6/10 Good

Don't be picky

Really priceworthy. Suspicious stains on the flooes
Charlie, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Very small room, no air conditioning, no shower door so the bathroom floods. The bed was comfortable and we had a nice view. Half an hour walk to main tourist attractions. Overall 6/10
Daniel, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

A nice, simple, clean hotel room - great for a few days stay.
Emily, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

You definitely get what you pay for with this, and we were there just one night. I will start off saying staff was nice and it was a great location. But the checking in at the hotel a few days down was kinda strange. Immediately walking in the property I could tell it was not clean. The entrance is very dirty. The room size was what I expected, however the floors had white stains all over them. The sheets and towels were clean at least. The worst part though is now that I’m home I have bite marks all over my back and right arm. Looking at other reviews it seems this hotel has had issues with bed bugs. While the price was good for just a night and it was a good location, and friendly staff, I would likely not stay at this location again.

6/10 Good

There is no elevator and the rooms are not very clean… matress was very stained and the rug was very dirty… if you just need a place to sleep its ok.
Alexandra, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Bed bugs - didn't care.

I mean, I knew this was a budget stay, so I wasn't expecting much. We just needed a place to sleep and shower while we got on the more important business of exploring Amsterdam. But the rooms were tiny, hot, dirty, dark, and even though they had heat pumps/air conditioning, we had no control over the temperature, so it made them way less helpful. Those things would all be fine, given that I knew it was a budget stay. The problem was the bugs. There was bed bugs. I'm no entomologist, but I'm pretty sure those are bed bugs. I showed reception, and all he said was "Sorry, man". Didn't care very much, didn't offer anything. So, I'd say skip this one, and gamble it with another place to stay.
Jesus, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Really lovely area, short walk to museums and vondelpark, nice walk into city too. Was expecting more in hotel for the price when you pay over £100 a night, entrance to hotel was very dingy in need of a re decoration, beds and bedding had stains on them, hairdryer didn’t work, room was very small but it was warm
Debra, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel is located just a block away from a tram station and the Heineken Experience. A couple of blocks from several Museums. Several dinning options close. Room was ok, but the bathroom was very small. Front desk is at a different location, but overall a good experience.
Manuel, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Property was not as advertised, had terrible air circulation, could not consistently get hot water, had no table or flat surface to rest anything on. Sheets had stains and floor was broken in several places. Staff were friendly but property was horrible
Emilie, 4-night trip

4/10 Fair

Below average hotel

Very average hotel, with many stains in the room carpets and stairwells, mold near the patio door, scary patio, ants in the room, burn marks on some of the outlets, no elevator, no AC. Not cheap either and not a value for the money we spent.
John, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Stay away

The only good thing about this hotel is the location. Apart from that the hotel is run down, the towels full of holes, the key cards are constantly malfunctioning, the rooms are covered with dirt, it smells of mould in the bathroom and the toilet is of a strange design only interesting for weird people. The staff can be nice, but the manager who were present during our stay was a particularly obnoxious person.
Sandra, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Small box room with no air con or windows. Shower water gets everywhere. Weird toilet.
Toby, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

After reading all the awful reviews we were very stressed about what we would find on arrival. The hotel is dilapidated, the hallway is pretty gross but the actual room was ok. Its basic at best, dated and not amazingly clean. To be honest, we paid about £40 per person per night for a very central place to sleep and while i wouldnt queue up to stay there again it was cheap and budget friendly.
Louisa, 4-night trip

It’s very dirty.

8/10 Very good

Henrik Bruun, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The towels were holed, the door to the toilet was holed, and the door for the shower was missing, so the floor would be flooded after a shower.
Daniel, 6-night trip

4/10 Fair

Room at ground floor very noisy, difficult to sleep. Room not well cleaned
Marco, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

The room was very unclean, carpet was practically crawling and full of dirt. Bed sheets and towels smelt clean but we’re covered in stains, and blood stains on the wall of the room. Actual building itself looks derelict with blood stains on walls. Staff were okay & check in easy - note 50 euro deposit required and taxes per person on top of hotel charge. Would not recommend DO NOT stay here
Gabrielle, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Worst experience

Very uncomfortable bed, no soap in the bathrooms, they charged me 25 euros more for taxes even though I had already paid everything for the app. I do not recommend it
Emma Rosalia, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Cheap but worth shortfalls for central location.

We booked this hotel because of the really central location for the price, and the reviews on hotels.com weren't too bad but after booking I looked at google reviews and was horrified as they were much worse. We were so worried after that because of reports of bedbugs and dirty rooms etc but after arriving it was actually fine for the price and location, you get what you pay for. The room was dirty round the edges but the bed linen was clean and we checked the mattress for signs of bedbugs but didnt find anything. The mattress did have some stains but it was comfy enough. Our twin room had a balcony and we could see some mattresses and bed bases discarded out the back so I assume they did deal with the bedbug issue. The bathroom was very small but looked like it had been done up more recently than the rest of the room and was fine for a 3 night stay. Everywhere was walkable within 30 mins and it is right next to the Heineken experience! The lady at hotel reception who checked us in was lovely and the other hotel you have to check in is literally 30seconds away from aston city. If you are happy with a basic room and arent too fussy to get a great budget trip for a fraction of the price of other central hotels then I recommend.
Beth, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

DO NOT stay here

Our first room had stains and hair all over the bed and rubbish underneath so we asked to switch (the staff member at this time was very kind!) Second room was equally filthy with a disgusting stained ceiling and a hairdryer that nearly blew up in our hands. How ever this room was "even better" as we had air con! But had to go to another hotel to get the singular remote. The entire place is stained, filthy and the whole atmosphere felt unsafe. Especially with no reception except located in a seperate hotel down the road. Really enjoyed our multiple trips in the rain to speak with the desk. We had to pay immediately to stop elsewhere (shout out to ibis styles just down the road! Legends) We DID get our deposit (€50 surprise on the door!) back, as well as the city tax. How ever we haven't received any support or much information for a refund for the stay. When we were complaining, the staff on the desk were dead silent, no apology, they know how bad it was.

Huone compact kokoinen. Suoraan kaupungissa. Porraskäytävän ja naapurin huoneen äänet kuuluivat sisälle, mutta ei haitannut yöunia. Sisääntulo aulassa snacks automaatti. Vain rappuset joten liikunta rajoitteiselle ei sovi. Vastaanoton henkilökunta mukavaa ja avuliasta. Heineken vanha panimo vieressä.
