Rooms are exactly as shown in the pictures and cosy. A bit off the tourist trail but convenient. Staff is very helpful and always available to answer all sorts of "tourist questions". Breakfast are all worth it. I'd go back anytime!

I stayed here after researching some decent budget hotels in Amsterdam. The rooms were very different and quite liked the musical concept and layout! The staff were super friendly, and gave me valuable information on places of interests and visits. The bar is a cool place, where I got to meet some locals and travelers. Altogether a very warm &...

This hotel was exactly what we wanted, clean, comfy beds, fridge, ipod docking station, LCD TV, and a huge theatre... More

Really nice hotel manged by friendly people. We had a 5 beds room: it was OK and funny decorated on "rock-style" and with a big mural painting sponsored by Jagermaister. Great position, you can avoid public transportatio to go anywhere. Just one problem: you should be well trained to climb the steep stairs to go upstair.

The double room was a decent size, and the bed was... More

The hotel is perfectly located in walking distance of everything you would want to do in the city. The rooms are average. Nothing Special. The walls are paper thin. I would however recommend getting a room with a private bathroom. The hotel staff were very friendly,courteous & very helpful.
