What our customers say
Just stayed at the botel recently, had a great break. The evening we arrived was late but the receptionist was pleasant and friendly, we went to the bar for a drink before heading into amsterdam and the barman was very helpful, when we asked could we purchase milk for our morning cuppa he give us some without payment ( i would suggest that if you are staying here bring your own travel kettle its handier ). The rooms are cleaned every day (we went back to sleep one morning and did not leave until near 2pm and thought are room won,t get done today but when we got back later it was done. ( thank-you).We got offered fresh fruit every day which reception has a basket on counter and all the staff was great and helpful. There is also information and these little cards with places to visit with directions and address. I would suggest that you just put on a good pair of shoes and walk everywhere, there is so much to see. There was a vending machine were you could purchase beer for 2euro,s when the bar was closed.The bathroom was small but everything worked and we had no problems. The bed was very comfortable. We didn,t watch t.v but it worked fine. The breakfast was very good croissiants, cereal, toast,bacon, sausages, fresh orange juice, tea et. The shuttle ferry (you will find that these ferries and other ways of travelling around amsterdam are on time all the time ) only took 10-15 minutes crossing and ran regularly until 12pm durning the week and 1am during the weekend, the shuttle bus from the hotel was regular also and had a very nice driver. (shuttle bus and ferry free). We were also given vouchers for coming back again at a reduced cost. All and all i would recommend the botel very highly, and would definitely stay there again. ( it was nice to get out of the center at night-time to go somewhere quiet to sleep and relax.) Can,t wait till my next visit
