Ruby Emma Hotel Amsterdam
Would stay here again and again. The staff were friendly and welcoming, the room was spotless and the layout of the room felt very modern. Also a great location, around 10-15 minutes to Amsterdam Centraal from Spaklerweg on the metro which is less than a 5 minute walk away.

Location is great. Other than that horrible. No service. Friendly staff but couldn’t resolve issues. Not even a cup in the room to brush teeth. Width of the room same size as bed. Shower and bathroom in center of the room for every one to see. Who wants that?? Ever??
