As soon as we arrived, we were made to feel welcome. I had accidently booked an extra night, as I had not taken our overnight ferry the previous day. The receptionist was very understanding about this. Although we did have to pay for the lost night before, they did not charge our card for a missed night.
The room was clean and well decorated. The view from the windows was of the alley and you could turn to see the Grasshopper coffee shop aswell as the path to the Red Light District.
We had our own bathroom which was very clean.
Although the hotel's breakfasts were very good value, the receptionist was selling water at 2 Euros per bottle. In the shops the same thing was about 70 cents.
Overall, our stay was excellent and we are trying to book there again for October!

Top Local Tips for Amsterdam
take the train The train ride from the airport was 20-25 min to Amsterdam cost 7.00 round trip. Make sure you get the round trip ticket and get it stamped before going back onthe train to airport. Once to Amsterdam see Victoria hotel walk towars it and cont down damrack to blue sign on main drag Continental Hotel. The children 18-22 years old loved this location.
schiphol to amsterdam walk downstairs in the airport and you're at the train station, buy your ticket before walking downstairs, 3.20 euros for a single, and within 20mins you're in amsterdam centraal. couldn't be easier
Trams in Amsterdam If youwant to get around buy a Strippenkart - if you are there for a while buy the more expensive one. Definitely don't pay each time you get on a tram, the Strippenkaart makes much better value for money. The only problem is the confusing stamping system. If you can go to the conductor. If not you stamp every second box - most trips in Amsterdam are one zone, so you stamp the second box - only the dutch! If there are two of you you can use the same strip just stamp the next box but one for the second person and so on. You also get an hour from the time which shows on the stamp to transfer to other trams and buses etc. Hopefully the chippenkart system which is coming will be easier --it is a card you top up whch will probably be better value than single journey payments as well and willbe used for all transport.
