The Alfred Hotel was clean, quiet, and comfortable. We had a corner room, so it was a little small but we only were there to sleep, so didn’t matter much. Bikes can be rented at the hotel and we cycled from morning to night to get to Amsterdam Centrum and the Foodhallen. The staff was helpful. The shower was the only thing strange in our room. It was a nice wand and rain shower, but the whole bathroom floor flooded when you showered. It did drain fairly quickly.
