Loved our stay here. If you like something quirky and you’re on a budget, this is perfect!
Shared toilets were clean and never crowded. The fact that they’re unisex was a massive plus for us as it meant always being together still. The hotel is only 15 minutes on bikes which we hired on day one but as we arrived late at night, it was a faff to get to due to trams stopping at 11ish. Would definitely stay again but arrive in time to hire bikes from the centre or catch the tram. Rooms are basic but all you need. The fan was a godsend as no windows in the rooms. Not a problem for us as we were out first thing and back late. If you prefer some time in the room, this probably wouldn’t be sufficient. Hotel bar was great too! Beautiful area and a beautiful bike ride to the centre. We did catch the tram once which took about 25 minutes and was €3 pp approx.

This was definitely an interesting place to stay! Each room had a theme, and the decor was well designed. Only minus was that the door was difficult to lock (you had to push hard and fiddle with the key to get it out after closing the lock). The breakfast was excellent (not a buffet but à la carte) and the hotel offered a bike rental service, witch helped to explore the city!

Very quirky place to stay, we thought the room being behind the bookcase was really cool! I wasn’t as a fan of the photos on the ceiling though
Overall I can’t complain about the place, the staff were nice and the shared bathrooms were perfectly clean. We really enjoyed the breakfast here as well. The only things I wasn’t as keen on (small room etc.) I already knew before going and was advertised as such, so that’s my own problem really! Would recommend to anyone looking for a budget hotel in Amsterdam who doesn’t want to stay in dorms/a proper hostel

This hotel is completely unprofessional. I was supposed to stay here, however at the time of booking, it was not made obvious that this hotel is not accessible. I had to find another place to stay last minute, as my mother who was recovering from a broken neck, can not climb stairs-the only room available. I have made multiple requests to be compensated, only to have the hotel not respond to Expedias emails, and be told nothing can be done. Avoid at all costs- for their lack of professionalism, and discriminatory practices- please note, that now their page mentions that there is no elevators- so they are aware of this complaint- just don't respond.

My partner and I had expected a quirky boutique hotel, but were unhappy with the "Crisis Free Zone" room, particularly the poor ventilation and poor air quality, which made the room we were meant to be staying in very stuffy. The ventilation system was noisy, poorly-installed and poorly-mounted in the eaves of the room so that it did not actually ventilate the space, and the only way to properly air out the room would have been either to keep a fan running the whole time, or to keep the door open, exposed to the entrance of the hotel. Even with the door closed we could hear everything outside of the room, and I imagine this would have continued through the night as the hotel includes a lively bar next to the communal bathroom facilities.
Additionally the communal bathrooms were not well-stocked, as there was no soap by the sinks and no toilet roll in the WC cubicle. We didn't stay long enough to check out the showers.
I would be very surprised if the designer of the "Crisis Free Zone" had actually stayed in their creation, as it did not feel fit for purpose.
