The staff were very helpful as we needed to check in after they had left for the day, so we arranged to pick up the cards using the lock box. The room was nice, although if you have any mobility issues, you may find the typical Dutch steep staircases quite hard to navigate. The bathroom door didn't close properly but the staff explained how the old buildings in the area shift a lot and this was why. The AC was a little noisy and you heard footsteps on the stairs but other than that it was quite quiet (except a faint sound of music from nearby bars). For the price I am pleased with the accomodation and really liked the colour schemes and it was fantastic being so close to a town centre by Rembrantplein and plenty of places to go for food and drink nearby. It's also very close to tram links which is very handy.

As three 18 year olds the room was perfect and the location amazing, we were able to walk everywhere we wanted, and the beds were very comfortable. The only improvement I can think of is if there was another mirror included in the room, thanks for a lovely stay.

The Bolster is in a great location just off Rembrandtplein and a short walk from the flower market. A boutique style hotel that offers room only. The property is in the older narrow typical dutch style so beware of the stairs as they're steep and narrow! The Bolster is clean and tidy, offers value for money and the staff are lovely!
