Guests frequently mention the hotel's convenient location, a short walk from the train station, providing easy access to Amsterdam Centraal and Schiphol Airport. The family rooms are appreciated for being spacious and well-equipped, often including a kitchenette with a microwave; some guests have noted the absence of plates or cutlery in the room upon arrival.

The location suited me. It was a short walk to the train station. the shower was great, and the room was very clean. overall, the location near transportation made travel easy, and the cleanliness of the room was appreciated.
the refrigerator in the kitchenette did not cool well. it was described as a chiller box instead of a fridge, only capable of maintaining the temperature of already cool items.

the staff was cute and helpful. the room had a modern style and felt super clean ,especially the bathroom. i found it so convenient being close to the train station ,making trips to central amsterdam and the airport quick!
i did notice the pillows were quite firm ,almost brick-like ,and i found it hard to get comfortable. it was a minor thing ,but better pillows would enhance sleep quality.
