I had a wonderful stay at this hotel in central Amsterdam! The rooms were beautifully decorated with a small balcony offering lovely views right by the sink. The service was top-notch with excellent assistance from the receptionist. The location was prime, just a stone's throw away from the city center and in easy walking distance to many attractions. The dining experience was decent, although I wasn't a fan of the Chicken sausage, and the facilities were great overall.
