We had an exceptional stay. The host (Christian) was very kind and responsive to messages. Nothing was too much trouble. The room was much bigger than expected and the very large windows make it feel open and airy. Plenty of storage space. We unexpectedly had an amazing view of the start of the Amsterdam Pride canal parade so could watch the whole thing in complete comfort. It’s in a quiet residential area and the window soundproofing is amazing so we slept wonderfully. Finally, the quiet but effective ceiling fan made the hot summer nights very comfortable. Would definitely stay again.

Nothing - it was all amazing.

The room was exactly as it was described and bigger. Extra clean and comfortable. Decor was simple, elegant and warm. It has two plants, and enough to be comfortable without taking unnecessary room away. There were sweets and good wine as courtesy. Smart TV with internet, premium YouTube and the possibility to connect your Netflix, Disney+, etc to it. Now the host, he was super!! Very attentive, flexible and kind. He told us of a very good places to go. Finally, the location. 10-15 mins walk from Central station, downtown, music center, and 5 minutes walk from main museum. The location was simply perfect.

Nothing I can think about.

This is in just a lovely part of town, off the tourist trail, a long way from those things that, unfortunately, make Amsterdam a haven for groups of slightly debauched looking young men, yet only a couple of bus stops (or a 20 minute walk - the longer more picturesque way) from Central Station and indeed a nice walk into the centre by quiet roads, or a 14 tram from five minutes away. The house is modern, but in the manner of a typical small canal house, on what is still a working canal with lifting bridges. It has a lot of lovely bars and restaurants nearby and it's great not having to go into town in the evening with all its awfulness. We were concerned the room might be noisy, but with the window open on a Friday and a Saturday night there was almost no traffic noise and only the odd conversation from young people wending their way home. The room was very comfortable and clean; we were on the first floor with a big window looking over the canal. It really is a charming place. There was a good coffee maker, mineral water and even a half bottle of wine provided gratis.

Nothing really. A second bedside table would help though.

Full Disclosure - I am not rating the Canal House Inn. The owner/manager(?) offered me a free upgrade to another property - an apartment overlooking a canal, close to the city center. It was amazing, and if you get a similar offer, I suggest you take it! Also, Christian - who was my contact (I think the manager, not the owner) was super responsive.

Nothing. It was great! 3rd floor, so some stairs, but they were manageable, and Christian helped with the bags. It was not clear how to get the washer/dryer to just run a dry cycle, (my dutch is non-existent) but it was great to have to do some luandry.

Wonderful spacious room with astonishing view from the huge window facing the channel. This view is one of the highlights from the trip:) You have all that you need, even a small fridge and a coffee machine. Very comfortable beds. You are close to the city center but away from the crowds and noise. Very useful tips where to go from the owner. Loved the place!

You can hear some noise from neighbors and be prepared for steep stairs. But it's common for old wooden buildings :)

Amazingly clean with a great host. We loved that it was in a community as opposed to a tourist area. It was a bit of a walk but we enjoy that. Close to everything, within 15 minute walk. Enjoyed that there was a small fridge with coffee and teas each morning. Beautiful canal view. The restaurant Verena a few doors down was delicious

It was a bit warm at night but we were able to open the windows. The bathroom was well equipped with towels but it was small.

Being located on the vibrant area of the city, next to a beautiful canal, within a walking distance from Central Station and the main attractions, the apartment is very quiet and has stunning view from the window! The room is spotless clean with coffee facilities and a comfortable bed. The host, Christian, is kind, supportive and very responsive. In addition to all the advantages, there are also great restaurants and cafes nearby. Fully enjoyed staying there!

Everything

Had to leave my luggage in a random Thai noodles bar😂

We had an amazing stay at this Airbnb in Amsterdam! The location couldn’t have been better – right in the heart of everything. The apartment was spotless, cozy, and had a stunning view. Our host was incredibly welcoming, gave us fantastic food recommendations, and made us feel right at home. We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Amsterdam!

There was a technical error in the booking process and once we've completed it the owners, Christian, advised us it was double booked and our reservation is cancelled. He then immediately offered to move us to another apartment which was larger, better located and a great solution to the problem. Christian simply said yes to any request we had, including allowing us to checkout very late at the last day, which was superb. So while we did not get to see the Canal house our experience was excellent.
