Superbly located on one of Amsterdam's grandest canals only a few minutes walk with your bags from Centraal Station, this comfortable, spotlessly clean and very nicely refurbished property not only has lovely views out onto the canal but is quietly located within three to 30 minutes of very pleasant walking to everything you might want to see in the city. However, if you must, a number of tram routes run conveniently along a nearby street. Although the apartment itself is on a quiet and relaxing stretch of Singel, there are dozens of busy cafes, restaurants and bars in the cluster of attractive streets in the immediate area. Basically, it's perfect for a few days stay and the host is friendly and helpful. Sure, as others have commented, it's at the top of a narrow and steep flight of stairs but if that's a problem for you then I'm afraid it rules out pretty much every canal-side property in the centre of the city and a large percentage of others besides. I would happily stay here again.

As always for short stays, it really would be useful if accommodation could provide some milk sachets to go with the tea and coffee. I can understand why it was sealed-up (the railing was a bit low it's quite a long drop) but it was a pity that the main door onto the Juliette balcony could not be opened. It's hair-raisingly expensive but that's Amsterdam for you these days and you could probably say the same for London, New York and Paris.

The owner greeted us and was super friendly and extremely helpful. The property was exceptionally clean with a light and airy ambience and although small in size, perfect for what we required. Bed was super comfy with really soft bedding, had a fab night's sleep and I could have stayed in the shower for hours with the large rainwater shower head. When we woke up, we made a coffee, opened the curtains and watched the world go by through the large window. The location was equally amazing, close to train station therefore very easy access from the airport into the centre of Amsterdam with all amenities almost on the doorstep of the property. Wish we could have stayed longer and enjoyed the property more... :-)

If you are looking for constructive feedback, in my opinion the communal stairwell would benefit from a refresh as first impressions count. I would have liked a full length mirror somewhere in the room and perhaps a small dressing table/desk area perhaps in the space between the French doors and the head of the bed instead of the side tables. Also, did not see any emergency evacuation procedure (something spotted by me friend, who works in H&S) but perhaps missed this as we only stayed one night... otherwise the premises did have the WOW factor for us and the host was truly amazing.

Location was perfect had a gorgous view over a canal and was quiet but a street away from all the action. Felt very safe and secure. Communication from Roos was prompt and great.

We had two big suitcases with us and there wasn't much room to put them anywhere. Rooms are small in Amsterdam so space is always tricky so I'm not sure how to manage this! We only stayed overnight so not so much of a problem but if for longer it would be hard to manage. The stairs (as mentioned in other reviews - so not a surprise) are not for the faint hearted we are fit and strong but I wouldn't recommend if you have big suitcases and are not able bodied.

The location is perfect ! It is close to everything and the view from the room is beautiful. The bed is very comfortable !

The bathroom was a bit small and the microwave wasn't working. Some mugs weren't very clean and still wet from previous use. The sink in the bathroom kept blocking.

The suite was absolutely perfect for our stay in Amsterdam. Everything we wanted was no more than a 10 minute walk away. The facilities were great especially having a plug next to the mirror and the lighting in the bathroom was amazing for getting ready. The bed was one of the comfiest beds I have ever slept in!! To top it all off the host was so lovely and even put balloons in the room as they knew we were there celebrating a birthday. Definitely recommend and hope to be back there again some time soon.

The room is in a great location and easy to get to. Located in easy walking distance to train station and all sights. Really enjoyed our stay. Bathroom was big and had a great shower. View from the room was gorgeous!

The stairs are really small, like half stairs and they twist. You have to climb three flights with luggage. It was okay for us because we had backpacks and small carry ons but I would be careful if you have mobility issues pf any kind or can’t carry big luggage.

The perfect place to stay in Amsterdam! We stayed 5 nights, we cannot expect better,the flat was very accessorised and comfortable with an incredible view.the position is very nice close to the train station in a very lovely neighbourhood,you can reach every place of interest on foot with no more than a 20 min walk maximum.When they changed the sheets they even gave us extra coffee.If we were to return to Amsterdam we would already know where to stay overnight

Excellent location. Very comfortable, well equipped, extremely clean and well maintained. It was a wonderful stay. Host was friendly and helpful and answered all questions sent beforehand really quickly. We absolutely loved it and will stay here again if we are visiting Amsterdam.

The stairs!!!. But it's Amsterdam. Everywhere has stairs.

Location and view are unreal Some nice pieces of art hung up on the wall Stunning little “garden” at the front of the property Canalside Very quiet but you still hear the sounds of the city.

Many stairs but so worth it for the view and expected for Dutch style homes. We’re fit so it wasn’t an issue to be honest.

It was an enjoyable stay in Amsterdam. The location of the apartment is perfect. You can reach all attractions just walking from your apartment. Many cafes and amenities are just around the corner. The apartment is very cozy, the bed is comfortable, the shower pressure is high, and WiFi is speedy. The view from the apartment is awesome. The communication with the host of the apartment was instant. I strongly recommend this place to anyone.
