It is the worst hotel which I ever met. I will never stop any more in this hotel. Very small and very cold room; very big cracks in windows; a shower on a floor, water in a shower is cold or very hot (normal was never); a rusty watering can sticks out in the wall, water splashes in different directions,...

This hotel is in a great location and the hotel staff are friendly and helpful. They are the only good points! The room smelt of cigarette smoke on arrival. The bedding was filthy. If I hadn't already paid for the room I would have left immediately. I chose to avoid using the shared bathroom. I had no intention of having... More

We stayed here for two nights and paid EUR150 for twin rooms (EUR75/night). I have a mixed feeling on this hotel. We are located on top floor, steep staircase. We request for lower floor but receptionist said it's fully booked. I think she's telling the truth cause after a few minutes, two female asking for a hotel room but receptionist... More

We stayed at the hotel for one night only, and that was more than enough. It was very small, and we did not even sleep in the bed, just felt dirty. There is no lift, so if you got a big bag like us, its not a good idea as they fill the hotel from the top floors, we were... More

We stayed in the Schangen Hotel even if we booked at the Old Nickel. Long and narrow room in the highest floor (third). Very small and very steep stairs access. Beds separated and distant with no possibility to merge them. Style essential, a bit old and not well kept, sufficiently clean. Free wireless connection. Separate bathroom and shower, very basic...

Not exactly a hotel (a pub, with very old, stinky, dirty bedrooms upstairs). Rooms not ready at the expected time. Personnel complained about us having a 3 year-old child with us, against their own policy of children under the age of 5 staying for free. The man who "welcomed" us was ironic, unpleasant, and extremely rude, to the extent that... More

Sure this place is old, a little dirty, noisy, and my room was no bigger than a queen size bed, but it's hotels like this that make Amsterdam the great place it is. The staff was great and friendly, and the funky little bar downstairs has 60+ different beers. A great bar to start or end your night out in... More

I spent a night here and easily found the hotel from Central Station. It's most conveniently situated, with lots of good eating places within 50-100 metres. The downstairs pub has an excellent selection of good and unusual beers, and my reception was friendly and professional. My single room was tiny, but perfectly sufficient. All was clean, and sharing a bathroom... More
