I stayed for two nights and it was much better than I expected. Convenient to Tram No 4 for centre of Amsterdam and within walking distance of Eurolines Bus Station. Good breakfast buffee and overall I thought the hotel was good value

"Variety of food during breakfast was perfect"
Pros: Variety of food during breakfast was perfect. staffs was really helpful! i was impressed that even though this was a 1 star hotel, they never missed to refresh our room.. :)
"Friendly staff, basic hotel only few tram stops to center"
Pros: Friendly staff, basic hotel only few tram stops to center.
Cons: Room facilities poor: broken alarm clock, no hooks and barely any storage, radiator thermostat stuck out into the bed so you caught your back on it. bed bugs - both got bitten! shared shower had toilet in same room so often waiting for people to have long shower before you can use toilet.
Pros: Just about enough for us. you get what you pay for : it's like in a hostel, but better, since you can avoid sleeping with 6 people in the same room. the staff is really nice and helpful. the breakfast is good too.
Cons: Hotel flipper is a bit far from the city centre, although if you take the tram, you'll be there in 10 min. we walked most of the time : the hotel is about 5km from centraal station. the walls are thin but we got some nice quiet neighbours. you have to count on luck for that.
Cons: The six square meter twin room with shared toilet and shower in the corridor was an absolute rip-off for 220 eur a night.

Pros: It is managed well and run like a proper hotel, and despite the size of the bedrooms, i cannot deny that they and the bathrooms are impeccable.
Cons: Having backpacked a lot around east asia, europe and australia, i can comfortably say this was the smallest room i have ever slept in. i have never felt claustrophobic in my life, but i found this room uncomfortably small and had trouble sleeping.

"This hotel is not in the middle of town (it's a short tram ride then walk..."
Pros: This hotel is not in the middle of town (it's a short tram ride then walk from amsterdam centre). this mean it is very quite. the hotel staff were more useful than the tourist information, and willing to help with directions, bus times prices etc. the room was basic, but spotless, warm and had a great shower.
Cons: The hotel has very steep stairs to the rooms, but then again this is the same everywhere in amsterdam. so it's not very disabled friendly.
