S&A Vondel Park Hotel
Pretty clean hotel and bathroom. I liked the modern look. Staff was very helpful and friendly, they told us local places to visit, gave us adapters and we were able to store our luggage in the day of check out. Only downside is that there us no mini fridge or microwave so you’d have to be eating ...
