This is a decent hotel in a good position, close to the center of the city. the room was small (one double bed), not much room to walk around, but we spent 90% percent of the time in the city, so it didn't make a difference for us. the room had all the facilities advertised and all were in decent condition. the included breakfast was ok for me, but a few people were saying it's too little; anyway, it's ok to ask for more food if u need it.
The smell of mold in the room the first time we entered it. we left the windows open everytime we went out, so it didn't bother us after that.

Hotel is very clean. hotel staffs are very helpful. location is perfect (at the heart of amsterdam and only few minutes walking distance to trams #4, #25, #7 and #1. tram#4 will take you to rai convention center and trams#$, 25, 7, 1 will take you the central station which is 15 min away from the airport. so, if you don't mind a small cozy room, the price of 107 euro per day is unbeatable.

Good value for amsterdam but amsterdam is on the whole poor value for money compared to other european cities (eg rome, florence, barcelona, madrid) staff were pleasant, friendly and approachable.
Breakfast is exactly the same very day. as we were staying for 6 days some choice would have been nice.

I had a small 1 bed room with toilet, shower and tv - it was clean and comfortable. no problems. good staff who speak english well. good transport links and the hotel is only a few mins walk from all the fun. overall good value for money.
I have to say that this hotel can be pretty noisey. from my room i could hear a lot of banging when people walk up and down the stairs and people talking in other rooms at times. most nights i stayed out til stupid o'clock anyway so it was always easy to get to sleep but its the getting woken up around 7-9am every day that started to grind.
