This hotel is in a nice neighbourhood, with cafes and restaurants nearby, and also a Lidl a few minutes away. The nearest tram stop is a 10 minute walk and you can walk to the museum Quarter in 15 minutes or so. For the railway station you need to take a tram or cab, or walk around 40 minutes. The streets around the hotel were quiet and it felt safe. Inside the hotel, it is a basic 3* with worn decor and it seemed expensive, but perhaps that is just Amsterdam prices. We had quite a chilly reception from the reception staff on most occasions. They would answer questions and help when asked. Having a good coffee machine in the room was a lovely bonus, and additional pods were available to buy. One of the main downsides is the access to upper floors. We don't mind taking stairs, but the staircase is extremely steep, narrow, and spiralled, and it was quite hazardous. The lift is for only two people, or one with a suitcase. It made it very difficult to pop back to an upper floor room for something. For breakfast or dinner nearby, I recommend Bosco.
