Not for business trip - can be noisy in the week
Great central location but the night I stayed it was noisy as I had the "Pink" room at the front over looking the bar opposite which was going until the early hours on a week night. Bar downstairs id quite cool and the bar maid was very helpful. OK for a weekend but not for work. Note the shower and toilets are shared, I missed this detail when I booked!

Great value, excellent location.
If you want a truly Dutch experience, T'huis Bij Schell is the place to get it. The rooms are not fancy, but they're clean and artisticaly themed. My bed was a bit softer than I like, but I'm unusual. A huge bonus is the excellent restaurant below the Hotel. Classic dutch dishes are served by a friendly staff in a comfortable setting. The Dutch habe a word for this. Gezellig. My only advice is, travel light, since there is no elevator.

Wonderful staff, very accommodating
The staff were incredibly helpful. We wanted to go into Amsterdam for the day and didn't know what time we would be back. We spoke by phone the night before and they allowed us to come by at 10 to drop off our bags and get our room key though we wouldn't have access until that evening. They helped us up the narrow stairs with our excessive amounts of luggage and were incredibly friendly the whole way through. Check out was very smooth and allowed us to move on to the airport with no issues. Recommended!

Excellent budget option
Great place, I would stay there again. Shared bathrooms are never ideal, but I never had a problem with them in terms of availability, cleanliness, or (why do lists always have to have three?) The room was small, but you knew that and shouldn't spend that much time in the room anyway. The location was good and staff were very nice.

Guesthouse Not Hotel
Firstly its in a good location in the Centrum but can easily be missed as the front of the hotel is a restaurant but best place to look for is Subway, it's next door! Lol. Next, my room was on the top floor which was actually horrific for me because i suffer from asthma and the stairs are really small and close together which makes it difficult getting up there with a suitcase. Although staff helped me I could see she was breathless. Poor thing im sorry. I honestly couldn't stay in that room called 'Mamma' it was freaking me out with the horse head lamps and skulls on the dresser. The is room simply decorated which was fine, its just that the black blinds and carpet made me feel suffocated. After explaining it wasnt a room i could sleep in they offered me another room 'Louise' which was alot better. Very girly, pink and a diamonte bed :). The downfall is the bedroom is located at the front of the building where local night spots can go on till 2/3am. One thing I majorly dislike is its not stated that the bathroom & toilet facilities are shared amongst the people staying on your level. Also I personally would class it as a guesthouse instead of a hotel which would have made me reconsider about booking. Overall a below average experience and its charges for a night is a bit high for what it is. I would recommend including breakfast with the price. But then again Subway is next door and Mcdonalds less than a minute walk away.

SCAMMERS! Rooms have no windows.
SCAMMERS! They sell rooms with no windows!! That is not shown in the page. Once you get there you realize it´s a tiny room with no window and no ventilation, like sleeping inside a closet (I´m talking about sunny August). When I tell to the "receptionist" (that is serving tables in the restaurant at the same time) she replayed that I could sleep with the door open. Nothing makes sense here. It´s a restaurant with rooms, not a hotel. Corridors and stairs smell like old oil fried food coming from the kitchen. Kitchen don´t have smoke extractor (that is not legal), smell goes up to the rooms (they leave the fire exit door at the top floor to get ventilation). A total dissaster.

prima volta in un dormitorio, purtroppo sono io che non mi ci trovo. avevo prenotato per una singola che però è stata riassegnata per motivi di forza maggiore. le ragazze sono sempre state gentili con me, la struttura è anche un pub dove mangiare e bere, è abbastanza in centro e ci son tutti localini. tutto sommato bene, ma la prossima volta starò attenta per la stanza singola! 😊

Buon hotel di ridotte dimensioni
Unico punto negativo le pareti sottili che facevano sentire qualsiasi cosa. La stanza era piccina ma accogliente, anche se senza finestre. Lenzuola, moquette e bagno dignitosi, ottima accoglienza. Posizione molto centrale e un prezzo direi discreto.

Ik had 's nachts wel een andere dronken hotelgast die op mijn deur ging bonken en ging schreeuwen om "Wendy" aangezien d8e naam op de deur pronkte. Dat was het enige mindere. Voor de rest, het personeel was vriendelijk, de kamer schoon, het bed lag lekker en de locatie was top!
