Our room was double booked so they upgraded us to the XO City West. A better hotel and closer to town which appreciated. Area was safe and quiet but very few places around to eat. We walked into the city area, about 4kms, easy walk. Staff were very nice.

Great hotel with great transport links into the city centre. Clean and comfortable and the staff was very friendly. The only thing that could have improved the stay would have been opening the hotel bar :)

Terrible experience

This is a rubbish hotel. I found hairs, dirty things on pillow and the floor. I booked two days, but decided to give up the room. They didn’t provide any refund. This is the terrible hotel. Never book this hotel.

It’s very close to two tram lines so you can get to the center of Amsterdam in aprox 30 minutes. However the walls in the room were dirty, the mattress is old and the comforter had hairs when we got there. Will try somewhere else next time.

we had a great time here, the room was great and had a nice tv with some british channels, the shower was good and everything was pretty clean. We got a ground floor room but it wasnt even that noisy so we werent fussed. The hotel is a few minutes walk from the tram stop and it takes about 30 mins to get into the centre! u can just tap ur card on the tram as well. Overall we had a great time !!

It's a terrible hotel.

I logged in on September 14th. On September 15, our drinks were stolen from the refrigerator. I told this to the reception. They haven't cleaned the room for 4 days. They do not provide paper cups and hand soap. I told this to the reception and got into a fight with them. They said they would clean the entire room in the morning. We left the room in the morning. When we came to the room in the evening, as you can see in the attached photos, no one came to the room. Nobody cleaned the room or took out the trash. They have terrible service. They have a terrible cleaning staff. Terrible hotel. I shared these photos all over social media and the next morning they finally cleaned the room. Just when I thought everything was fine and I was about to check out of the hotel the next day, this time I got into a fight with the thugs in the next room. That night they took four vagabonds to the hotel. Smoking is prohibited in the rooms, but they started smoking drugs and shouting. It's 23:30 at night. I called the reception and asked him to come. At that moment, I saw the people next to me go out into the corridor. And I went out and warned these people. I told the person at the reception to call the police if the noise continued. Then I said that I wanted to talk to the authorized person at the hotel. He said he was the only one in the hotel. In a hotel with hundreds of rooms, there was only 1 person. No security, no other staff in case of an emergency, no shift manager!

An sich ein Standard Hotel für seine Klasse, aber die Zimmer ohne die Möglichkeit dort Fenster aufzumachen und die Lautstärke von der Hauptstraße auf der Seite wo unser Zimmer war, brachten für mich eine Kombi mit sich, die mich davon abhaten würde dies noch mal zu buchen.

This Hotel was booked, as it had parking, and close to our area of work. We struggled to find suitable food or drink in the area, especially in the evenings, as the amenities seem to service a non Dutch population. All in all a good hotel and suitable for our needs.
