17 December 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Such helpful staff, my friend desperately needed to stay some extra nights and they were fully booked but said they'd do there best, ring sister hostels etc. Eventually space became available and they offered her it immediately! It was all really clean and friendly- and ALWAYS had amazing music on in the lounge area! Great if you don't mind a 15 minute walk to the centre or using public transport. But it was a really nice area and you actually get to see some of amsterdam's more beautiful scenery on the walk there which can be much nicer than the centre.

Disliked: Didn't really dislike much just the distance from everything really- if there was any way a deal could be made with the local trams or buses for a discount that would be good but other than that, no complaints!

25 November 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: The location is excellent. My travelmates and I had no problem getting to anywhere in the city. It is a short walk to downtown and there is a tram stop a couple of blocks away from the hotel. My travelmates and I were in town for the Cannabis Cup, a yearly competition put on by the local coffeeshops. The hotel manager was an excellent guide to the city and shops. I'd go back to this place again for sure.

Disliked: Our shower was at the end of a long room. It was impossible to get into the shower without displaying yourself to everyone else in the room.
