This hotel was in a great area, we were close to many popular destinations. The room however, was extremely small, having travelled to many European countries we expect a smaller room but we barely had any space for our luggage. We also arrived in a heat wave, and we booked under the impression the hotel had air conditioning as stated online, however the air conditioning did not work and our room was 28 degrees. The nights cooled off but the windows only opened a few inches for safety so we were not able to get any air flow. Overall, for the cost of this hotel we were disappointed with our stay.

Arrived to find the room uninhabitable due to air conditioning, not working. Spoke with the deputy general manager, who said they had no other rooms to move me to. He agreed that I would not be charged. I then notified Expedia. They called him and he said that I was being charged for one night. I went back to him after discovering this and after much discussion, he agreed that there would be no charge. When I arrived home, I found that he has charged me for both nights!

The property and room were very pretty, but the air conditioner was not working and it was very hot in the room. Also when I booked this room the cost was $385. for one night and when I checked my credit card they charged me $427.76! What the heck!! For this reason I cannot recommend this place to anyone. BUYER BEWARE!

Very friendly staff and good location in Amsterdam but we had many issues here. The air conditioning was not working and we couldn’t switch rooms bc the hotel was full according to them. So we had the windows open (as per staff recommendations) and had to deal with mosquitos at night. We were also given the keys to the wrong room (20 instead of 22 with the wrong number in the key holder on our first night so unfortunately we walked into a couple as they were in bed but still awake (not to be too descriptive here) around 2 am in the middle of the night with the reception staff who was guiding us to our room. Breakfast also didn’t look that special. Also Very dusty thick velvet window curtains. Besides the very friendly staff everything else was not great.

Overall, this was a good location for a few days in Amsterdam. We found the staff friendly, and the property clean. It is an old house, and the stairs to the rooms are narrow, so this is not a place for anyone with mobility issues (of any kind) or those that find using stairs (of any kind) difficult.

My room was truly horrible, totally dark caused by the decoration and the fact that the only window was behind the headboard (almost impossible to open). After I managed to peak out I realized the reason, it was facing a wall only a few inches away. The price for this room was totally out of proportion !!!

Rooms and whole hotel environment very dark, my room basically had no windows (hidden behind the bed therefore hard to open curtains and looking at a wall) which considering the price of the stay very disappointing. Staff was very friendly

The staff here was absolutely wonderful! When I arrived at 9am from a different hotel, my room was ready! I stayed close to the center because I came for the weekend to celebrate Kingsday. The location was so close to everything and was even near two of my favorite restaurants! It is a 5 minute walk to the Anne Frank House too. I would highly recommend this hotel and will most likely stay here next time I come to Amsterdam.

Lovely property and friendly staff. Properly greeted us with coming into the property and helped us with the luggages. Room is great and clean. Downside is the room on small side, and stairs in certain area. But overall great experience with this property and highly recommended.
