I found the hotel to be situated conveniently near the central train station, making it easy to access various parts of the city. The rooms were simple, but the lack of lockers and the uncomfortable plastic mattresses did not make for a restful night's sleep. The service could use some improvement, particularly at the reception desk and during reservations. The dining experience left me feeling a bit disappointed with the limited food options. On the bright side, the location in a quiet area behind the Centraal Station was a welcome escape from the tourist crowds.
