We stayed here for a week and had a lovely time. The staff were very friendly and accommodating (one has a very good sense of humor too). The location of the hotel is right next to the canal and we were very lucky to have been assigned a room in the third floor overlooking it. If you are an informed and conscious traveler, you would understand that this is a very old building (which is a very charming fact) so walls could be thin. It did not matter to us because hey, you are staying in a historical building. Some reviewers online say that the rooms are small but they are actually decent sized. There were three of us in the room and it did not feel too tight at all unlike the typical ones in Tokyo, for example. The location is also extremely convenient. Everything is within walking distance—including the Amsterdam Centraal station. We would definitely book here again if we return to Amsterdam.
