- Decor, design, vibe, furniture were all great and cohesively considered.
- I was thoroughly impressed with Café Modern! At first, I thought it was in the middle of nowhere, but I quickly learned that the free ferry is just a 10-minute walk away, and the ferry ride itself only takes about 10 minutes—super convenient.The room was absolutely massive, and I adored the retro-style interior design. The highlight for me was the bathtub perched in an open ensuite right at the center of the bathroom, it felt like pure luxury!The staff were incredibly helpful and kind throughout my stay. I also had the privilege of enjoying a five-course meal in their restaurant, and wow, what an unforgettable experience! Every dish was absolutely delicious. ?I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a unique and memorable stay!
- very close to the train central station, cool place, very walkable and easy to get breakfast froma couple of places across the street
Cons -
- Lack of an air conditioning unit for a room of this price is a bit of an issue given the current temperatures of European summers.
- i'm gonna be picky and say that the steps in the stair are really tiny, wich is really not bad at all
- The fridge was not working properly

The view, the bed, coffe and tea in the room.
The fridge was not working properly
The bed was super good, staff is very friendly and hotel has an art touch - totally in Amsterdam style. Also price was very affortable. Would recomment 10/10.
I like absolutely everything. Big room and bathroom, ,clean, vintage style apartment. Easy to get there, just 5 min by ferry from Central station and 10 min walk. I recommend.
Budget design hotel with hostel vibes in great location.
With the term boutique hotel, I was expecting a different level of service and amenities. The room was decorated well, but in terms of amenities, it was spartan. Light and plugs only one one side of the bed, very cold (check if heaters are on in both the room and the bathroom and tuck the barely window covering curtains behind the heaters to help get the room warmish), only one chair when there was room for more, a shower with a shower head that you either had to hold (if you don't want to get your hair wet) or can barely stand under because it's not height adjustable and the hallway smelled like sewage for most of our stay (this was resolved when other guests arrived). Wifi didn't work because we didn't see the hotel wifi mentioned until the end of our stay (it's on the kitchen door, the wifi in the information is for the cafe which doesn't have the reach). Also the fridge in the bedroom was unusable because it was so loud, use the one in the shared kitchen instead. I'd say this is more of a hostel with private rooms than a boutique hotel.
Great Location, Lovely Decor and Spacious rooms with high ceilings. Bathroom clean, shower nice and large. Comfy bed. Overall loved it and would return!
The particular room we were staying the heating turned off between 10pm and some time in the early morning about 6am? So it was somewhat cold, but not awful. We asked the property manager for an electric heater which was provided, he also offered us a second duvet. Bit of a shame, but resolved in a friendly and helpful manner.
The location was perfect, just a short walk and free ferry from Centraal station and everything but quiet at night. A staff member from the restaurant downstairs helped us access the room and was lovely. The room had everything we needed although bigger cups/mugs and a regular cafetière would have been most welcome.
There was an unfortunate smell of drains. Not sure if it affects the whole property or just the room we stayed in but it did not shift.
Nice location in a quiet suburb of amsterdam. Friendly staff on arrival.
Style, kindness, location
A bit of walking -dancing noise from neighbors above during the day.
This place is incredible. A beautiful and MASSIVE apartment in the trendy Amsterdam Nord. I knew we found the right place when the chef in the (pretty posh) restaurant downstairs was singing along to Ty Segall! The apartment was perfect, some brilliant artifacts decorating the room, very spacious, beautiful and huge bathroom. Honestly, I wish I could live in this apartment, The staff we all very friendly, and very cool. A free ferry runs all day and most of the night, it is quick and has great views and only added to the experience. The ferry lands at the Amsterdam Central train station so perfect for the early morning train to the airport. And unlike most things in 'The Dam', it was worth every penny.
Nothing, it was perfect. We normally like trying different places but I dont think we could better this place in Amsterdam and will be coming back.
I loved the space and style of the room for an unbeatable price.I'll definitely be back
I could really feel the center frame of the bed in the middle, so I had to sleep on one side
Almost everything. The room is spacious, comfortable and very clean. With nice furniture. It was a very nice present the bottle of water.
The stairs.
We booked two rooms between me, my wife and kids. Located on tbe north side, a quick ferry ride over the river from the train station and then a 10-12 minute walk. The area is very quiet at night. Short walk the the A'Dam Tower.The decor was interesting. Facilities were good and beds were comfortable. Heating works well.
Some of the decor was not functional or broken. Lighting was average, but plenty of windows helped.Not a negative, but information for potential guests, the rooms are up two flights of stairs.
Everything’s perfect! Location, clean room and kitchen facilities!
They should announce that they don’t have any lift. The rooms are in third floor. I was surprised when I saw they have high staircase and I had big and heavy luggages, no lift ?
Camera was very nice and clean. For sure the picture inside and the design in general Is modern.
Price Is too high for me.
Great location with very friendly staff
TV was odd
Staff was really friendly and helpful. Location is great too, just a few minutes of walk to the ferry, then in a couple of minutes you're in the city center. Plus you have a café just on the other side of the street, where you can have breakfast. I also liked the unusual, artsy design of the rooms.
The walls are very thin, so I could hear everything from the outside and the other rooms. I recommend taking a pair of earplugs for sleeping. The steps are also steep and there's no elevator, which could be a problem with someone with mobility issues.
Three bedroom hotel located in a refurbished bank. Fun decoration. Nothing fancy but has everything you need for a couple-night-stay. Great location. Easy walking distance to the ferry. Away from the hustle bustle of the center of Amsterdam. Great neighborhood vibe. I would stay here again without any hesitation.
It didn't bother me but there are two flights of steep stairs to the 2nd floor where the bedrooms are. If you have a lot of heavy luggage or mobility constraints this will be an issue.
