“In my opinion, while the location is convenient for reaching the Heineken brewery and Rijksmuseum, potential guests should be aware of the steep stairs and potentially small rooms. The helpful staff stands out, though cleanliness and noise levels may be inconsistent. For budget-conscious travelers who prioritize location and service, this could be an acceptable choice despite some drawbacks.”
