Waking up in the gap between two single beds wedged together is very uncomfortable. The bathroom always felt a little dirty / gross. Waking up to the birds was nice though, if you’re into that. Other than that it’s just a basic hotel, nothing special.

We enjoyed our stay. The room was comfortable and it was nice to have a room with a small terrace. The bird sanctuary and zoo was really enjoyable. It was a nice bonus.

Restaurant was brilliant. Reception staff were very helpful on all occasions. Room large with good amenities. Only one difficulty and that was the heating was inadequate even though reception gave clear instructions on temperature control.

The free entrance to the zoo park just beside the hotel is a bonus. The breakfast 18 Euro is great and convenient. The only negative review is the bathtub and the side towel rack were not cleaned properly.

Comfortable Family Stay

Checking in was quick and smooth, and the employees at the front desk were very kind and sweet. We stayed in a family suite that was well-priced and very comfortable for all 5 of us. We had plenty of space and everything was clean and easy to use. We struggled to find a place in Amsterdam that was suitable for families and I am glad we stayed here instead, we will definitely stay here again for our next trip to Amsterdam.
