The location of the hotel is very good, canal cruises museums, markets and restaurants are all close by. The staff is super helpful and nice, recommendations are great too. The lobby is also beautiful. Earplugs are provided.

The rooms can be quiet noisy. This noise does not come from outside but rather from inside the hotel. It is probably caused by the ceiling solution that is installed. However this did not ruin our experience at all.

NA But coffee available via machine, for 2 euro! Petty when considering paying 300 euro anight for room.

Paying for making own coffee. Having a loud,drugged , abusive person in next, who after our complaints was evicted .

Clean & simple hotel with friendly & helpful staff! Great location close to public transit and the Albert Cuyp market which I highly recommend! Front desk will give you reccs on food, etc. Room was small but as described!

Hotel description/summary should make the accessibility issues more readily apparent. It wasn't an issue for me, but I could see if being an issue for others and a bad surprise upon arrival. Stairs are VERY steep, shallow, and winding. Elevator is TINY (tight fit for 1 person with carry-on sized roller bag and tight duffel) - not a suitable option if you are claustrophobic and not suitable if in a wheelchair, etc. I listed an early check-out time on Booking.com and no one was at the desk and there was no key drop - I left key on counter and messaged the hotel so it wasn't an issue, but process could be clearer.

The location, the cost, cleanliness, and the overall comfort

The room was cool to cold even with the radiator turned up to 5. When it rains, the downspout just off the corner of room 204 makes a lot of noise of water banging onto metal.

Great location.  A 2 min walk to a Metro stop multiple tram lines.  It's a 10 minute walk to the museum campus.  There's bars and restaurants within walking distance but it's also a quiet residential neighborhood.  I never heard any noise from the street.   I stayed in a Comfort Single Room which was plenty of enough space for me.  I was on the ground floor, but I didn't find it noisy.  You will hear people going up and down the stairs, but I mostly heard them in the morning when people are leaving.  Heat is provided by a radiator, which can get the room quite warm if you want.   There's a TV in the room with several english-speaking channels (if that's your language).  The lighting is good and the shower was quite warm.  There's an electric kettle in your room for tea.  The only thing the room needed was a small refrigerator.  That may be the American in me, but I would have loved to have one for my water bottle or to store food.

The bed was ok. Not the best, not the worst. It also would have been nice to have coffee or water provided for free.

Every staff person I met was incredibly kind and helpful. I stayed in two different types of rooms when I was there, one in the main building, and one in a side building. Both were excellent. It's a quiet street but a central location to explore Amsterdam.

The walls are thin, so if someone is talking in the room next door, you will hear them. Fortunately, the guests are mostly quiet at this hotel so it's not a big issue. (The street noise is very minimal, and almost nothing when you close the windows).

Can’t beat the location for the price! The staff was very nice and helpful.

A bit noisy, small rooms but it is Amsterdam :)

The hotel was situated on a quiet residential street near the museum Quarter. The hotel was really clean and nicely furnished. Our room was big with a smallish bathroom, but the shower was good with plentiful hot water. Comfy beds and plenty of storage for clothes etc. Lots of transport links, canal boats trips nearby, lots of restaurants in walking distance

The hotel didn't serve breakfast but that suited us. Lots of nearby cafes and you could eat your own in the dining area. The hotel would put things in the fridge and provided plates.

This Hotel and staff are really lovely! We were greeted with hot towels and amazing service and even got a little farewell present. Absolutely beautiful lobby /firmer breakfast room. The location is really quiet but super close to a tram and a metro to get to all important places fast. Absolutely exceeded our expectations.

Unfortunately there are 2 very high steps to get to the hotel, so keep in mind for accessibility. If you get a room by the elevator, you might hear it go up and down.

Location is awesome. It's accessible through metro and tram. City center is 20 min walk away which you will not notice due to the nice sceneries you'll be passing by. There's a grocery near by for your immediate needs. Famous Albert Cuyp Market is a few mins away. I also love that thetly gave a simple souvenir which makes the whole stay very heartwarming. They even have a note with the owner's photos on it as you enter the room. Truly shows care to their customers.

Aside from the room is really small for the price I paid, I can't think of anything else. But out of all the options, this is one of the best you can get for a private room with a private bath room. Good for solo travelers.
