. Also the windows were very dated so was a cold draft and you could hear constant traffic bypassing.

I accidently booked this hotel and was panicking after reading everyone's reviews. had the review already written in my head on how this was the worst even for someone with slim standards like me. BUT - this place is fantastic. the staff was incredibly nice and helpful, the location is superb and that balcony is a life savior :) My room had a big bathroom with no leakage, even had my room cleaned after the 2nd night. no bed bugs! The stairs are completely like any other place the NL that doesn't have a lift. I'm 38 - was on the 4th floor - absolutely no issues. Yes, my window didn't close very well and the whole complex is very old, but you get what you pay for and the pluses transcends the minuses.

Great location, perfect hotel if you are happy with basic facilities. Bed, bathroom and a balcony, all you need if you just want somewhere to stay for few nights, without wanting to spend hours sat in a your hotel. Comfortable enough bed, hot shower, and clean room. But I would advise to take your own towell, as one supplied was small! Saw 3 different staff members during my stay, and all were pleasant and polite and made for a friendly welcome and check out. As I am aware of how Amsterdam hotel stairs are, I used a bag storage company, Bounce, where you can leave suitcases for €5 per day. I would highly recommend this as I would not have wanted to get my case up 4 flights of stairs!! Bounce use a shop literally 2 doors away from hotel. Great value place to stay, I would definitely stay here again.

I always stay here when I visit Amsterdam it’s my go to hotel , great location & good to have a balcony to smoke on etc

The room on this occasion was very small couldn’t really walk round the bed kept almost falling over & the balcony door was obstructed by the bed so the door would only open slightly apart from this . I love this hotel an will keep revisiting when I come to Amsterdam the room just wasn’t practical for 2 persons

My experience at this hotel was a good one. Indeed, the furniture in the room is older, but the bed and the bathroom were very clean. The staff is very kind, although I booked a single room with a balcony, at the reception I received a double room with a balcony at no additional cost. If you have too high expectations, you will be disappointed. Location is perfect ! Very warm room! I recommend!

All good !

The location is brilliant. Staff are very friendly. Perfect for the price point. Do not expect the Hilton hotel. We had a triple room and it was perfectly comfortable for a short stay. I would not recommend this hotel for an extended stay.

The shower in our room was part of the toilet, so always a mess after a shower, not a deal breaker, but just not to my personal liking. The stairs are very steep and small landings but it is actually an experience and a staircase not to be found in many places.

Staff lovely and very welcoming. Room was clean and bed was made every single day. Bed was very comfy. Bathroom served all needs, and had a hairdryer. Location of the hotel was brilliant, around a 5 min walk from dam square with two tram stops at either side of the hotel. Hotel were also great with communication before arriving due to a delayed arrival.

The hotel is dated, but it serves the purpose. It is clean, it’s warm, you feel safe and you are right in the centre of Amsterdam. It’s much more of a b&b style than chain hotel but this adds character. I would stay again.

Staff were all friendly and welcoming. Room v clean, comfy bed, good shower. Enjoyed the balcony. Great location but noise didn't bother me. Nice traditional building.

Could have done with a kettle, cups and tea making bits in the room or proper cups and milk in reception! The balcony was tidy except the window boxes which had weeds and fag ends in them.
