Great location and authentic feel

The location is beautiful and the apartment is very clean and well styled. The property was a little tricky to locate at first as there is no signage/reception. Be aware that you will need to take your luggage up a very narrow flight of stairs.

Nothing works

Really dirty place. Everything seems broken. Dust everywhere, toilet doesn't flush properly, you have to do it manually, the button plate is broken. The jacuzzi bath doesn’t work, the shower on the bath doesn't work it was the only reason we chose the hotel. Let down.

Dopo aver atteso le 15:00 per accedere alla camera all arrivo riscaldamento staccato, finestre aperte, polvere e ragnatele ovunque. La camera era davvero sporca, probabilmente le pulizie nell’ ultimo anno non erano mai state fatte, e per ciliegina sulla torta una carta di preservativo sotto il letto, Ho fatto notare il tutto al proprietario che si è presentato senza preavviso alla porta della camera, dopo aver fatto notare il porcile nel pomeriggio ha almeno provato a togliere le ragnatele, la carta del preservativo è rimasta sotto il letto, Che dire una camera davvero sporca, se prenotate per due persone la polvere vi farà molta compagnia

We booked a stay here in March. On arrival we found the property to be dirty and have a bad smell. The carpets are dirty, and the bed headboard was broken and also smelled like the sheets had not been clean. The pillows are also yellow and stained. The owners were contacted but did not reply until several hours later. As the property is not habitable we had to book alternative accommodation. The owner's pictures do not represent the current condition of the property. Avoid staying here. If you look the property listing on other websites (trip advisor) you will see similar complaints about how unhygienic the property is.

Good location, no shower pressure and road works

Good location and very spacious room. Access was easy. However, the shower is a real dribble (not enough water pressure) and there is major road works on the street which are audible from bed. Not only you can hear the noise but the bed also will vibrate in the morning as the excavators are doing work. If they fix the water pressure and the road works get done it's a good location.

We did not receive notification our room was ready until we prompted after 3pm. No toilet paper, so communicated immediately to staff, but no response until next day. Had to ask friend for TP, which was embarrassing. Staff realized we were missing bath mat, additional towels and coffee pods, so sent next day. We are young, but stairs would be difficult for older guests with bags. Should be warning about this in bio. Bags of laundry littered the common hallway for 2 days. Unique space, but not worth the trouble, however neighborhood and location are great!

Esta propiedad no es lo que dicen y muestran ser en esta plataforma. El propietario me estafo, porque cuando estaba tratando de comunicarme con el nunca y este me respondio, al igual que no le respondia a los agentes de expedia. Me mantuvo esperando por mas de 2 horas afuera de la propiedad y cuando me estaba yendo del lugar aparecio alguien el cual me pregunto: estas esperando a MIKE? le dije si, y luego me mando la informacion de como acceder a la propiedad. Las escaleras eran la entrada al infierno, trate de subir al primer piso y mis problemas en la espalda no me permitieron subir un escalon mas. Y lo peor es que estuve tratando de cancelar para tener un reenvolso y El dijo que no me reenvolsaria y yo perdi mi dinero. en pocas palabras esto es una estafa, es un irresponsable por no poner los reales detalles de la propiedad, aparte de la peste que tenia en el pasillo. Ladron es mi definicion para este dueno. English: This property is not what they say and show on this platform. The owner scammed me because when i was trying to communicate with him, he never responded, just as he did not respond to Expedia agents. He kept me waiting for more than 2 hours outside the property, and when I was leaving the place, someone appeared and asked me: are you waiting for MI*E? I said yes, and then he sent me the information on accessing the property. The stairs were the entrance to hell, I tried to go up to the first floor, and my back problems prevented me from climbing it.

This place is in a very good locations. Walkable distance to many attractions. Conveniently nearby cafes, restaurants  and grocery stores. There are decent luggage storage places about 5-10 mins away, if you arrive before check in time. My only con is the very tiny fridge and stairs. If you have heavy luggage or bad knee, then I wouldn't recommend this place. Otherwise it's a really great place to stay.

The room was really comfortable and clean and the location is great. Pretty cool place to stay overall. A bit noisy on the street at night but that cannot be helped. The room had almost all the necessities...could have used more towels, some creamers/sugar for the in-room coffee offering and some of the lighting was missing. I would stay again though as it was nice overall! The staff, while not on hand were easily and promptly accessible by texting.

Great location

The location is excellent and the room is spacious and very comfortable. Check in was easy with the lock box and communication was very good. We did find that there were no towels left in the room for us but this was rectified very quickly. There is no door between the room and bathroom which we knew about but were a bit confused as to how one couldn’t be put in, even if just a curtain! Also the jacuzzi bath is really nice but it would be great if the owners could leave instructions for using it as there are quite a lot of knobs and buttons! Overall though, we had a fantastic stay and the location and character of the property made our trip.

Lovely apartment!

Such a lovely apartment, in an excellent location. We were able to walk everywhere from here. Very close to places to eat and drink. The apartment itself is beautiful. Very clean and spacious with everything you need during your stay. Check in was seamless as we were met there by a prearranged check in time. Note that the stairs are very steep (not uncommon in Amsterdam!) which was not a problem for us but may be for other people. Will definitely stay here again! Thank you! :)

I liked the area of this property a lot. The staff is accomodating and helpful. We had to message them that we were at the property and someone was there within 10 minutes. She carried our bags up to the loft and answer any questions. During the day the street is quiet but a lot of the night it is noisy and you hear it. We slept fitfully. Three flights of stairs was a chore. I loved the heated floors in the bathroom. It did get stuffy in the room so we opened the bathroom window until bedtime (noise). It is close to the flower market and many good restaurants.
