Hotel Flipper Amsterdam

The staff was friendly and helpful, location was ok. Overall horrible stay, other places in town would have ended up being far less expensive.

At arrival charged 7% city tax + ¿24 tourist tax + ¿20 cash deposit - then were overcharged & had to wait 3 days for a refund Beds are uncomfortable & barely 2 feet wide Walls are thin, we couldn¿t sleep due to constant noise No storage space in room

There is nothing about this hotel that meets and average travelers expectations.

The rooms reek of cigarette smell. The entire hotel smells like people have been chain-smoking in it for decades. The bathroom is smaller than an airplane restroom. Good luck closing the door.

Good location.

Should not have been rented to 4 adults.

I booked the single room for 2 nights. The room was super clean, it had the necessary supplies, cups for tea and water, and a kettle. It had a shared bathroom and a shower room, WIFI is perfect, the staff members were great and super helpful, the location of the hotel is not far from the main station, you can walk or take the bus. The surrounding areas are packed with restaurants, supermarkets, and many things you can simply walk and discover. Overall, great stay.

Location amazing! Staff very helpful :)

We found a bedbug.At night heaters were very loud that i needed to change a room, staff was very helpful and gave us new room for free. The nose was still there but much better. Towels had some dirt. One bed matress were very bad, not possible to sleep on it. The curtain were cut and we found someone elses used socks next to window

In a back alley, with zero facilities. Very poor service and hygiene. The room is small, has no bathroom, and the building is very old. I do not recommend it to anyone.

Showers were clean and well looked after. There was plenty space downstairs, it was also generally pretty quiet. For the majority of the time, the staff were friendly and chatty.

The bed bugs, on our second night while laying in bed I noticed movement in the corner of my eye, it was bed bugs, immediately we jumped out of bed grateful we kept most our clothes in our bags off the furniture. My boyfriend immediately went to go get the receptionist who came upstairs looked at the bed to see them and upon seeing the room claimed that since he couldn't see them, there wasn't an issue and implied that we were making it up despite our photos of said bugs and that we had faked the pictures. He left and said to prove it, so we had to physically trap some into a glass to 'prove' it to the staff. Upon this, he said we could move room for the night, but there would be no promise about the next night, and we may end up back there. This was at 1 in the morning. 10am the next day we were told we could stay in the 'clean' room. On our final morning, at 9am when check out is 11am, we were awoken by one of the staff members opening the door telling us to check out. No knock until after the door was open, very handy. I do not recommend it here. There are many more reveiws stating the bed bug issue (but on other sites - not here), so I can imagine this being a recurring issue.

Wasn’t sure what to expect at first, since the room was small and the bathroom and shower were out in the hallway, but we were pleasantly surprised. The place felt really cozy, and it was very clean, honestly cleaner than many bigger hotels I’ve stayed in.The bed was comfortable, the atmosphere was calm, and even though the setup was simple, we felt really good staying there. The shared bathrooms were always spotless, so it never felt inconvenient.If you appreciate a quiet and clean place that still feels welcoming, it is a great choice!!

Bed bugs infestation

Bed bugs infestation!!! Very aggressive manager denying the obvious reality even when shown proofs. Issue reported by many (unfortunately I saw it afterwards), but because of denial of reality the issue will never be solved. If you go you will be bitten and take the risk to bring the infesation with you back home. I trashed my bag and clothes before going home to avoid it. Your stay will cost you way more than you think.

Tram stop wasn’t to far sway

maybe the fact that the beds air made on hills you’ll fall off them. plus the bed bugs all over u in the night ain’t the best.

the location was ideal for us

there was an unpleasant smell in the rooms from the old filthy carpet.

Very poor

Freezing cold dangerous electric banging and noise all night long staff are rude and are disguising towards children so there was nothing to like.

The staff was very friendly, offering all sorts of help, including dishes, microwave and all that is needed to eat. Location is also perfect if you are traveling to an event at RAI, it is just 20-min walk along a beautiful street.

Rooms could be cleaner, Prices could be lower.

we could left our luggage after checkout

Dear future guests,you can really connect with nature during your stay in flipper hotel. It offers you such possibilities as seeing a rat, sleeping with bed bugs and innovative spa- water pond in the bathroom after every even the shortest shower. It can take you back in time… We would recommend staying here if you want to appreciate what you take for granted what you have at your own house. If you decide not to take a shower for a few days while staying there, fortunately you won’t have a mirror in the room to look at yourself.

The local area is nice.

The room had bed bugs. This is an ongoing issue as there are multiple reviews saying the same thing. I asked for two single beds and was told that i could have that and was then given a room with a double bed. The room was tiny and felt like a prison cell. The bedding was dirty. The pillows were like a bag of potatoes.

The only positive thing here is the staff. Very friendly, helpful and always with a smile. They cleaned the room everyday, which is nice.The location is ok, 20 mins walk from Rai or 30 from centre.

The hotel itself. This is not a hotel but a hostel. It should cost max £30 per night and not £120. The single bedroom is tiny; and the toilet and shower are in common with the floor. The room fits a small single bed and a desk and the space for your body to move between them. The bed was super uncomfortable and so was the pillow. I had to squeeze the mattress between its frame and the desk to sleep better and not have a back ache the next day. You can hear anything. Literally. I had to buy earplugs and I was praying for my holiday to end as I just wanted to go back to my house.Being a "cheap" hotel, you also get many young and disrespectful people who do not pay any attention to what time it is in the night and how loud they are. Sorry, this was a "no" for me.

We appreciated being on the ground floor and near the W/C. We thought the staff were superb and friendly.

No complaints!
