"Location is excellent with tram 9 at the door going to the centre"
Pros: Location is excellent with tram 9 at the door going to the centre. and next to artis zoo!
rooms are spacious for amsterdam and very clean and will be cleaned upon request. big +
no breakfast but good options (restaurants/cafes) on groundfloor. great chinese on the opposite corner and also koosje cafe is really good.
Cons: Prepare for steep stairs - amsterdam style :)
one staff was very rude when i rang the bell because i forgot the key when going out and could not get back into the hotel (door closes and can be opened only with key). he told me after 5 minutes of ringing the door and calling reception on my phone that he was fed up with people always forgetting their keys and that it was too bad for me...astonishing! in all fairness i must say that the manager was extremely nice.

"Wij vonden de lokatie perfect: stapt lijn 9 uit en staat met je..."
Pros: Wij vonden de lokatie perfect: stapt lijn 9 uit en staat met je trolleykoffertje aan de overkant van het hotel. we gingen 's-avonds naar de wereld draait door: andere overkant van de straat !!! en de volgende dag naar de hermitage (om de hoek ) bovendien is binnen 30 meter het café tante koosje waar je 's-middags al een heel gezellige sfeer aantreft.
dit hotel is eenvoudig ...maar heeft alles wat je nodig hebt en is bovendien ook schoon.
kortom:
