The hotel has a fantastic location, close to metro and many local places of interest, and the staff is extremely friendly. However, the room without a window and above a noisy club impacted the stay. The hotel offers great value for money.

The hotel had a convenient location close to everything in the city, but the rooms were a bit dark without the lights on and looked old. The service was lacking with minimal staff available, and the dining experience was average. On the positive side, the hotel was centrally located and had a nice view over the canal.

The hotel is located above a lively nightclub which plays music till early hours, making it perfect for exploring the vibrant center of Amsterdam. The rooms, although small and with limited views, were adequate for a short stay. The service was inconsistent, with some unhelpful interactions throughout our time there. The dining options were typical continental fare, delivered to the room at chosen times. Overall, the hotel offers a lively atmosphere but lacks in some service aspects.

The hotel is centrally located, making it convenient to explore the city. The rooms are small and lack natural light, but they are tidied daily. However, the lack of ensuite facilities is disappointing. The service is friendly but not exceptional, and additional services come at a cost. The dining options are below average, with room service being the only alternative. The location, although accessible, lacks sound-proofing and can be noisy on some nights.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the rooms were spacious, clean, and comfy, they tended to get quite warm without any controllable heating. The service was friendly and helpful overall, though there were some unhelpful instances during the stay. The location was great, within walking distance to many attractions but could get a bit noisy late at night. The dining options were average, with the continental breakfast being brought to the room. The facilities were decent, but some aspects could be improved.
