The hotel is in a good area close to the Vonderpark. The rooms, though in need of a makeover, have the essentials for a decent breakfast to start your day. However, some issues like improper lighting and lack of basic amenities were noticeable in the smallest room size, and the phone didn't work properly. The location and breakfast were highlights of my stay, but noise could be a concern.

My stay was quite enjoyable overall. The hotel offers an excellent location near the museum district and is just a short walk from key attractions like the Rujs and van Gogh Museums. The service was top-notch, although some staff members could have been friendlier. The rooms were cozy but a bit small and dark. The dining experience was satisfactory, with some basic options provided. The rude desk staff was a downside to an otherwise great location.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The room was spacious and conveniently located away from the red light district but still easily accessible. However, I did notice some cleanliness issues with white socks getting dirty quickly. The service provided during my visit was a mixed experience, with mild apologies for complaints but lacking proactive solutions. The location, though, was fantastic, with proximity to main attractions and easy access to transportation. The dining options were decent, but there were some extra costs involved. The facilities at the hotel generally met my expectations.

The room we booked was very spacious and perfectly situated away from the red light district, yet close enough to reach by tram. I noticed that my white socks quickly got dirty while walking on the floor.

My stay at the hotel was lovely overall. The rooms provided ample space to store luggage, which was convenient. However, they were a bit run down. The service was helpful, with attentive receptionists, though there were apologies for specific staff behavior. The location was great, close to major attractions and public transport. The dining options were limited, especially in the mornings, with early closing times and poor food quality.
