Great neighborhood, clean, friendly hosts. Only down-side is that it is above a cafe/bar, so it was rather loud until around 12-1 am, and there was a Saturday and Monday market right out front that was extremely loud setting up in the middle of the night. It was also very hot in August, so we had to keep the windows open, a fan would have helped. FYI, the stairs are very steep, as is the norm in Amsterdam.
