Room Mate Aitana, Amsterdam
Excellent experience on check-in, with helpful and friendly staff. Location is excellent, especially if you’re looking for somewhere easy to navigate to, close to the station but a little less busy. Room was very spacious and had lots of amenities. Very happy and would stay again.
