I stayed here for a last-minute, budget-friendly holiday, and it was a great choice! I had some doubts after reading mixed reviews, but everything turned out better than expected.
The location is excellent – just a short walk to shops and tourist spots. I highly recommend using the metro to and from Central Station; it’s super easy and much cheaper. The hotel itself was clean and comfortable. The only minor issues were the thin walls (I could hear the neighbours, but they were fine) and the water taking a bit longer to heat up late at night – but no big deal. Stairs are a given with Amsterdam too so I didn't mind walking up the stairs.
One of the highlights of my experience was meeting Jasmine, a staff member I spoke with towards the end of my stay. I didn’t interact much with anyone throughout my solo trip but our brief conversation left a lasting impression. She shared her experiences of living and studying in Amsterdam, and it was such an insightful chat. It truly made my get away complete. Wishing Jasmine all the best in her future endeavors – she’s truly a gem!
For the price, it’s an excellent place to stay, and I’d recommend it for anyone looking for a budget-friendly option in a prime location.
