Everything was nice. Good staff, the room was big enough, great shower. We had breakfast included and it was good. Bacon, eggs, pancakes, cold cuts and cheese, yogurt, etc. Great location with easy walk or tram to central station. Close to Anne Frank house and central square. Far enough from red light district to avoid that mass of humanity.

The room is very dark and the lighting is very poor. I was often putting on my phone flashlight to plug things in or look for things in my suitcase. I also didn't like the layout of the room. it made it very difficult to share a room with someone.The breakfast was delicious.The area is good walking distance from many important sites but the actual block is really that nice.

Lovely hotel in a great location. Although booking a deluxe room, it was quite compact. The walls were painted black, which made it very dark and difficult to get ready. Buffet style breakfast and an added bonus of free beer and wine in the evening, nice little touch! Would recommend but ask for a bright coloured room.
