Lovely would definitely stay again
This was a lovely hotel. The room was spacious and really nicely decorated.
The bed was so comfortable I never wanted to leave it, and there is Aircon. The shower needs a little upgrade but worked fine.
Quiet area and plenty of access to trams and nice little restaurants.

We had a great stay! Room was a little small but cozy. Room service every other day. Helpful and friendly staff. Great location central to the museums — about a 10/15 minute walk for food more towards the city center. Paid breakfast approx 16 euro (slightly cheaper if you book ahead for multiple days). Hotel was quiet and in a quiet neighborhood.

Really nice staff and location. The hotel is somewhere in-between quaint and shabby-chic and far from the usual hotel chain standards. But overall a nice stay.

I’ve only been to one city where I’ve used the same small hotel over and over again. I have found my second city and hotel. Max Brown was awesome. It was located in the beautiful area near the museums and is convenient to every more of transportation you need. To top it off, each and every member of the staff excelled our expectations. I look forward to our return trip.

Stay away!
I know the rooms in Amsterdam hotels are small but this one is outright fraudulent.
We booked a medium room which was advertised at 16m2 (here and on their own website) but the room was barely 13m2 even if you ignore walls. There was also black mold on the window frames and the radiator couldn’t heat the room properly. Stay away!
I complained to hotels.com and the reception and I’m yet to receive a refund. The receptionist was friendly about the situation and tried to help but there were no other rooms available. We had to find a different hotel last minute with no help from either.
