- The Hotel is located at the center of the city, about midway between the Central Station and the Dam square, and very close to many landmarks and tourist attractions as well as public transport links.
- The Hotel's immediate neighborhood is full of restaurants. While many of them are blatant tourist traps (as befitting a city center as overtourismed as Amsterdam's), due to the sheer amount of restaurants, there are enough places that can satisfy the palates of a more discerning diner. My particular recommendations are Dal Pagliaccio (Italian), Kamasutra (Indian), and Little Saigon (Vietnamese).
- The Hotel has excellent services; the reception was very knowledgeable and very helpful, there's a rack of coupons offering various discounts in prominent restaurants and tourist attractions, and the Taxi service to Schiphol was a life-saver given the sheer amount of luggage I was travelling with (which made for a torturous walk from the Central Station to the hotel; thankfully I only needed to do it at check-in and check-out!).
- Due to the constraints of the building(s) it's in, the Hotel's interior is labyrinthine and its floors are spread across multiple levels - for example, to get to my room, I had to take an elevator to floor 2, and take a flight of stairs to a higher portion of the same floor that's almost as high as the floor above the previous portion.
- The room was very small - by far the smallest I have ever stayed in. While this did make for a cozy environment (and also encouraged me to come out and about and explore the city), it was also inconvenient as I was travelling with a lot of luggage and couldn't even unpack it all properly.
- The Hotel's Wi-Fi started out in good working order, but deteriorated to the point of unusability by the end of the trip.
- The room had only one electric plug, which makes things inconvenient for travelers who have multiple electronic devices (such as me; I travel with a mobile phone, tablet, laptop, and smartwatch) or who want to carge their device whole using the room's provided coffeemaker at the same time.
- The hotel room doesn't have a fridge. This means I could not refrigerate the bottle of water I bought (a necessity in 30-degree weather!).
- The Check-in is automated, which made for some adjustment difficulties on my part.
