Krisotel Amsterdam

The hotel trades on friendly staff and a charming central location near canals, but cramped box-like rooms (one guest described theirs as 2x2m storage converted to bedroom), inconsistent cleaning, noise from other guests, and overheating issues undermine any warmth the place might otherwise offer.
