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.
