"Choosing a hotel in Amsterdam can be difficult. A hotel in the city-center is very expensive, choosing this hotel 10 minutes outside of the city center cost the same, BUT in the city center you get a hostel with shared shower in the corridor, while this hotel is a 5 star hotel. The metro is literally a 2 minutes walk from the hotel and the train leaves every 5-9 minutes and goes directly to the centralstation (smack bang in the center) in less that 10 minutes around the clock every day. So this hotel is a perfect example of how to get the best for less money. The hotel itself is a true Marriot style hotel. Extremely clean in every aspect. Really great rooms with everything you need. A updated and top notch bathroom. A big TV in the room with all the channels you could ask for. I measured the Wi-Fi speed to about 25 mbit/s - a completely OK speed. A totally outstanding bed, probably the best bed I have ever slept in in a hotel. Really nice furniture. A very-very good breakfast with really nice staff. The breakfast had everything I could ask for. Amazing frontdesk staff. There is not one single thing that is bad at this hotel. While it isn,t a true 5-star hotel (luxury-hotels have more amenities) , it,s easy to give this a 5 star rating anyway. This is probably the best hotel you can choose if you want value for money, and cheap luxury and don,t mind the short trip to the citycenter. Top 5 star hotel !"
