Mytch

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Amenities
Overall, things such as cleanliness, staff and quality was fine, no issues there. Even then, it was very minimal, even for the Dutch. Where my review severely drops stars is logistics and terms. There were quite a few make-or-break terms/conditions that were not disclosed to me until after a room was allotted and payment accepted. Upon asking for clarification, the information was listed nowhere on third party listings, direct, or in person. Deeply disappointed by this, certainly will not return nor recommend. There are places to stay within the same price range and locations that are 2x-3x better. Out of the dozens of stays I’ve had in Amsterdam alone, this was the worst value, and most deceptive.

This property is very convenient to the train station but there is no elevator going up at all. So it’s not recommended to older travellers with heavy luggages. This hotel is only good for light travelers with strong knees to go up the steep stairs. The receptionist when we checked in named Anooska has an attitude not suitable for customer oriented job like what she’s doing. She can tell us in a nice way but she told us in a sarcastic and rude way but on our checked out the guy in the reception was very helpful to carry our luggages down without being asked.
