The place was great. It was very convenient and we were able to walk to wherever we needed. The room was a good size and the bed was very comfortable. I would say that if you’re a light sleeper this may not be the spot for you. You can definitely hear the owners above the room when they’re walking and coming down the stairs in the morning, but if that doesn’t bother you (didn’t bother us) it’s a great place to stay!

Really nice place to stay in the densest part of Amsterdam. It's a short walk from the main train station and to tram services, and there is an endless variety of bars and restaurants in easy reach. Be aware that this property is immediately adjacent to one of the red light sections of the city, so if you're traveling with children, they might be seeing some naughty things.

100% recommend

Perfect location, everything is on the doorstep. Great host, very friendly and helpful. Allowed us to leave our things there on check in and check out days. The room was very clean and had everything you could ever need. Given how close it was to all the nightlife you really couldn’t hear much which was great. Couldn’t fault it in anyway, if I were to go back to Amsterdam I’d 100% stay there

Good location. 17 steep narrow steps to get to your room and carry your suitcase, no lift. Not suitable if you have mobility issues. Owner lives upstairs, can hear footsteps every time and early morning. B&B as advertised, however no breakfast offered. Queried the owner, explanation is he cannot advertise accommodation under Hotel, instead advertised as B&B which can be misleading. Owner is friendly, overly priced. Not suitable for elderly people and with huge and heavy suitcases.

Canal view is amazing. Location is great. Management is nice. But mattress is not good at all. It hurt ours back and we couldn't sleep. Also sound proof is very poor.

The properties location was so perfect and central. It was 5 minute walk from the station and 2 minutes from the red light district and other main attractions. We went for the canal view room but due to the central location wasn't ever really able to open the curtains as you have a lot of people walking past. Didn't have any issue with noise from the street but could hear people in rooms in the building walking around etc but didn't disturb us much. Overall a really great apartment in a perfect location. Would definitely recommend.
