The hotel isn't quite what we expected from the pictures online, needing some updates, and the small rooms didn't leave much space for our luggage. However, the location is great, away from the noisy center, making it easy to reach central parts of Amsterdam. The dining experience was average, with limited choice every day. Despite these downsides, the service was delightful and always friendly and helpful.

The hotel rooms are tiny, perfect for solo travelers who just need a place to sleep but may get noisy due to the adjacent building. The service is extremely kind and helpful, offering advice for a great Amsterdam trip.
