This hotel is budget and basic but absolutely perfect for a few days visiting Amsterdam.
We were very pleased to get off the train from Schiphol via Sloterdijk and find the hotel was a 2-3 minute walk from the station. Zaandam is also a lovely place with lots of shops, cafes and bars. We didn’t explore beyond the Main Street but I’m also told the windmill tour isn’t far away in Zaanse-Schans.
Reception staff very friendly, coffee machine in the lobby charges €1.50 for a cappuccino. There’s no breakfast facilities but plenty of cafes within walking distance. also a large supermarket across the street. Room is small but clean with a good view of surrounding area. The shower wouldn’t be out of place in a 5 star hotel, it was brilliant.
10 mins on the train to Amsterdam Centraal and the trains run from around 6am till 1am every 15 minutes.
