We have been in Amsterdam many times and this was our best experience. You can’t beat the location (5 minutes away from central) and the lovely quiet neighborhood you’d be staying in. The best of both worlds: you can go and have fun and rest at night without the noise from the street. If you are worried about the ferry: don’t. It never takes more than 5 minutes to cross, sometimes just 1. The room is fantastic, comfy and nicely decorated. The only problem is: you might want to stay and live there!
