Liked: It was great that we could rent bikes at the hotel.

Disliked: When we checked in the linnen wasen´t changed bt covered with long black hair. We told this to the receptoinist that came to check and brought the housekeeper. Thel linnen was changed but first after a little hassle where the housekeeper insisted on that he already had changed the bed. Of course mistakes happen. It would just have been a better experience if we didn´t have to argue with the housekeeper. No wifi in the rooms.

Liked: Bicycle Hotel is wonderful! We booked at the very last minute due to hating our original accommodation in Amsterdam. Bicycle Hotel were very accommodating and the room we stayed in was wonderful, private, clean and with a great view of the street. The breakfast is amazing, a full European spread of cheeses, meats, traditional Dutch breakfast bread and tea and coffee. After such a bad start to our trip with our dodgy first hostel, Bicycle Hotel really saved the day! I am going to recommend this place to anyone going to Amsterdam and will be back myself!

Disliked: Vivian left no negative feedback.

Liked: Breakfast was GREAT. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was small but clean and comfortable.

Disliked: Location wasn't perfect, but well conected to the centre by tram and night bus (20 minutes). The stairs are very steep, but it seems that's the way they are in Amsterdam.

Liked: The wifi connection in the room was good. Breakfast was included, and very nice.

Disliked: We had a private twin room which felt a bit squeezy because there was about only 50cm walking space between the two beds. The spiral stairs were really scary because each flight had many steps and each step was not deep enough to fit the whole foot and we were almost getting giddy walking on them.

Liked: Very friendly staff, cozy atmosphere, located on a quiet street, easy to find, the bicycles we rent were in very good condition (totally worth the money), nice breakfast, hot water all the time. A good low-budget choice overall.

Disliked: Pretty far away from the historical centre of the city, thought it was closer (about 20 minutes by bicycle, over an hour by foot). Didn't check where De Pijp District is on the map though, before booking. Double private room was just enough for two persons and their stuff (would like a little more space). Finally the stairs, were narrow and steep, wouldn't recommend this for elder people or people with disabilities.

Liked: Bicylcle hotel had character. Friendly staff made us feel like arriving back home. Also great location for those (like myself) who don't care too much for the hassle in central amsterdam. Close enough for everything even if not located in the buzz of it. A big + for having computer for customer use. Not just the wifi.

Disliked: Does have quite steep stairs, but isn't alone with that fault in amsterdam.

Liked: We had a nice breakfast. The hostel was clean and the staff were friendly. The hostel wasn't central, but the central part of Amsterdam is swarming with noisy tourists in the summer, and the tram is not expensive and goes to very nearby.

Disliked: Steep Stairs... apart from that not a lot!

Liked: Great location, renting bikes was a real plus and lots of fun, in a beautiful area, only a few minutes from the centre but not too close so you don't get all the touristy bustle and noise and dirt that you get in the centre. The staff were very helpful, the building was quaint (be careful on the stairs) and clean and the breakfast room was very nice. The breakfast was nice and healthy and plentiful.

Disliked: The shower drain was clogged so you showered in two inches of muck, but it was bearable.

Disliked: Hotel could do with a spring clean and a kettle in each room. Stairs are very steep so if you're elderly, or bad knees, avoid.
