Does anybody know whether "westcord Art Hotel Amsterdam" is the same
thing as "Golden Tulip Amsterdam Art" or not?  They appear to have the
same street address (Spaarndammerdijk 304), but Google Maps shows them
300 meters apart and has different zip codes (1013 ZX versus 1069
Legemeer).

I booked mine through lastminute.com for GBP 369 (four nights, excluding
breakfast, including free wifi, excluding 5% city tax).

(Free wifi was the deciding factor for cancelling my prior Hotel Ibis
reservation.  Lower price was just a bonus ;-)
