Older building renovated into quirky, kitschy boutique hotel. The idea was successful on most things. But not the bathroom. Only a child could use the toilet or get into the shower, which had a solid sliding door that only opened half way.

Great Minus Tiny Room
Everything was clean, people were friendly, and itbwasvin an excellent location. The room was completely small. Im not a big person, but I could barely get around the bed with my luggage out. If youre not claustrophobic, this place is great.

Small but clean and well located
This hotel is very clean, well located and the staff are super friendly. However, our A/C wasn't working, which was fine with the windows open until it rained quite hard and we had to close them - then it was very stuffy. However the staff were very kind and im sure they will fix it before the next guest. Would stay here again for a quick tourist visit

Disliked: Cleanliness
Liked the location (very convenient to museums and public transportation), and the staff was very helpful. The beds, though small, were surprisingly comfortable, and the decor was unique and fun. However, there were some issues with the room. There was no AC and we checked in during a heat wave, so a member of the staff graciously put us in a room at the basement level, which was thankfully much cooler. Despite this, the room had issues with humidity and the bathroom walls and shower had patches of mold and mildew, which only got worse during our stay. Leaving the window open and running a fan provided in our room did little to help the issue, and some clothes I washed by hand took several days to dry and our bath/hand towels were always wet. Though not a major issue for us, it's worth noting that the walls are thin and doors slam, so if you get particularly inconsiderate neighbors, it won't be enjoyable. We were also promised that housekeeping would come by every other day to clean things, but they never came, so the bathroom only got worse. Overall, this place was great for its location and helpful staff, but lackluster in cleanliness and housekeeping services. Still, there are many, MANY worse places to stay in Amsterdam (speaking from experience), so as long as you request a room on a higher floor and insist on housekeeping services, you probably will not have the mold issues that the basement level has. Not sure I'd stay here again, but I would stay in the neighborhood.

It’s worth noting that the images on the site pick the best rooms. Our room wasn’t as nice as the images chosen by the site. t’s worth paying close attention to the description - the loft is a ok size room with a large bed and sofa bed in. It doesn’t leave that much room but is comfortable enough as you would want to be out and about seeing the sights. The bed was very soft which is good or bad depending on your preference. It was very hot whilst we were there and there wasn’t any air conditioning (again check the description as it probably is listed as n/a) but they did offer us two decent fans. Staff very helpful, area is nice and safe, foyer is nice. There is an elevator which is good (and necessary!) We probably would opt to stay a little further out at one of the chain hotels for a similar price in hindsight, mainly so we would have air con!

Do not stay in the summer. DOES NOT HAVE AC
The hotel location is good and the bed comfy. However most of the rooms do NOT have AC so staying here in the summer months is a nightmare if you want to get some sleep. They don’t advertise AC so that’s my bad for not checking. Some of the rooms on the 4th floor DO have AC but they couldn’t move me when I rang reception. I stayed here mid week when the weather was 29 degrees and got 4-5h sleep both nights. Not ideal when you’re in business meetings all day. I would recommend it in winter months but NOT in the summer. At £180 a night for mid week I expected this to be a given. My fault! Don’t make my mistake!

It's well decorated and styled, clean, nice amenities and extras, lovely staff and good breakfast. In a lovely location too, but there is no escaping that it's an old, cramped and poorly sound proofed building and no amount of nice hand soap will compensate for that.

Our family of 4 stayed for 3 nights in their largest room. We had a nice stay. The staff was extremely friendly, the room was modern, clean, and the location was great for waking and taking public trans. The included breakfast was underwhelming. I don’t think the rooms have AC and with only 1 small part of the large window to open in mid June, we were a little warm
