Pros: Close walk from central station while being far enough to lose some of the hustle and bustle. Close to the tram stop a couple of blocks away. A close walk to the Jordaan and the Anne Frank House. Nice area for restaurants and bars. Washer and dryer available for those who pack light.
Cons: Noise level from upstairs was unbearable at times. Wifi was spotty.
All and all, it was a decent place to stay when exploring Amsterdam.
