Excellent location, beautiful room with canal view. Very friendly and helpful staff. Nice breakfast. Free drinks for 2 hours a day was amazing! Some areas of the hotel look like they could use a lick of paint, mainly the stairs, but didnt affect our stay negatively at all

Nice location and easy to reach via Metro underground train from station, plus they have free luggage storage. There's a supermarket just 5 mins walk away. This is our 3rd visit and each time we find the staff really friendly. Happy hour is a lovely bonus and self serve. Didn't experience any noise on back of hotel and be prepared for very steep steps but a great view over the canal.

We had a wonderful stay. Pilar was excellent—very kind, welcoming, and helpful throughout our visit. The hotel is perfectly located, making it very convenient to explore the area. They also offer a fabulous complimentary cocktail hour, which was a lovely touch, and the room was very comfortable. My only complaint was that the room was quite warm. The air conditioning was not working, although they did provide two fans that we had to use during our stay. Other than that, everything was excellent and we truly enjoyed our time there.

The room was very cozy, clean and the staff so friendly and helpful. Stunning view to the canal and the bathroom was very spacious and enjoyable. It was a little challenging to go all the way up using the stairs. The steps were very narrow and the room was on a third floor, there is no elevator. It was manageable. I had a pleasant experience.

A little bit further out from the centre, so it is less hectic. 3 min walk from tram4 stop and 10 min walk to Rijksmuseum. No getting away from the stairs so no use if you struggle as these are typical canal house - very steep & narrow. Room clean & large. If you book 1 of the suites , ask for canal side

Hotel was clean and tidy and in a good position in the city. Breakfast was very nice. The staff were very friendly and couldn't be more helpful. Overall, very pleased with the stay at the hotel. One small issue was a broken toilet seat which was reported on Sunday but not fixed before we left on Wednesday.
