Hotel Titus

The hotel is close to public transportation. The hotel is a smoking-free property also the fine is 250 EUR but people smoke marijuana all the time in the rooms, the hotel is small, so you can breath weed inside you room as well, so this is not good option if you are traveling with kids, despite the fact the hotel said children are welcome. The second day the staff let in the room just the body towels, no hand towels and no bath towels, we were in the 4 floor, no elevator, the hotel doesn’t have a direct communication between rooms and reception, also it was 11pm so we decided to do nothing, the third day was the same, also they didn’t change the linen when is supposed to be changed. In the checkout day the receptionist was just asking for the key card all the time, he didn’t ask how was our stay, we were waiting for him because was busy, and we wanted you use the luggage storage that in reality is leave the bags wherever you find a place, he doesn’t even know who belongs to who, there is not any tag that you receive for leave your bag, so any person can take any bag.

There were 5 of us staying a this hotel, 3 of which stayed in room number 5 and 2 in number 6. The room at number 6 was faultless. Absolutely immaculate. The room was very warm with clean sheets every day and very comfy beds. Room 5 however was not so good. The windows was drafty and there was an awful smell coming from the shower that smelt like boiled eggs every time it was used. However the room was clean with a very good view. We enjoyed our stay at the hotel. Just remember guys not to forget about that city tax!

This was in a absolutely amazing location, a 2 minute walk from a great part of downtown Amsterdam. The wifi was also very reliable and they had tons of cable channels in Dutch and English. My only complaints is that check in was supposed to be at 2pm. I got there at 2:15 and they were still cleaning my room. When I got into the room after waiting for a bit the floors were soaking wet so I had to dry the floors off with my towels. Also this place like many places in Amsterdam is all steep staircases so if you have a huge luggage this will be a very interesting experience for you.

The rooms were incredibly small, but that's how Amsterdam is. The top-floor room was super hot (I was sweating in a T-Shirt) while the basement room was cold... Staff was very helpful though, helped us move from way up the stairs the first day to a more accessible room. The internet connection was good and there's coffee at reception. The location is pretty good (15 minute tram ride from train station, and the area is central for all intents and purposes). The view from upstairs was actually really good. The neighbors the first day were horrible though and the room provided zero noise isolation from rowdy (possibly high) people. Frustrating, but not exactly the hotel's fault.

Comfortable beds, polite and helpful staff, clean (apart from the used bucket and mop that were left in the hallway for a couple of days. Very snug. Excellent location. Could do with updating the website to make it clear that it is room only, but that there is use of a kettle, microwave and a few bits n bobs in the reception area. Table and folding chairs in the room were very useful. Only real downside was that water pressure was so weak in the shower, despite being in the basement, that I could not wash my hair.
