Fantastic location. On the pricey side, but definitely a great and authentic place to stay. For us, travelling with a 1.5y old baby, this was not the right place, however, as the narrow stairways up to the 4th floor were almost unmanageable with a stroller and luggage (and the baby..). They really tried to make it work for us and having forgotten that they needed a cot for us, they quickly went and bought one. But for young families we just wanted to say: as a young or old couple we would give 5 stars, travelling friends 5 stars, but with a baby think again (or take into account the fact that you have to climb these stairs :)). It's right at the canal, nice small café next door to it, beautiful bridge, walking distance to boat tours, the Spui, the park etc.
