The bar area and way to get up to the rooms is not ideal and they should come up with a better system but the rooms and en suite bathrooms are nice.Very convienent to get to Dam square and literally around the corner from the red light district.Parking is an issue and dont be fooled by the £28 for parking, the parking arcade is very very far from the hotel and we found parking closer for slightly higher price but less hastle

Pros: For three lads going for a few days who dont want more than a bed to get your head down in for not much money, you cant go wrong here. i read the reviews about bed bugs but that was not our experience. cant talk for the other rooms but ours was alright. reasonable size beds that wern't cramped together with enough space to swing a large cat. the walk-in shower was the highlight, whilst not exactly brand new (70's), was very powerfull and probably one of the best showers i've had in any hotel. very good experience considering i was expecting much worse from reading some of the reviews of this place. ynwa
