citizenM Schiphol Airport
Staff was outstanding in being helpful. Breakfast was a disappointment since all of the “hot” food was tepid at best. The cold foods were great. Overall, I recommend this choice. I’ve included the view from our room.

Hotel ibis Schiphol Amsterdam Airport
The room was ridiculously small and to make it worse they had a 3rd bed in it. A real rip off. You could not swing a cat in there.

Hotel Fogo Amsterdam
It was great and clean but there are not much to do in that area and it’s a bit far from Amsterdam

Carlton Beach
Stayed in room on the 6th floor close to elevator and maybe a custodial closet? Constant noise of doors opening and shutting. Shower was leaking but it worked. Water pressure could be better. Staff was amazing: Friendly and helpful!
