    Our stay at this hotel was excellent. We stayed for one night but could have stayed longer because the conditions are great for the price. The staff is very friendly and they speak English very well. Breakfast is not too extensive, but it's quite enough to start the day. Our room has a view of the street, which is another plus. You get to see the streets of Amsterdam empty first thing in the morning 😊 Everything is really clean and tidy. The bathroom is small but sufficient for the needs of 2 people. The stairs are steep, but that's known in Amsterdam and quite common. For those with a lot of luggage, it might be quite challenging. The location is excellent, you're in the center. Highly recommend this accommodation. We will gladly return to the same place.

    Just be aware that the owner doesn't speak a perfect english and "Can you pay now" actually means "You can pay now", that was a bit disturbing at first 😅 Be aware there is no lift - only stairs If you are fit enough, this is quite charming 😌

    Excellent location, very very charming hotel, outside and surroundings Quite comfy! Small but functional bathroom Decent breakfast served in the room 😋 at 8am only, but you can still get your plate and go back to sleep 😄

    Great value, perfect location, and old historic building for anyone who can handle stairs

    The stairs were SUPER steep. Luckily we are young and fit but getting our bags up long flights of super-steep stairs without help was pretty dicey. The breakfast is delivered at 8:30 am every day so either you eat then or you miss it. Not a big deal to me but something to be aware of.

    Staff was friendly and helpful, room was in beautiful old building with lots of traditional touches, right in the canal district in a fantastic location. If you don't need "fancy" and can handle the stairs then this little gem of a hotel is for you. We went during tulip season so it was actually pretty expensive at the time but I think this hotel at their regular rate is an even better value. The breakfast was surprisingly good with various items like yogurt, juice, fruit, croissant, toast, and more. Water pressure was good and shower got nice and hot. Room furnace worked great as well. Lovely view onto a charming street.

    Not really a complaint per se, but other reviewers had mentioned "the stairs", and yes one needs to think twice if they have knee problems, mobility issues, large heavy luggage, whatever. They are steep and there are a lot of them.

    The room, though cozy, was fine. Clean, warm, well lit. The bathroom was even cozier, but adequate. Breakfast was very good. Staff were very nice and accomodating, offering chocolates after climbing the stairs (see below). They were also good about not canceling us when the original credit card I had used to secure the room was cancelled at the last minute due to being hacked. And they let us store some oversized luggage in the office so we wouldn't have to haul it the rest of the way up to our room.

    I didn't like how they took a big deposit before I got to the property and it took them over 7 days returning the money which left me out of pocket apart from that I couldn't fault the hotel maybe the stairs would be abit steep for older people.

    The location was brilliant couldn't fault it what so ever.

    Do not expect anything from the Breakfast.

    Location is great in the middle of Amsterdam. Within walking distance of all important sightseeing places. Very small room but that is what you can expect in the middle of the centre. Price / quality is good.

    The staff was wonderful, so friendly. The room we had was awesome with two loft beds. We loved everything about it! The only issue was the shower and then toilet shared one floor so it was prone to flooding, but it wasn’t a problem. Would definitely recommend especially because of the location! Easily walkable to all of the major attractions!

    If you have large suitcases, it is a bit difficult to carry them up the stairs because there is no elevator.
