What can i say.....FANTASTIC! the room was an average size (standard rm) but plenty big enuff for two. The service and helpfullness of staff was impeccable. The room was kept spotless by the maid who was very pleasant and sorted out our sugar shrtage problem with a smile. The location is fantastic, smack bang in the middle and an ideal location to explore A'dam from. By cutting thru the alley across the street from the main entrance you get to the tram stop......No 2 & i think 5 on these two trams you could go down to the liedesplein or carry on to the museum district or go upto the back of the dam palace and central statio in the opposite direction. I wo8uld recomend getting a travel pass (24, 48, 72hour) 6.5, 10, 13 eu great value,....as soon as u arrive fromn the info office by central station. it can get a bit heavy on the legs and feet.

As mentioned in an earlier review if you leave the hotel by the canalside exit and swing a right theres a great place for breakfast and reasonably priced.

One thing that i thought was great was that they never charged for the security boxes...just request it at reception.....and yr valuables are kept in deposit boxes behind reception......all in all a great place to stay not like some of the pits i have stayed in here
