We were sent here at 7.pm from the Symphony Hotel as they had overbooked. Not a central location, in a council housing estate. At least a 30 minute walk from town or a tram/bus ride. Expected to pay upfront so that we couldn't move to another hotel the next day. Rooms basic but clean.
Good Place to Stay

Top Local Tips for Amsterdam
Avoid The Hotel Flipper This Hotel is like living in a waste tip, its dirty, dangerous, noisy and very badly ran, do not stay here if possible, sleeping on a bench in the park would be more pleasure !
Anne Frank museum Buy your ticket online - you dont have to queue!
museums go to the science museum,

The hotel is basic, but clean, comfortable beds and bedding, TV, private bathroom with shower and a friendly staff.
The location is not in the city center but one short tram ride (on tram #4) takes you to the tourist attractions in six minutes- I timed it. The trams are very easy to use and there is a tram stop close to Hotel Flipper. You can purchase tram tickets at a tobacco shop, or buy them from the conductor on the tram.
Overall, I would reccomend this hotel to anyone who is thinking of a hostel but knows that having some privacy is a lovely thing.
