I found the staff very nice, polite and accommodating. customer service seemed superb. our room was clean and tidy. Housekeeping did a good job.
The room was nice at first sight, but there was no air conditioner. i couldn't open the whole window, so fresh air was limited. i wanted a room with a balcony, but no room has one.

Excellent Hotel Experience

early arrivalfantastic locationbad lighting
They stored my bags when I arrived early and allowed me to relax in the bar. They expedited my check-in process. The location was fantastic, near the tram, cafes, and restaurants.
The bathroom lighting was almost nonexistent. I spoke to the staff, and they said others had complained. The issue was not fixed , and it impacted my comfort.

Quiet Stay Near the Zoo

green districtcomfortable mattresscoffee machinedaily supplies
The hotel is located in a green district, which I found very peaceful. I heard flamingo sounds from the nearby zoo. My mattress was comfortable. The room had a coffee machine with supplies that were replenished daily.
The room was quite small. It had just enough space for my luggage, difficult.
Location

The hotel's placement near Artis Zoo provided UNIQUE animal sounds. There are trams that go to the city center and other areas. You can walk to the center in about 18 minutes from the hotel.
Dining

The breakfast included options like oat milk and Dutch apple pie. I found it very practical. There was a choice of cereals, yogurts, and cheeses to choose. They also offered scrambled eggs and salads daily.
