We stayed here for only 2 nights and if we were to stay longer we would have cancelled. The air conditioner did not work and we were on the top floor. It was way too hot to sleep. They provided a fan which did not do much. We had to keep the window open to make it bearable but the area is so loud at night we did not sleep a wink the entire time. The afternoon bar with wine and snacks was nice. However I would not stay here again if the A/C is not working. They should not be booking the rooms with no A/C. Very disappointing.

We had a wonderful view of the canal from our window. The breakfast in the morning was very handy and the eggs cooked to order were good. There was a rare heat wave (high of 87 F) and the air conditioning was fantastic. The room was cramped for 2 people ( sit on bed to use laptop) and the bed a bit lumpy and hard. Overall very pleasant.

The manager or rather hotel customer service to customers is very very terrible. My experience with you all is bad been staying in hotels round the world as a traveller and I also give honest review. The review I’m giving now is based on the service I had with this hotel considering the fact of what happened to me on my visa as a foreigner. You people didn’t even assist me by making things easy for me and still took my 2 night that I was asking for my sister to use and eat or change of booking with the two night left. Is unfair. Thanks Ada

A great hotel, in a great position. Located in the south of the city, near a metro station (for links to the rail network and the airport) and near the market. The more touristy/central area is around a 15-20 minute walk. We plan to visit the city again and will definitely look to stay at this hotel again.

The room was clean, staff friendly and very helpful. Room was hot as fan did not have heavy air flow. We unplugged the fridge it helped remove heat source. Used the dehumidifier it put out hot air but more cool then hot and opened window but loud outside. We would stay here again but ask to stay on first floor. Spiral staircase wears tough with luggage.

The staff is the glue of this property. They made our stay extremely pleasant and enjoyable, thank you! Honest review is that hotel needs renovation. The property is very run down. Not the cleanest and the cherry on top is the paper thin walls. Unless you like listening to other guests walking around, talk and others, sure. Unfortunately this hotel is not for me.

Name says it all

Charming well-priced property located in two townhouses that back directly on a canal, in an exceptionally lovely neighborhood close to the metro and Rjiksmuseum. Rooms on the back facing the canal feel as though they could be in the country (others feel much more urban). Look for the wonderful two room suites. Happy Hour is a great touch and is free. However continental breakfast, which isn’t, is rather skimpy. This feels more like a guest house than a fancy hotel. There are no elevators. And some bathrooms have frosted glass walls which might not work for everybody.

Interesting property and we did enjoy our stay for the most part. The thing I didnt like is that we were given a room in the basement next to the breakfast area. It faced the street and was very noisy at night. I also didn't love the whole glassed in shower and toilet area, no privacy st all in there.
