Hamed was away but we met his cousin, who showed us our room. He was very nice, and helped us whenever he could (providing umbrellas, storing our bags, etc). The room is small and simple but enough for our stay. The tv was nice. The area wasn't too noisy considering you were so close to everything. The location is really great! Very close to the train station, attractions and the red light district. The airport to the train station costs 5 euros and then it is a 5-10 minute walk to his place. As mentioned in other reviews, the room is located above Hameds store and you need to go up some steep windy stairs to get there. This was not a problem for us because we had back packs but if you had a lot of bulky luggage I could see it being hard to get up the stairs.
We enjoyed our stay in Amsterdam and would recommend staying here if you are one or two people and just requires the basics.
