Great location, not so great hotel

The hotel is in a great location - 5 minutes to the museums, 2 minutes to shops and juice bars and 15 minute cycle or tram to the centre. The hotel itself is pretty basic. It is largely self service, albeit it is staffed. Most staff don’t really seem that interested. We asked for a thicker duvet for 2 days and were told it was on its way - it did not arrive. The rooms were tired and worn with evidence of damage that had been poorly repaired. The bathroom was poorly laid out, meaning it largely flooded each time we took a shower. The walls are paper thin, the beds uncomfortable and despite the location, it really is an over priced budget hotel. Probably ok for somewhere to rest off a night on the town, but not great for families or travellers looking for a decent place to stay.

The hotel was in a great location! We loved being in the Museum Quarter rather than right in the centre of Amsterdam. Only downside was that we didn’t have a mini fridge in our room (I’m sure it’s written somewhere, I just didn’t see it). The front desk staff were super friendly and helped us out with many questions we had about the area!

It was over all an ok experience, staff wasn’t very helpful and hotel was outdated. We could hear water being flushed/ going down a drain from the ceiling multiple times through out the day and night. Over all ok in decent area.
