Location was excellent, could walk to virtually all the sights, and also close to Vondelpark. Buffet breakfast also very appealing, albeit a bit of a lottery as to whether a table was available when we went. Reception and breakfast staff were charming and helpful. Our room was nice enough for us, though some might have found it small.
