It is in a good location but it is quite loud, always smells like urine outside. The stairs are ridiculous. Breakfast is bland and tasteless. It would be fine for <€75 night but it is not. Rooms need fans and modern TVs, they are maybe 300mm ? People smoke in rooms though they are nonsmoking. I would not stay there again if given the option.

Great location for solo travellers. The stairs are small and twisty so don’t bring large luggage or heavy ones to this location.

In the heart of the redlight!
The place was the best trip to the redlight yet, this hotel is located right in the middle of all the action, you can leave the window open and hear the festive atmosphere all night. Literally next to some of the best windows the district has to offer and right across the canal from Casa Rosso. Bar downstairs in open 24/7. Rooms are what you can expect in the RLD, it's part of the charm. Includes breakfast in the morning. I miss it already.

Walkable to Central Station (850m). Convenient to all kinds of restaurants. Staffs are friendly and approachable. They provide you with advice for visiting Amsterdam. Breakfast is good. It's hot in the hallway and room, but you can open the window during the night to cool it down a little bit. Shared bathroom and restrooms are really tight. Stairs are steep for big luggage. Overall, worth the budget for a place you want to visit.

I have mixed feelings about our stay. The staff was very nice. They made us feel welcome and safe as two females traveling alone. The street noise was very loyd until around 3 am nightly. Saturday night was particularly bad. However, this is to be expected in this area. The room wasn't posh or luxury by any means and could probably use a deep clean/paint job. There was no noise from within the hotel. We really appreciated the breakfast as it was one meal we didn’t have to worry about in the day. Overall the stat got the job done for a quick European jaunt. Id recommend to a night or two stay and for those that are looking for a party in the red light district. If you are looking for luxury and comfort this is not the place for you. Thank you to the kind and friendly staff!

The HEART ❤️ of the Red light district ‼️
If location is everything then this places THE place to stay. 24 hour bar renter /front desk. Not fancy, bare basics with a bathroom/toilet that’s shared with one of the rooms.Hot showers and an old classic look of a pub that rents out basic clean rooms. Very clean,Well Managed and very secure.I would like to stay here again .

Shared toilet and showers, lots of street noise, beds was hard but clean. the security door is in the middle of the stairs so don't stay here if you have any luggage. Overall overpriced for a city as walkable as Amsterdam. No need to stay in the Red Light District when it's a 10min walk to some much nicer areas. Included breakfast was typical European fare: breads and cheese and jam, not bad.

Quick stay in central AMS.
Central location, easy to get to. 10 minute walk from AMS Central station. There is also Nieuwmarkt Subway about 3-4 min walk that can take you to AMS Central or AMS Airport. There are plenty of restaurants and stores nearby. There is also a supermarket, Albert Heijn, which has the best prices for food and drinks on the next street over. Hotel wise, it is not the best, the plumbing had slight issues in the room, in-room sink would make a noise and drain slowly. Showers and bathrooms are shared and were clean. They are for men.women. The stairs are like all AMS hotels, they are steep, not recommended if you carry large luggage. We do fine as we only carry one bag/light. They have free breakfast, not fantastic, but great since everything costs money in AMS. Bar is open with beer and liquor. Plenty of people stop by for drinks and to chat with, very entertaining to people watch. Room has heater. Room was stuffy, but opening windows helped. This stay was for getting rest and ending our trip to catch a flight. Place felt safe, staff checks who enters hotel. We saw single women, couples stay at hotel. Most were ok with their stay. Staff were good to talk to and gave local info/transportation help. It was great location to have access to bathroom near the city center.

Well the review should be in 2. One for the personnel, they were great, fantastic, always open to help you. Now the property, well is in the middle of the red light Distric (depending what you coming for; could be convenient or not), that implies noises, people going around late, etc. It’s not a place for families; that’s for sure! The place is not the Caesar, the reception it’s in the bar downstairs; and I am not criticizing, I am describing literal how it is. Like I said, this is Europe, and it’s different. I travel solo, and I have been in different places, some worst, some better. One thing that they should work on is in change the pillows, beds, and bedsheets. Like I said before… depends what you are looking for.

Very basic rooms in a fun location in the heart of the red light district. While I knew the rooms would be basic before I arrived, I had no idea how indifferent management was to basic bathroom design (overflowing drains, shower curtains stapled to stay up, mold due to total non ventilation). Beside the bartenders on the ground level, there was no one in charge. The room got major afternoon sun and only one broken fan was available to circulate air.

Unfit for a hotel. This is a youth hostel!
This is not a hotel. This is a hostel. We booked this based on the 10/10 reviews which are RIDICULOUS. We checked into a bar and climbed very steep stairs to the attic where I couldn’t stand. The twin beds were very uncomfortable, the carpet had vomit stains and there wasn’t a bathroom in the room, only on the next floor down, shared with 5 other rooms. We spoke to the bartender who said we could leave now and get a refund on half of the nights (2) but we had to pay for the first two nights. $300 for nothing. I understand that he lost a booking but this place was really bad and we booked another hotel (Rho hotel) for the same price and it was SO MUCH BETTER. Do not stay here unless you’re in college and want a crash pad.
