If you don’t mind playing «the floor is lava» this place is fine. We had clean towels and bessheets. The toilet wasn’t properly cleaned when we arrived and the carpet is horribly dirty, we didn’t walk around without shoes. It’s cheap, but I wouldn’t stay there longer than 2-3 days. It smells kind of bad in the stairwell, but our room didn’t smell bad. The best thing about the hotel is it’s location. It’s super close to the metro and several museums.

Staff were friendly but the building is in dire need of refurbishment. The doors, stair carpets and foyer all quite dirty and dated. The room itself, basic. Bed was comfortable but lining, inside pillows and mattress were all stained. Carpets in the room were also stained. The bathroom seemed as though it has recently been updated so was fine. No sound insulation to the room and as my room backed onto the stairwell, incredibly noisy.

There is no lift and my room was on fifth floor. The bathroom with attached toilet was stinking all the time. The hotel was also stinking bad. The staff arranged for a change of bedsheet & towel because the one we got were dirty. I couldn't use the blanket it was really old and had a stench. They also allowed us to store luggage after checkout, so I was able to roam the city freely. I wouldn't recommend it for someone who cares about hygiene.

There were a lot of poor reviews but I thought it was good value for money. Clean enough, great location next to the Heineken brewery, plus walking distance to the city centre and a few blocks from my favourite drinking area called Leidseplein. Would've been nice to have a kettle to make tea, but i liked it.

Budget friendly hotel, can't complain for the price compared to other hotels in Amsterdam. Check in is at another hotel a couple of doors down, not a problem at all. The check in was quick and easy, with friendly staff, a deposit is taken in cash for all guests but is returned at check out in cash. The actual hotel had a vending machine in hallway which was good. The hallway had a bad smell but was clean. The room was small but clean, usual for budget hotels so no problem. Double bed with plug sockets on one side, large window onto the Main Street, walk in shower and storage for bags. About an 30 min walk to Dam Square down one main road with shops, bars etc. Overall, I would stay again as a good budget by option.

The staff at Hotel Blossoms were friendly, and they have a cute cat! Just a few minutes away from metro and tram stations and a lot of great Restaurants. I was shocked by the Aston hotel's condition. My room was unclean—hairs everywhere and stains on the bedsheets! When i asked for another room they said they did not have any rooms and they would clean it again. They didn't change the sheets there was a long dark hair on the pillow before i left and when they"cleaned" the room it was still there, they just turned the pillow to the other side again. Loud phone calls and smoking in the hallway (non-smoking hotel!) added to the disappointment. I checked out early. I should have read the warnings.

Really lovely area, short walk to museums and vondelpark, nice walk into city too. Was expecting more in hotel for the price when you pay over £100 a night, entrance to hotel was very dingy in need of a re decoration, beds and bedding had stains on them, hairdryer didn’t work, room was very small but it was warm

Staff were very friendly, efficient and accommodating. Rooms were small, very little furniture apart from a bed, just some simple stuff would have made it nicer, bathroom more modern with nice shower. Served it's need as the most budget hotel in that part of Amsterdam.

The hotel is located just a block away from a tram station and the Heineken Experience. A couple of blocks from several Museums. Several dinning options close. Room was ok, but the bathroom was very small. Front desk is at a different location, but overall a good experience.
