“What stands out is undeniably its location-smack in the Red Light District and just a short walk from Amsterdam Centraal, though this also brings noise and some odors. Be prepared for steep stairs, shared bathrooms, and a very basic experience; still, if all you need is a place to sleep, this could work.”
