A good stay at this hotel. The room itself (the bookshelf) was nice, spacious and comfortable. The shared bathroom was okay, it was mostly clean but clearly depends on who used it last. The staff were very friendly however most times there was no one on reception and when clicking the button for attention no one arrived. It made the experience a little poorer.

Hotel Not Hotel was a super cool experience - we stayed in one of the bookshelf rooms. Takes a bit to get used to the limited space - but very doable! The vibe of the whole place is incredible - very chill, but LOTS to look at. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and provided some great food recommendations for us to check out (Foodhallen - where we also received recommendations from folks working there!). It was quite hot - however - we knew that going in, and doorstops are available so you can prop your shelf/door open and hang out in some of the comfy chairs in the shared area while the fan does the work and cools off the room

It’s a wonderful place to stay, as the name says hotel, not hotel. That’s what makes it very unique. I have stayed in a similar place before few times around the world. But what make this place unique is the member who works there? Specially, this new manager, Tamara, she’s absolutely very, very kind person. The moment I have arrived, she had my room key ready for me. The check-in process was only a few minutes and very nicely. She explained to me about the entire facility. When I walk into my room, I see this beautiful welcoming handwriting by them sitting on the bed. It made me very happy. So I highly recommend this place.!!!

Watch the tramcar please

The Hotel not hotel is a very unique experience for stays in a great neighborhood in Amsterdam. The hosts were all very nice and helpful. They even offer an option to check in early for a small fee which was great because I was very jetlagged after I landed. I stayed in the Tramcar and the room was so charming. It stayed pretty cool too. Just be mindful of the curtains as it's all windows. It is more like a hostel as the tramcar does not have a bathroom but it's situated right next to the main shared bathroom that is well kept. Would definitely stay here again for a short visit!

Our stay was terrible. We stayed from June 7 to June 14. We booked the blue house downstairs for four people 1 double bed bed and 2 twin beds, when we open the door of our room, this is not what we expected, NO TV, NO air conditioning, they have 2 fan on the walls that it was more than a heather than a fan because the air was hot not cold and we told the person at the front desk, also NO table, NO microwave, 1 window with a curtain and the curtain had problem to close it, never again I will book at that hotel. We told the person at the front desk that this is not what we expected when we booked it online, really disappointed.
