Rotterdam Inn

It is best for backpackers. Location is close to the tram, train. Room is clean.

The hotel was close to the train station, which is why we booked it. The room looked like it had been recently renovated which was nice. Overall I would book it again.

I gave 2 stars because of its convenient location near the train station and for being in a nice neighborhood next to the canal. The building is beautiful from the outside, but that is its only redeeming quality. I suggest you admire it from the outside and avoid staying in it. This place is an old apartment with many units; each is tiny. There are many challenges with this building. First, the stairs are steep and narrow with many turns. It is hard to climb, especially with luggage. Second, there is no AC. When we arrived, it was 32C inside. We opened the windows to cool the apartment down. We later found many mosquitoes inside. Each of us were bitten alive throughout the night. We tried to cover ourselves with blankets but with the high temperature, it was impossible. We saw many blood stains on the wall, realizing they are from the mosquitoes killed from previous residents. The third challenge is from the shower, as it is higher than the rest of the bathroom floor. The bathroom floods every time we shower. It took us 10-15 minutes to clean up with towels. We did not wash our hair for 3 days, afraid that it would flood in the living area. Last but not least, the hotel says it has laundry for its residents, but the washer and dryers on every floor were always occupied by the apartment keeper, using it to wash the whole building’s blanket and towels. We had to go to a laundromat and wait there for two hours to get our laundry done. I do not recommend this apartment.

Very good location to explore Rotterdam and othr cities. The area is quiet and safe. I would It recommend!

I stayed in one of the apartment with 2 more people. The accommodation is tidy and nice. The host response quick and friendly. The only issue is sofa bed cannot be opened properly.
