JORGE, East Elmhurst

Liked: Cleanliness
I can say that it is a hotel with a modern structure, but its rooms do not have intercoms with the concierge, they do not have a simple coffee maker to heat water for tea or coffee available, it does not have a refrigerator with drinks. We had also requested a queen bed and received two single beds joined together, which was very uncomfortable. Finally, despite the technology, we did not have access to a TV considering the difference in networks that each cell phone has. Smartphone TV with apps included would be a good option. Even if these details could be overcome that would make it a 5-star hotel, there is one detail that must be taken into account, which I consider important, and that is the location of the property, which is very beautiful, but it is not a public transportation just 15-minute away walk to area with access public transportation. Private vehicles are not effective because the cost to get to the city center, which is the most common destination, is very low cost and not very beneficial, which makes me suggest that the hotel should have a car service that helps passengers at least get to the public transportation stop both ways, the cost would be minimal considering the cost of the accommodations at this hotel.

The niu was located in a suburban area with little convenience or places to eat out. Not even any tea or coffee facilities in the room. The restaurant had very little choice of food options but the breakfast the next morning was very good. On check out, the receptionist was very unhelpful in booking us a location. She insisted on a precise address despite getting location information from the viking crew.

The hotel is away from the centre of Amsterdam, however it's only a short bus ride to the centre of the city. There is not much in the way of eateries nearby with only limited food options at the hotel itself.

I will absolutely be booking this hotel for future trips to Amsterdam. I love the area, feels very safe and clean and on a beautiful waterfront. The rooms are large, mine felt like a suite. The main reason I would book this hotel again was the staff. Every person working there was so kind and sweet to my family after a very early flight. Throughout the duration of our 2 day stay they just went above and beyond.
