I prepaid $450 for one night for this…

I prepaid $450 for one night for this room. For that price, I expected luxury. The room was basic. My expensive booking didn't even include breakfast. The lobby was not that of a fancy hotel, it didn't even have ramps for your luggage (only steps).

My room was on the ground floor around the corner from the front desk. The child center across the street was very noise. My windows were frosted (for privacy), but it prevented a view of the street.

The room was extremely basic. The bathroom door did not open very much because it hit the bed. The air conditioner would not cool the room adequately. The plug above the bed could not be used because it was behind a pillow. No amenities were provided. There were water stains on the ceiling and marks on the walls. A separate tea kettle was not provided, and only two tea bags were in the room.

I can't possibly understand the high reviews written for this basic hotel or how it has a hotel star rating of more than two.

During this trip, I stayed in luxury hotels that were half the price of this one. This is a budget hotel at best, with a high price of a luxury resort. I wanted a nice room for the final night of my trip, and I ended up with the trashiest one and couldn't wait to leave.

I really enjoyed staying at Hotel Artemis hotel last week, the staff are lovely especially the receptionist great customer service. The breakfast was really nice I’ll give it as 10/10. The room is nice but the floor is a bit dirty and needs deep cleaning.

XO Park West - convenient and comforable

Very nice hotel (XO Park West) right by a tram stop which goes to Sloterdijk station one way (one stop, or an easy walk) and into the city the other way. The room was big enough for the two of us, beds were comfortable if a little higher than average and the bathroom well fitted out. We didn't try the breakfast. The reception staff when checking in were friendly and professional. There are a few restaurants as well as a Lidl very nearby. I would stay at this XO again and based on my experience would be happy to use another of their hotels in the future.

All you need in a convenient location

Check in and out was super simple, staff were friendly and appreciated that you could easily opt out of having the room cleaned where it wasn’t needed for such a short stay - the room and bathroom was clean and spacious, location was easy to get to via tram or bus, or only an hour walk into the more central part of Amsterdam.

Surprisingly quiet as well which was much needed after long days exploring!

Fantastic hotel very clean and modern

Fantastic hotel very close to excellent transport links. Convenient for airport and city centre.

Couple of minutes walk from supermarket.

Walked into city from here. Area peaceful and quiet.

Room and hotel spotless and the staff spoke English.

Outside of building drab but modern interior. Definitely recommend.

Breakfast is terrific, beds are great. Rooms in general are very quiet. They need better window blinds. They are difficult to operate or are often non-functioning.

Well, my experience wasn't any better because of two employees.

As highlights, I would point out their back-office work—since they handled my written requests before I arrived—as well as the check-in process with a very attentive receptionist, the lovely room with comfortable beds, and the value for money. I would also like to highlight the Asian receptionists, who were fantastic in handling my questions.

The worst part of the hotel was the poor maintenance of the facilities; one elevator wasn't working, and the building was generally neglected. I must specifically highlight the deplorable way two staff members treated guests. There was a Black receptionist working the morning shift; while he is very professional, whenever I asked him something, I had to be quick because he would cut the conversation short. I told him the hand soap wasn't working, but when I returned that evening, it hadn't been replaced. He was annoyed by my questions and laughed at me when I asked if there was any alternative to taking a taxi on the day of the transport strike. On the day of checkout, it was 10:00 AM; he pointed out that checkout wasn't until 11:00 AM but then asked if I was checking out right then. He clearly wanted me to leave the hotel. You aren't cut out for reception work, even if you are very good at back-office tasks.Another really unpleasant thing about this receptionist was that when we were leaving, I waved to him, but he lowered his head to avoid acknowledging me. Your behavior as a receptionist was appalling.

However, the absolute worst customer service I have ever seen in a hotel came from the older Dutch waiter during our final breakfast. He works hard, but he is a disaster when it comes to dealing with guests. Yesterday morning, he approached me and rudely told me not to even think about leaving food on my plate or having so many plates on the table, claiming it created too much work for him. Why do you work there, then? Do you realize I am a customer and that you have a job thanks to customers like me? You have no right to disrespect me by rudely telling me not to leave food on the table. The sweet items were terrible, and I simply didn't want to drink the coffee I’d left—end of story. If you are going to criticize a customer, remember that they are the one paying your salary and you owe them respect. You lack the manners and social graces required for a public-facing role.

I am a hotel front office manager, and I could write this review on TripAdvisor, Google, or even social media—or report it to the hotel in my own country—to complain about this horrible experience with these two employees. I won't do that, as I don't want to escalate the matter further, but I am documenting my experience here on your website for the record.

Really impressed with the hotel

Really impressed with the hotel, check in was easy, room was spacious, very clean and had everything you needed for a short stay. Wifi was a good speed, 2 x chairs in the room complete with table for relaxing / enjoying coffee (room comes with a coffee machine and some pods, nice touch). Bed was big and comfortable. Shower room was modern, functional and also vert clean. Great hotel all round, would certainly stay again.
