This is a bright, spacious, and quiet room right on the canal ring. The hosts were very accommodating with letting me drop off bags early before the room was ready, and there are beautiful public spaces in the guesthouse too. Breakfast is very Dutch, with the usual jonge kaas (briefly aged cheese) and coldcuts, and good coffee too. Many other guests were German, and I enjoyed the chance to use that language after letting it rust for many years, but for business matters it was no problem to use English here. The location of the guesthouse is really worth mentioning again: if you want to be walking distance to Amsterdam's big attractions, but still have a quiet refuge to return to, this is a great option.
