The room i got was small. A real squeeze. ventilation in the bathroom was completely busted, which wasn't ideal (it felt stuffy). plus, the minibar didn't cool anything. the receptionist wasn't especially friendly either, which just added to the frustration.

The hotel's location proved convenient. I found myself very close to key attractions (especially the Anne Frank House) and public transport links. The breakfast was delicious (especially the pastries!).

My room felt a bit small for the price. I also noticed the ventilation in the bathroom was not working properly. The minibar did not cool as effectively as I would have liked.

The decor is dated and very dark in the room. It feels quite oppressive.
