Excellent location, comfortable, clean, and above all quiet - even after a week of staying there I was not disturbed by noise, my #1 concern when in a hotel. I specifically loved the lighting in the rooms. I would not hesitate to stay here again. I had the comparatively boring side for views, but I expect people on the canal side have a beautiful view to boot.
There is basically no storage for clothing, be aware. There is also no phone to contact the main desk. Though they offer only body wash instead of bar soap, they do not provide a washcloth with which to use it.
The bar and coffee service were convenient and unusual for me - American hotels are wildly overpriced and not appealing. Having espresso available right there was helpful more than once, and people reguarly hung out in the lobby in a way that I never see in the US, without question because it was an easy and inviting place to be.
Service was mixed; some folks at desk were very friendly and helpful, others were pretty unhelpful/unkind for a traveller with questions rooted in intrinsically limited knowledge of cultural tropes. But that's to be expected anywhere. Overall, I would not hesitate to stay here again and would recommend it to others.
