New York City

This hotel was in a great location, however it was VERY hard to find. There was only the name of the hotel on the door. They did acommodate us early and let us check in @ 10:00 am. However, the rooms were so small the door hit the bathroom sink. The wall paper was dirty , and the 1st floor is loud. Things we could handle do to location and price at Christmas.

Nice hotel in a great location. Only about a block from the 50th St. subway station on the blue line from JFK. Short walk to Rockefeller Center, central park, and other hotspots. Room was small, but that is what you get for the price in NY, similiar to European hotels. For the price, could not have been happier. Staff was extremely nice and helpful. Would definitely stay again and recommend it.

I stayed here for two midweek nights in early December. The bad news was that while the bath worked and there was plenty of hot water, the gizmo that shunts water to the shower head did not. The good news was it took only one call to get it fixed quickly. My rate was excellent. The location is very convenient for getting up, down or cross town. My only real complaint is that the room was a bit dark due to the use of low wattage bulbs in the bedside and overhead lights. for the rate, it was very good value and I would definitely stay here again.

The staff was GREAT, and the location could not have been better. The only issue I had was that the window unit was not working very well, so my room was extremely warm.

This hotel has a great lobby and that is about it. The first room i was assigned had such a bad smoke smell I was ready to switch hotels all together. The second room was dingy and very loud as it was on the first floor. Had it not been so late I would have changed hotels all together. At 6am I was wide awake because I could hear the staff laughing and joking in the hallways. The staff was rude, and the hotel in general was very very disappointing and a bad value for the money spent.

The Amsterdam is nice for the rate and was the best value for the money. But, if you go with the least expensive room, you'll be able to walk around the bed and that's it, don't plan on bringing more than one suitcase. There is no coffee maker, if that matters. I needed to ice my foot and my husband had to climb three floors because the ice machine was out both nights. But, all of that was ok. They do hold your baggage if you're travel plans are later in the day, but when we went to check out we were the only ones at the desk and the desk clerk wouldn't get the luggage. We had to wait 15 minutes for the baggage guy and that meant we were running to catch the train we thought we would easily make.

The hotel is conveniently located and staff was nice about the check-in--very helpful with our bags and telling where we could park our car (validated!). However the room was very small and the toilet did not work well. Lighting was poor and the room was quite drafty and not heated well. Definitely not a bargain. What I felt was most unkind was offering a breakfast for $10 that was merely a continental style breakfast. It was have been nicer to offer it complimentary with the room.
