    It’s a little dated and basic - but for the price you pay, that’s to be expected. It’s not very accessible - very steep stairs and a LOT of them!

    The stairs going up to the reception were steep and narrow as the building was an old tradition al building however it could be more clean. No hair shampoo was provided

    Warm room in a quiet place in a very central location. The professionalism of the receptionist was evident and i loved the cat which was described as the boss of the house. The room had a good window with a garden view and city views were great! We were lucky to have sunny days!

    The room was a bit tiny for two people. But, we requested the lowest room available so it's possible that it was actually a single and they were just making an exception for a double.

    We didn't do breakfast.. but the reception staff brought coffee in the morning.

    The stairs to get to the hotel and the room were many and very steep which is kind of dangerous.. Double Room with private bathroom was really small, we barely fit 2 people in there and we are not big or tall people. However it fitted the purpose of our trip

    I really like the location, 10 mins walk from dam square. Very friendly staff. There are a lot of amenities and shops around the hotel.

    The room was tiny. We only stayed 1 night so fine, but it would be too small for any longer.

    The location was great, clean and good staff. Comfortable bed and the room was surprisingly quiet for a busy curry centre.

    The room itself was small which while expected was quite inconvenient. The room was also boiling hot but with the fan it was generally fairly bearable.

    The hotel itself was ideally suited to the centre of Amsterdam. The stairs were narrow but this is to be expected with most hotels in Amsterdam. Having the rooms cleaned and towels changed everyday was a bonus that we didnt expect.

    Room and bathroom very, very small. I do understand it's the layout of the building and there is likely very little the owners could do to change it. Steep stairs also a struggle

    Staff very friendly and accommodating. Excellent central location for walking or biking.. Bike hire shop next door which was really helpful for getting around.

    All in all, my stay was excellent.

    Things like working lights should be checked before guests arrive. Difficult access to adjust the heater (I had to stand on the bed to reach it.) Also, the mirror was too high on the wall and I could only see from my nose up before Zain took the mirror off the wall and set it on the desk. There are 37 narrow, steep stairs to climb from the street up to the first floor. Anyone with bad knees would find it difficult. On the other hand, if you have good knees, the stairs are a good physical workout.

    The location was excellent, as everything is within walking distance. It was good to have a small fridge in the room. My room was actually quiet, being situated at the back of the building. I was not kept awake by King's Day celebrators. The staff were excellent and attentive to making clients comfortable. Very good, trustworthy people!

    The room was tiny (but we knew to expect this). The stairs were VERY steep - not a problem for us but I wouldn't recommend this hotel to anyone with mobility issues for that reason.

    The location (in the Grachtengordel, within easy walking distance of Amsterdam Centraal and lots of good bars and restaurants) was excellent. The room was clean and surprisingly quiet given that the hotel is on a fairly busy road. The staff were friendly and helpful. Bonus points for having a cat :)

    The shower in the bathroom was difficult to use as it was missing a shower head, making it tricky to wash one’s hair. The walls are also pretty thin (understandable for an old Amsterdam building) so you can hear guests walk in and make noise at late hours. As a good sleeper this wasn’t an issue for me, but picky sleepers might want to keep that in mind beforehand.

    Alongside a modest interior and simple amenities, the kindness of the staff at this hotel absolutely made this stay for me. Having made a super last-minute booking to be in Amsterdam for 48h, the receptionist was super friendly upon my arrival and immediately offered tips for the city. My room was small but I found it very cozy, and (despite being able to hear other guests walk in and out at late hours) I got two nights of great sleep. The hotel’s location is fantastic if you need to be out and about in the city center.

    The room is a little small but sufficient. Cold was coming in through the window, but the temperature of the radiator balanced it. The alarm went off in my room at night, I didn't know why, but it was so loud, we woke up scared.There is no elevator, there are narrow stairs. It's not a problem with a backpack, but if you have luggage you may have difficulty.

    Staff with family warmth. They were very interested. thank you all. The room heats up nicely. great location.

    The stairs, but it seems are common in Amsterdam. Also I guess the wood has a particular smell. Not nice, but after some minutes, you get used to it.

    Private bathroom, privacy, good location, great host. It's ok for a short stay. The host is great and kind! The bedroom had a small fridge. Pretty useful! The host didn't have problems with my check-in time. Almost at midnight! Nice detail from him!

    Nothing

    Reception staff were really polite and welcoming, checking we had everything we needed including fresh coffee in the morning. The bed was really comfortable, was pleasantly surprised, very small room but it was expected and did the job. Was great to have a mini fridge and our room was cleaned daily with fresh towels. Location is great, 15mins from the station but more like 5-7min to get into the square, got supermarkets close by - all in all a good stay.

    The place is not exactly a luxury hotel, it's the same as going into an hostel with the only difference that you have your own room and toilets. To avoid if you are traveling with your partner or family

    the location was really close to the city center, 5min walk and you are in Dam square and just outside the hotel you can find a lot of shops and almost everything you need for your stay.
