“In my opinion, this hotel provides a quiet, discreet base near the Amstel, well-situated for exploring Amsterdam's cultural highlights. Its historical setting is nicely updated, and the option to rent bikes directly from the property adds to the appeal. While some rooms might be compact, the location and updated facilities, in my view, make it a solid choice.”

The location was spot on. Super close to everything i wanted to see. daily room cleanings were a big plus, i really appreciated that! i had a canal view from my window too. Such a treat to wake up to.

The stairs were quite steep. Something to be aware of, especially with luggage.

the stairs were much. even for this city standards, this is not the place for you if you are sharing with family. the only separate rooms are on the top floors.

the daily room cleaning service was very effective. my room, the large double room, offered a canal view, a plus. the private bathroom in my room (room 404) was very convenient. i liked that i could easily walk to most attractions in under 30 minutes, and the metro was close.

steep stairstiny bathroom

I found a couple of things disappointing. the stairs were really steep and narrow. It was hard to get my luggage up (even though i travel light). also, my room's bathroom was tiny. i practically had to sit sideways on the toilet because it was so close to the door. (i wish i had known that before i booked it).

room cleaningprivate bathroommetro locationthin wallstricky stairsmissing receptionist

Daily room cleanings impressed me. I had a private bathroom in the room. The hotel is close to the metro so that was amazing. The location had a walkable distance to lots of things too.

The walls are really thin. You can hear everything the neighbors do and that is very annoying. Stairs were also tricky to use. There was no receptionist when I came.
