The manager was absolutely amazing and extremely helpful. The decor was traditional ,very comfortable and cozy. Toiletry necessities were provided. Really enjoyed opening the balcony doors for fresh air, and being able to sit and watch boats go by in the canal. There is a happening indoor / outdoor bar, a restaurant just steps away and an excellent Thai restaurant just down the street.

The only challenging part was navigating the very narrow curving stairs to the upper level It was impossible to get our suitcases up the stairs and therefore had to leave them in the downstairs main hall. This made accessing our suitcases awkward If you’re travelling with a carry on or knapsack your fine. Having said that we managed and were not concerned about leaving our suitcases in the hall as the place is very secure and the location is very safe.

We loved staying here. Eric was so welcoming and helpful and the apartment was so cosy- we loved staying in an authentic canal house. There was a little balcony to enjoy a glass of wine and watch the world go by. It was also very central but still peaceful at night.

We loved everything but, as others have said, be aware that the apartment is on the 3rd and 4th floor up very narrow and steep stairs so I wouldn’t recommend it if you have mobility issues or heavy/bulky luggage.

Great location on Prinsengracht - right on the canal and close to cafe’s and the tram. And most attractions (like Anne Frank House, Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh Museum, Dam Square)are in walking distance. Eric was a wonderful host with clear easy instructions to meet up, and helpful with any questions thru our stay. Thoroughly recommended.

Not a dislike, just a ‘warning’ - staying in a canal house means you will need to deal with steep, narrow stairs. Simply the way they were designed.

What a wonderful place to stay! Eric was such an amazing host, very helpful, knowledgeable & ready + eager to help with recommendations, reservations and any questions we had about the area. The space itself was very clean and so homey and comfortable which is exactly what we were looking for. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was clean. The balcony was such an added bonus, right over the canal - just stunning!! The only thing I will say (& this is not at all a complaint just a warning) If you are old or handicap, please be warned about the stairs they are very very steep and skinny.

Nothing, it was perfect!

What a beautiful and charming apartment and the location was fantastic! The balcony was amazing with a view of the canals that would be hard to beat. We had a lovely stay here, Eric was so welcoming and gave us some great tips for things to do. The apartment had everything we needed and more, we were sad to leave and can’t wait to go back!

Nothing, it was perfect!

What a lovely property - we felt like a local and wished we could stay longer. Very spacious, clean and comfortable. Eric was a very kind and friendly host. Great location on the Prinsengracht. Would love to stay here again.

There is nothing to say….stairs are steep and narrow as others have mentioned but this is Amsterdam. For us, it made it feel authentic!

This is a very comfortable apartment, which has everything. The building dates back to the 1600s, beautiful historic site, and perfect location in quite canal street. Eric, the owner, gives you a friendly welcome and offers you good advice and information. Very, very good for everything.

Can't really think of anything I didn't like

Wonderful location right on the canal, in an excellent area of Amsterdam. Eric, the host, was wonderful. The property was clean and extremely quiet. We would definitely return.

Narrow stairs require some care to navigate

Wonderful attention to detail. Every comfort has been thoughtfully provided with lots of special touches. Comfortable bed, great shower and large bath. Delightful owner greeted us and showed us around his stunning canal house. View of the canal is perfect.

Nothing. We would stay here again and again! Just lovely!

Excellent location. Easy to get a number 2 or 12 tram from Central station to property. 8 minutes walk to Van Gogh & Rijks museums. Lovely locals pub over the bridge of canal.. also great local pub/bistro 3 minutes away from the property. Really super central, quiet, clean and comfortable. Host is great. Lots of bathroom toiletries. Welcome basket was a treat.
