This hotel is on the major road! I was given #1room in the bst nice and spacious but close to the building kitchen, and noise from ppl. walking by the window and Tram on the street was too much for me, I was unable to sleep. I complained I was given another room #22 very tiny and ugly floor. That place needs to be renovated.

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.

I was fortunate enough to spend my 60th birthday in Amsterdam.. the staff were sweet in helping me celebrate with a bottle of delicious kava and very nice birthday card. The room was clean, breakfast amazing and so nice to taste what good coffee is like, coming from the US I have forgotten! Staff are friendly and very helpful. Will definitely be staying there again if we get back to Amsterdam. Sad to leave!

Room not very nice at all. Very narrow with no bedside tables so can’t put anything next to you. Have to get out of bed by the bottom of the bed! Not very clean down by the side of the bed. Canal view - small porthole type windows. Pictures are over advertising the canal aspect. Room needs a good redecoration. Bathroom slightly better. Shut the bathroom door and the whole shower rail fell off. Water everywhere after a shower as shower curtain not waterproof! The only saving grace is the staff. They are lovely and very friendly and a nice touch we had a note with a gift left on the bed after a day out, clearly listened to what we had said we were doing as a trip. Also the free open bar daily was a bonus. Sadly disappointed in this hotel!

It would have been worth upgrading to a canal view room as my room faced the Main Street which was very noisy. There is no lift and very narrow stairs make heavy suitcases difficult. There is no aircon so my room was very hot.

We enjoyed a beautiful view of the canal. Our room was spacious for 3 people and the bathroom was quite large. We didn't mind walking up the stairs. The staff were amazing and always available to help us. The lounge offered drinks and snacks from 4-6 that made our stay enjoyable. I would highly recommend staying here.
