Absolut unakzeptabel! Das Hotel ist eine verwahrloste u verdreckte Absteige… überall ist was kaputt es riecht es ist verdreckt (haare im Bett, Flecken auf eh schon auseinander fallenden Handtüchern/Bettwäsche, der Teppich ist eine Zumutung u zieht sich durchs ganze Hotel! außerdem null Privatsphäre man hört alles… einfach nur ekelhaft! Es war mit Abstand die grausamste Budget Hotel Erfahrung meines Lebens! Könnte ich würde ich minus 5 Sterne geben

Huone compact kokoinen. Suoraan kaupungissa. Porraskäytävän ja naapurin huoneen äänet kuuluivat sisälle, mutta ei haitannut yöunia. Sisääntulo aulassa snacks automaatti. Vain rappuset joten liikunta rajoitteiselle ei sovi. Vastaanoton henkilökunta mukavaa ja avuliasta. Heineken vanha panimo vieressä.

You definitely get what you pay for with this, and we were there just one night. I will start off saying staff was nice and it was a great location. But the checking in at the hotel a few days down was kinda strange. Immediately walking in the property I could tell it was not clean. The entrance is very dirty. The room size was what I expected, however the floors had white stains all over them. The sheets and towels were clean at least. The worst part though is now that I’m home I have bite marks all over my back and right arm. Looking at other reviews it seems this hotel has had issues with bed bugs. While the price was good for just a night and it was a good location, and friendly staff, I would likely not stay at this location again.

This is a very expensive place for very low quality room. It was dirty and unsafe. All the previous reviews are correct. The only reason I booked this stay was because our Vrbo booking turned out to be a fraud and we were desperate.

Worst experience ever had in a hotel. Booked room leaked water into our bedroom from ceiling. It caused electric discharge with no electricity in the apartment. We received new room for free. Its not clean and space is really small. Definitely not a place to stay if you want to rest and enjoy your amsterdam trip. We were also afraid to get infected with bedbugs. Beware

Bed bugs - didn't care.

I mean, I knew this was a budget stay, so I wasn't expecting much. We just needed a place to sleep and shower while we got on the more important business of exploring Amsterdam. But the rooms were tiny, hot, dirty, dark, and even though they had heat pumps/air conditioning, we had no control over the temperature, so it made them way less helpful. Those things would all be fine, given that I knew it was a budget stay. The problem was the bugs. There was bed bugs. I'm no entomologist, but I'm pretty sure those are bed bugs. I showed reception, and all he said was "Sorry, man". Didn't care very much, didn't offer anything. So, I'd say skip this one, and gamble it with another place to stay.
