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.

David’s place is in a fabulous location, 5 minutes walk from central station. The room we stayed in was very clean, spacious & had a very comfortable bed. There was a bit of a mix up with room keys at check in but otherwise everything was great

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.
