Staff is all so helpful. The room i would say just weird having a number two right in the room like that. Unless you close your glass circular doors for your business. This is best for a single traveller. Definitely not a friend’s room.

Hotel ibis Schiphol Amsterdam Airport
Staff was friendly, rooms were clean and airport shuttle was convenient. Only complaint was that their restaurant food was overpriced. I expect hotels to be more expensive but I found it a bit excessive. I would stay there again, just not eat at onsite burger restaurant.

Anantara Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky Amsterdam
I booked two rooms during the tulip season, but the weather was not favorable. Therefore, we expected heating in the rooms, and there was none in either of them. Everyone complained about the same issue. Additionally, the breakfast is not the same as in 2020; it is significantly inferior.
