Oostdijk Holidays

So impressed! Incredible value obviously but modern, smart, clean and massive rooms!

We booked the room at the top floor. It's beautiful and HUGE, with a great view of the canal. Loved it. Very romantic. Included breakfast is wonderful, fresh and yummy. Just one weird thing, the first cup of coffee is free but they charge for a second cup of coffee. At the price of this room why ask guests to pay for a second cup of coffee. Seems a little petty.

- We had to switch rooms 3 times: the first room already had other people living in it, the 2.nd room was a double although we specifically requested a twin, the 3rd. Room (120) was filthy (cramped, garbage and dirth behind the beds, broken door to the washroom, non existent view above the roof of some maintaince area; - after moving 3 times we got a 4th room which was lovely although there was a smell of sewage in the bathroom; - huge tip: get yourselves a room in the 5-storey building rather than 8-storey part of the hotel (difference is immense including hight of ceilings, size of rooms, furniture, size of windows): - the breakfast was good (freshly pressed orange juice, smoothies, although fish dishes (hearing or salmon) by the sea were missing for a 4* hotel); - staff was friendly and cooperative.

A no-frills hotel choice. Functional and good location. Very tight quarters, but so is everything in Amsterdam. The staff are helpful and friendly, and provide fresh towels and room cleaning everyday. Other tenants staying here can be noisy, but this is not hotel's fault. Overall good, and I would use again. Very affordable as well.
