The hotel is conveniently located in the heart of Amsterdam, right by a church that plays quite often during the day. The rooms, although lacking a heater, provide a natural alarm at 8 am with minimal notice. The hotel is really near the train station, making it easy to explore the city. However, being in the center comes with occasional noise from the church and the hustle of the city.

I woke up to an unexpected alarm at 8 am with basically no notice in a room without proper air circulation on the top floors. The hotel is perfectly located in the heart of dam ❤️, right in the city center but unfortunately by a Church that plays quite often during the day. The dining experience offered freshly brewed coffee, which was a nice touch. I found the facilities to be adequate without any standout features.

The hotel is situated in the very center of Amsterdam by a Church which plays quite often during the day, offering a convenient location. The rooms lack proper air circulation, especially on the top floors with no prior notice. The service was on point with a few hiccups. The dining experience provides different hot pot dishes, but there are areas for improvement. Overall, it's a decent stay but with some room for enhancements.

I stayed at this hotel near a church in the heart of Amsterdam. The location was central to everything, making it very convenient. The room had no proper air conditioning, and there was a surprising loud alarm at 8 am, which disturbed my sleep. The dining experience was pleasant with world-famous seasoned fries, but the service was a bit lacking.
