After fleeing the Quentin England, I walked a few doors down and got a lovely, larger room for the same price, on the first flight up, with a larger bathroom AND a window with a lovely view. It was painted retro-blue with mismatched floral patterns and posters of gerber daisies on the wall so I felt right at home! The staff was friendly, the breakfast was abundant and it's in a quiet and safe neighborhood. I recommend this hotel for those traveling on a buget or alone.
Quaint and cosy. Clean and fairly comfortable. the bed could have more pillows and blanketing as I like but that's life in a budget hotel, right?
Quaint little hotel just minutes away from Leidsplein. We paid about 80e for a double w/ private bath. Typical Amsterdam style with steep steps and a friendly staff.
Just around the corner from Vondelpark and 10 minutes to the museums. We liked how close it was to Liedsplein without the hustle and bustle of actually being in the center. Near great food, entertainment and the park.
If you are a light sleeper bring ear plugs. The walls are a bit thin and flushes a bit noisy.
Eve's apartment service came to me via Hostelworld initially when me and my other half went to Amsterdam last year.
The apartment we stayed in, on Spuistraat was self contained and secure, we had a security access fob, and a key to the apartment, so there were no worries about being broken into and having to explain away the lack of a passport at Schiphol.
From checking in, the staff were really friendly, and even left us a bottle of wine in the apartment as well as answering any questions we had about the area.
Bathroom is really funky, and there's all you need there to have some chilltime away from the hustle and bustle.
The apartment itself is like one of the apartments the prostitues have, indeed there were working girls as neighbours - although I must stress that neither the area or what goes on there is seedy. The street is safe, cosmopolitan and well lit. Two girls sharing would be just as cool here as two lads or a mixed couple.
The window looks out onto the street so there is a cool element that you're in the apartment and everything's going on just outside.
