The hotel room was like entering a sauna amidst the lively streets of Amsterdam, providing a unique but challenging experience. The service, on the other hand, showed a mix of attitudes, from awesome to grumpy. The location is perfect for nightlife enthusiasts but comes with its share of noise issues. Dining was a hit or miss, from unexpected free offerings to simple options. Overall, a place to consider if you value location over room comfort.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was convenient, with easy access to transportation and nightlife, but the noise from the nightclub below made it hard to sleep. The service was a mix of welcoming and unresponsive, with no follow-up after sending an email to the manager. The dining options were limited to basic sandwiches, and the rooms were a disaster, with dirty toilets and unmade beds. Despite some positives, the overall experience was not as expected.

Staying at this hotel was a bit crowded with a group of 12 in room 4 and the rooms aren't worth it, especially with just a jar of chocolate spread provided. The location though is great, very convenient near bars, shops, and coffee shops, and close to the nightlife. Service was a letdown with staff rushing through guests and being unaccommodating, even giving out the wrong key and not admitting the mistake. The dining experience lacked variety and quality, offering only basic bread and jam without cooking facilities. Despite these downsides, the hotel's central location and proximity to the city center are convenient.

The hotel is in a very central location, great for young people and close to many attractions in the city. The rooms lack soundproofing, compromising privacy, and are considered a disgrace by some. The dining offers primarily basic options with cheap bread and jam but is conveniently located in the bustling Leidsepleine square.

Staying at this hostel was quite an experience. The room felt like being in the Amazonian jungle, but unfortunately, it was dirty and poorly ventilated, making it uncomfortable. However, the hostel is a budget-friendly option for a large group.
