I didn’t feel safe , they put two first so far away that if we screamed for help no one would hear us. The place was tiny and I just didn’t feel comfortable or safe.

A no-frills hotel choice. Functional and good location. Very tight quarters, but so is everything in Amsterdam. The staff are helpful and friendly, and provide fresh towels and room cleaning everyday. Other tenants staying here can be noisy, but this is not hotel's fault. Overall good, and I would use again. Very affordable as well.

Great central location
Hotel was very close to Amsterdam Central Station and very convenient for the city centre. Rooms recently updated, very comfortable and clean with good facilities. Only word of caution is the property has very steep narrow stairs so if you have any mobility issues request the lowest floor.

EXCELLENT location if you come in by train. Short walk from station, and right on the main tram line. Amazingly quiet given that it is on the main street coming from the RR station. Very comfy bed. Able to store luggage before check-in and after check-out.

Stayed one night in downtown Amsterdam and this room met all my needs. Good shower water pressure, comfortable bed, and quiet for sleep despite being in the middle of a lot of action. Some rooms require going up and down steep stairs, like much of central Amsterdam hotels, so be aware of that when booking!

My room was at the top floor and was not very convenient if you have a big bag to carry with you on the narrow stairs. Room was average and there was dust under the bed.
