Helpful freindly staff, very nice studio
The hotels exterior does not reflect the standard of the rooms or staff. it is a bit to far away from the main attractions.

The staff at reception were very helpful and friendly. the hotel has a chic and trendy vibe, but not in a stuffy, up itself way.
The service at the cafe/bar was horrible. there was neither hail, snow, nor rain, but the waiters seemed intent on staying inside the cafe, even when they saw that we were at a table outside.

Very nice hotel just rather expensive and out of amsterdam, couldnt walk into the town. there is a nightclub in the hotel that was very popular with the locals and the bar was very busy on sat night.
The prices, also cost 10 euros to get into amsterdam but the taxi got to the hotel within 3 mins. there is a metro nearby but we had a wheelchair with us so it wasnt appropriate for us.
