Very clean, very well kept. Lovely staff. Nice little touch to put the suitcases in our room after we left them until check in time. Room was cosy with high ceilings and a lovely balcony door. Good tv and channel selection. Fantastic location for us. 6 min walk from the bus to take you to and from the airport. (Bus 397).

Great location for visiting the popular sights. The room was quite clean but ridiculously HOT. Even turning off the heat, it was uncomfortable. The wifi was intermittent. The breakfast was very good and the staff was super helpful..

The construction around the hotel is inconvenient as well as the location of my room. The room numbers are confusing, and I had to take stairs to my room, which was not fun to do with all my luggage. Also, the front desk person would not really pay attention to the door as we had to be buzzed in there was a time that we waited for about 1520 minutes to get in

Room was a good size but bathroom had a musty smell. USB charging ports didn't work. No vending machines. Breakfast was minimal and expensive. Staff was pleasant but seemingly unable to provide solutions for issues. Very close to Leidesplein.
