    Nothing really. I got what I paid for.

    The front desk was very friendly and attentive. Check-in was smooth and quick. The hotel is very pretty! Well-decorated & so was my room. Everything was kept clean and no mould or mildew was seen in the bathroom. The bed was especially comfortable.

    Exceptionally well located and affordable

    The breakfast buffet was okay. After reading other reviews, though, I expected a better choice and better food quality. However, given the central location, there are plenty of alternatives around. If you want better pancakes, go to Pancakes Amsterdam, and for bread, go to Brothers Niemeijer or Bakery Jongejans. The buffet is nice for its convenience. The bed was very firm. You might not enjoy your nights here if you like soft and squishy beds. The TV had Chromecast, which is nice, but the Wi-Fi was so unreliable that it made it impossible to watch a series episode all the way through without it disconnecting or freezing—but I guess if you're in Amsterdam, you don't come to watch TV.

    The hotel is exceptionally well located. It's (almost) across the street from the central station, with a tram stop right next to it. The staff was friendly and helpful when we needed assistance or had questions. It was nice to have air conditioning in the room as it was warm. We had a bathtub in the room, which I've not seen at such a low price in quite a long time! Also, the room was more spacious than I thought it'd be for a central location in a European city. The room had a mini fridge with a couple of free drinks in it—very appreciated when it's become usual to have to pay for everything in other hotels. Coffee and tea was also available in the lobby for free all day, which is really nice. While the hotel doesn't have a restaurant, there are plenty of options around – give Takumi a try if you enjoy sushi and ramen, it's right next door and really good.

    The entrance from the street doesn’t look great - there are people loitering on the benches outside and quite a bit of litter.

    My room was on the first floor, so night traffic (walking/mobiles) did create noise. Fortunately, I brought a white noise machine, which helped mitigate the issue.

    It is close to the Centraal which made for ease in getting there. The staff were quite helpful. A good breakfast.

    There was a small error with an early check in and a mix up between staff meaning we almost checked into a room already occupied. We really didn't mind, because we were super early and it was a bonus to be able to check in at that time. The staff got a little stressed at each other over how they did things differently which was a bit uncomfortable. However, it soon blew over. I felt bad for both of them because they were so lovely and just trying to accommodate us. I wanted to reassure them that it was all OK.

    Value for money, quirkier than your corporate type generic hotel. Nice character. Decent breakfast. Very comfy room.. Excellent facilities. Decent shower. Lovely staff. Couldn't want for anything else.

    The water pressure from the bad wasn’t that strong! The cushions were a little too high! But overal I had a really good night sleep!

    The location was superb! Everything was really close and although the hotel was located close to the station and other touristic area’s, there was hardly any outside noice to be heard! The free drinks from the mini bar and the coffee were also a nice surprise!

    We didn't eat breakfast, I think 29€ is far too much. The room wasn't soundproofed and the noise from people walking upstairs was annoying. The staff at the reception could be more talkative and smiling.

    We found the location of the hotel excellent, just 3 minutes walking from the station and convenient for reaching many attractions The room was cozy and had anything we needed for a short stay.

    The area just outside the front doors of the hotel is public space and was often covered with trash. The breakfast was great but by the end of the week it had not been freshened up. I.e. the pancakes were stale and the options for cereal were very limited.

    The location was great.

    I was extremely disappointed with Booking,com would not match prices even though I provided proof. Hotel management provided rates. I spoke to several Booking.com agents, and when emailed rates no follow up response was provided. After multiple correspondence, Price match was eventually denied because of wrong currency.

    Location was near the Central station
