The staff are so nice! The location is awesome for walking and public transportation. It’s close to Amsterdam Centraal Station so using the trains and tram was very convenient. We had a city view and enjoyed seeing the canal.

This hotel boasts a fantastic location, just a short stroll from Centraal Station, making it incredibly convenient for exploring Amsterdam's attractions. Nestled in the heart of the city, it offers easy access to numerous sights and experiences. The staff were exceptional, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout my stay. My room was peaceful and comfortable. While the bed could have been a bit softer, that’s just a matter of personal preference. Overall, I would definitely return and stay here again.

Helpful friendly staff. Centrally located. Basic rooms, but clean. Stairs only! If you have any type of mobility issues, this isn’t for you. Would recommend for a relatively well priced room.

The location was unbeatable, walking distance to most everything and to the train, which took us to the central station from the airport in minutes. Clean and comfortable place with helpful and friendly staff. FYI, there is a laundromat around the corner and ample coffee places for breakfast. planning on coming again.
