8/10 Very good

The room was a lot bigger than expected, so that was nice, however I would only stay there with a partner as the bathroom walls are glass all around. The breakfast was good, only thing is the staff is very panicky about people going in without saying their roomnumber, which is fine, but there is never any staff to greet you at the "wait here sign", so the only way to get the staff to come and take your roomnumber is to walk into the buffet, and then have a panicked staff member run up to you, maybe there needs to be more staff at breakfast. Also be aware that they stop filling up the buffet about forty minutes before it closes. Overall I really liked the hotel, the park at the hotel is also lovely.

Room was very clean, but our bed was on the mezzanine. This is normally not an issue, but I would like to warn older less mobile guests, that the staircase towards the bedroom is steep and small. Bathroom was very modern and clean, but the toilet isn't separate. Breakfast was very good.

The hotel is located on the edge of central Amsterdam but with a Tram stop across the road it made all site seeing and activities easily accessible. The room we stayed in was modern and well-kept and the laundry was changed daily.

6/10 Good

Hotel is going through renovations and currently only one lift works. Given we were on the third floor it was rather inconvenient to get around the hotel. The staff were lovely and very helpful for checking in and out. The rooms are ok. Nothing special so would not book a delux next time as it was not what we expected to get. Other than that it was a lovely place and very ideal spot PSA. They only clean rooms every 3 days if you remember to put out the door sign

Spacious room. Friendly and helpful staff. Awesome park right at doorstep. Nice restaurants nearby about 5-10 mins walk. But metro station quite a distance (about 15 mins) especially with luggage.
Verified review

6/10 Good

The rooms ate a bit pricy for their size as they are significantly smaller than depicted on the website, and felt a bit crowded for two people given the bathrooms were built-in to the rooms after building construction. Our air conditioning was not working, however this seemed to be fixed by opening the window. The breakfast was lovely, and the location was very quaint. Yet facilities-wise this is a fine stay for a night or so, yet anything longer I would prefer a higher-end hotel
