Would recommend overall, good for short stay
The pros were the location, close to the airport and Amsterdam Central, great local transport links and supermarkets nearby, and it was a surprisingly quiet area considering its proximity to university dorms. My room was clean when I checked in, the communal areas like the lifts, reception and hallways were all very clean too. I only spoke to one member of reception staff but he was friendly and helpful. Easy self check-in process, took no time at all and my room was easy to find.
Two negatives, one personal and one general. I didn’t think the loss of a window in my room would be a big deal as it was a short stay and I spent most of my time outdoors anyway, but I was sometimes disoriented in the day as it was always dark without the lights on. It’s not a knock on the hotel as the pictures clearly show there’s no window and I knew that was the case before I booked. Just advising that if you’re used to natural daylight then this is not the room for you.
General negative is housekeeping. It felt like they were trying to make as much noise as possible when cleaning. No consideration for the guests that might still be sleeping/busy/require quiet. Dragging metal chairs across the tiled floor, hitting every wall when hoovering, shouting to each other over the hoover. Every morning I was woken up by them.
The walls are a little thin and doors are also far too heavy, every one of them slams behind you. All hotels should have soft close doors, people go there to sleep after all!
