Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although cozy, clean, and comfortable, had some drawbacks such as being in the basement, which made them hot and stuffy. The service was on point with friendly and accommodating staff, though some improvements in housekeeping could be made. The location was convenient for exploring the city and near the park and museums, but the dining options were average despite being varied. The facilities were decent, providing the basics needed for a comfortable stay.
The hotel is perfectly located just a short walk from the center with clean and satisfying rooms but a bit cramped. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. The dining offers a fair selection but could use improvement. The area is well-connected but may require some walking.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The room at the back of the garden had two comfortable beds and amenities like a wall-mounted TV and a small desk. The only downside was the lack of a kettle and complimentary tea and coffee, which would have been a nice touch.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positive and negative experiences. While the rooms in the garden bungalows were nice and clean, the main rooms felt very poor, tired, and somewhat dirty. The service was a bit hit or miss, with some staff members being rather formless or workshy while others were great, very friendly, and helpful. The location was a highlight, with easy access to Amsterdam central, high-end shopping, and trendy restaurants, although the promised room discrepancy was a letdown. The dining options were average, and I opted to eat elsewhere. Facilities were basic.
I stayed in a mini-house detached from the main building, it was Travelodge standard but much smaller. Unfortunately, there was no air-con or coffee-making facilities, and the TV volume control didn't work. The fan's lead was too short to reach a socket, and it was a bit cold at times. On the bright side, I had access to the garden, which was lovely.
The hotel's location is brilliant for museums, restaurants, and cultural events, with excellent transport connections. The rooms, although a bit small and facing the street, provided a less enjoyable experience due to noise disturbances. The service was exceptional, going above and beyond, while the dining was satisfactory but lacked variety in options.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the room was spacious and neat, it looked quite different from what I expected based on the photos. The service was friendly and helpful, but the price seemed a bit high for the value provided. The location was convenient for exploring the city and near many attractions, but the dining options were limited and overpriced.
The hotel had spacious rooms, but a bit odd layout with steps to the bathroom, and some noise from the room above early in the morning. The service was excellent, with knowledgeable staff fluent in several languages. The location was very convenient, close to major museums and public transport. The dining experience offered good quality at a reasonable price. However, the rooms did not match the advertised photos and had only one window instead of two.
