Hotel Dwars is perfectly located, really convenient to the tram in to town and to Albert Cuyptmarkt and Heineken. We stayed in the small, front room and it was just as described: small and on street level. There was some street noise but nothing more than a typical night in any major city and ear plugs were provided. Staff left notes each day with suggestions and were really helpful! If on a budget and only in the room for sleeping, it’s fine and was a good base for us. I’d definitely stay again!
