Satisfactory Central Location Stay

pleasant staff free coffee missing fridge faulty keycard
The staff members were pleasant. The hotel had free tea and coffee available in the foyer. I found this convenient. The bathroom was a wet room and the bed was comfortable.
The room lacked a fridge. There was no DND sign available for use. I asked for a one hour late checkout, though it was denied. The keycard stopped working before checkout time.

Central Location, Great Value!

convenient location helpful staff coffee machine
The location was convenient. I walked easily to the central station. The staff was helpful. They stored my luggage both before and after my stay. The room was well-equipped with a coffee machine.
The room lacked a proper partition between the bed and the bathroom, made the layout a bit awkward. This setup affected the privacy.
Location

The hotel is near the central station, a four-minute walk. One can catch a train, a metro, and many tourist canal boats from there. We walked everywhere because of the EXCELLENT location. Many canals are nearby.
Dining

There are several nearby restaurants for lunch, dinner, or light meals. They suit all tastes and budgets. You'll find various supermarkets nearby for light meals, water, snacks, fruits, and other items. IT WAS very handy.
Rooms
10/10
My room had a coffee machine and a hairdryer, SO GREAT! The room was clean and airy, including a window. It was on the top floor, but there was an elevator. We only had to climb stairs for the final part.

The room had a coffee machine. I was able to leave my luggage both before check-in and after check-out (this helped a lot with my travel plans).
My room was located at the front, above a bar, and some street noise was audible at times.
