Hotel Barbacan Amsterdam

There's nothing to do in the hotel.

Wasn't immediately hassled for money (however, had to pay by cash as credit card machine was out of order). Could come and go with ease. Found the staff OK - unlike led to expect from reviews; found another website with more accurate reviews and so didn't have high expectations of hotel. Marvelled with amusement at how such a small room could look so big in the photos! Was more central than expected so easy walking. Nearby restaurants.

Noise. The window didn't shut properly and so it was noisy - especially one morning with tree shredding happening outside at 7.30am. Suggest taking earplugs. Mould on walls - though expected that though from reviews. Very small room. Stairs very narrow and steep. Partner complained of back ache from sagging mattress. Price was OK-ish though

not being in the hotel

everything, the rooms we were given were awful, staff were rude and not very helpful, it was disgusting.

People were very helpful except at breakfast

Bathroom was tiny tiny tiny.

Breakfast was very nice... the room was small but cozy... we only had to sleep there. The area was beautiful - a little hard to find at first - take a good map! Watch out for all the bilkes :-)!

We were so tired when we got there and our room was on the third floor - kinda scary steep steps. The lady at the desk was a little gruff - but we had no problems.

Hotel located in quiet street. Staff was really friendly.

Room was a little bit small.
