XO Hotels Blue Square

I stayed at this hotel for four nights, the hotel is in a great location and there are many transportation options nearby, many food and shopping places, but the cleanliness is very poor, the first day I noticed dirty water glasses so I thought it was just a small mistake, but the other three days I was really upset because the housekeeping only made the bed and changed the towels while not cleaning the floor, bathroom or washing the glasses, the coffee ran out in my room and they didn't bring me coffee, I complained to the receptionist and he gave me coffee but this is annoying it shouldn't happen.

Room is clean and comfortable but little bit far away from the centre, need to get the tram and bus to get there.

If you’re a tourist, you’re better off somewhere else. Invest in a good room. Don’t cheap yourself out! We rushed our trip and didn’t get to research hotels properly. We ended up here mainly because of price. If you’re thinking “you get what you pay for”, tbh I think there are places in the same price range who are much better. Anyway, the area is a bit sketchy to start. Dutch people are the minority. The building looks old too, inside AND outside. (Especially inside) Going inside, the lobby already had a certain smell. Further inside, our room smelled SO bad. It was hard to breathe until I adjusted to the smell (no one has to go through this!). I’d get a whiff of piss smell from time to time too, it was awful. The bottom of the bed was full of dust too. Something was probably hidden there. Then for the service, housekeeping doesn’t speak English. This gave me a feeling that maybe this hotel isn’t meant for tourists, but probably for migrants. One off thing that happened was 2 housekeeping people just barged in while we were inside. One good thing about our stay though was the bathroom. It was nice, and I think was recently renovated. Really nice.
