Review of KLM Cityhopper flight from Cologne to Amsterdam in Economy

Hello everyone,
Reporting on this opportunity a short hop from Cologne to Amsterdam on KLM, this on start of my day later long haul flight from Europe to Lima.
Check in started in CGN T2 2 hours before departure at the SkyPriority Lane. Interestingly enough, I was designated to be a quality observer for AF/KL for this segment to AMS. Check in was very quick and friendly. CGN has a priority lane for security and in no time I was seated at the ''VIP'' lounge, which of VIP has very little :P

The Lounge operated by the CGN Airport is to say at least…the most below standard lounge I have ever been. It was so small I was feeling like being on the Smurfs village! The selection of food was a joke, cheap old cookies and a terrible selection of drinks. The only acceptable offering was the coffee.
View of the tarmac though is quite nice. I was shocked as I normally avoid low cost carriers to see how a Ryanair flight to Malaga was already boarding and passengers were waiting to board on the jetway while the airplane was just coming in to the gate! :D You got to love European low cost airlines right? This goes specially to Mr. CEO of Ryanair :D

Boarding was done by a bus to the plane. There was no procedure followed and basically no one invited SkyPriority passengers to board first or people needing assistance. Felt a little bit chaotic during the whole process.
The plane had the newly revised livery of KLM which I found very refreshing.

We quickly took off directly to the west and service began. Crew was polite, on a hurry for this short segment and nothing friendly (which I will comment on my conclusion). Today there was a little cake with a selection of hot drinks or juices.

Legroom was above standard but of course this was an Economy Comfort seat, which I get almost for free as a FB Gold.

We landed at the infamous runway (36R?) with a 15 minutes taxi to the gate at Schipol Airport, there was some bizarre situation at the baggage belt. All bags were delivered and mine was missing, which I presented myself at the baggage assistance desk showing my tag and they sorted out that my bag was 'forgotten' at the apron and was soon to be delivered. Thank God it had the Priority tag on it. ;)
BONUS:
As I stated initially, this was the first trip segment of my flight to Lima. I had to stay overnight at AMS and decided to give a try to the Citizen M Hotel at Schipol. Normally before my first choice was the Sheraton Hotel which is just across the terminal but the prices were just crazy and for a good amount of money less I wisely decided to give this hotel a try. I recommend anyone having to stay overnight to try it! I was very pleased with the rooms, very chic and modern. Free premium movies on the room, free WIFI, all electronic controls and even offering a mood light on your own room! Very very recommendable to all my fellow world travelers.
