This Hotel was located in a side street near Wetering Circuit. My room was small, and located in the middle, so I didn't have a window, but I did have a large skylight, so I knew when it was night and day. It had a double bed, desk, Bathroom, Toilet & Toiletries supplied. It was cleaned daily. There was a Safe, but you had to hire it at 1.5euros a day. Internet WAS NOT FREE also. Breakfast was included in the price, a Buffet, not a lot of choice, but ample. Security was good. You had a swipe card to get into your room and you also used this to get into the Hotel, I certainly felt very safe & secure here. One big plus I had which I found when searching for a cheaper Hotel most didn't have, was A LIFT, thankgoodness I didn't have to climb steep stairs every day. The owners and Reception staff all were nice, friendly and helpful. You could buy the "Strippenkart" for the Tram from them. The Tram stop was a very short walk away. The Hotel was located near Heineken Brewery and Rijksmuseum, a very convient location.
I enjoyed my stay here, and would stay here again.
Liked the security and location. Theme: HotelPrice: US$40-80 » Currency ConverterComparison: less expensive than averagePhone: +31 (0)20 626 2396 / 624 1768Directions: Near Wetering Circuit and the Heineken BreweryWebsite: http://www.asteriskhotel.nl Other Contact: www.Hotels.nl

Amsterdam is a little bigger than I originally assumed, and this hotel is a fair walking distance from the downtown area near the central train station. However, it is very close the Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh museum.
If you can figure out the tram, it should be easy and fast to get around from here.

 This what $50 a night
gets you - small, but
clean by danmcf
I stayed in a basic single (with shared shower/toilet) across the street from the main hotel. It looked to be recently renovated.
Although small (something you'll get used to if staying at budget hotels in Europe), it had all that I needed: bed, closet, phone, cable TV, chair and small writing surface, and a sink.
Den Texstraat is a great location in Amsterdam. Not because it's in the center of all the action, but because it's close enough for you to be in the center of all the action very quickly - yet you can still get a nice quiet nights sleep.
It's within a block of several tram lines and easy walking distance to the Leidseplein and Museumplein.
