Hotel Casa Amsterdam
This is a green hotel that has a large resident student population. Overall it was great. Located a few blocks from Amstel station made getting around Amsterdam very easy. Restaurant and coffee bar were good and staff was very friendly and helpful.

citizenM Schiphol Airport
Staff was outstanding in being helpful. Breakfast was a disappointment since all of the “hot” food was tepid at best. The cold foods were great. Overall, I recommend this choice. I’ve included the view from our room.

Hotel ibis Schiphol Amsterdam Airport
The room was ridiculously small and to make it worse they had a 3rd bed in it. A real rip off. You could not swing a cat in there.
