László welcomed us very kindly at the reception. The room we were assigned was well equipped. There were plenty of restaurants/shops nearby.

It was not perfectly clean. The curtains hanging on the window were torn. There were knots in the bed linen. The mattress slid off the bed when moved, so it was not comfortable.

Cozy hotel room. Bicycles could be easily stored in the underground garage.

Too far from the city center. During our 5-night stay in Amsterdam, we spent £280 just on Uber rides to and from the city center. This hotel is actually on the outskirts. Upon arrival in Amsterdam, we found a hotel £300 cheaper in the city center, where most attractions were located.

Double room size, close to metro and bus stops, good value for money, friendly staff.

Double room size, close to metro and bus stops, good value for money, friendly staff.

Generally noisy room, noise from water drains in the room above (maybe we were unlucky to get the room below the drain, but the noise, especially at night, was quite annoying), poor external fixtures, noise from garbage trucks collecting trash on the side facing the pond, small bed pillows, very high bed, small bedside tables, I don't like the carpet, it seems unhygienic, breakfast was decent, limited variety of sweet and savory items.
