About this bed and breakfast
THE SPACE
The accommodation is located on the 3rd and 4th floor of a late 19th century building, one block away from the lively Jordaan district (and the western edge of the historical centre), but in a very quiet area.
The bedrooms (free of any personal stuff and clothes) have both 2 single boxspring beds, which allow you to combine them according to your needs: two doubles, four singles or one double and two singles.
Both feature LED smart tv with UK, German, French, Spanish and many more satellite platforms. Also, you can log in with your Netflix account.
On the same floor there is a bathroom -with floor heating- with bathtub and large sink and a separate wc with small sink. Both have marble flooring.
The accommodation is also perfectly equipped to host one baby aged 0-2, since we have baby cot and bedding, diapers changing pads, two different high chairs and stair gates at both ends of the inner staircase.
We also have a nice and sunny balcony overlooking a marvelous and quiet court.
THE NEIGHBORHOOD
The best thing about our neighborhood is enjoying great tranquillity while living literally two steps away from some of the best restaurants, shops and markets in town, and having the most popular spots (Dam Square, Canal Belt, Westerkerk, Central Station, Anne Frank's House, Red Light District, Leidseplein...) within walking distance.
If you don't fancy a walk or renting a bike there's trams and buses leading you everywhere in town.
Our area itself is a strongly up and coming one, thanks to fantastic redeveloping projects like the Westergasfabriek and, more recently, De Hallen.
WALKING
Everything in the center, the up and coming West neighborhood and the Museum Quarter are literally within walking distance.
BIKING
Plenty of bike rentals in the area.
PUBLIC TRANSPORT
Tram 3 leads you to the Museumplein and De Pijp.
Tram 5 to the Leidseplein.
Buses 18 or 21 to Central Station. Bus 21 in the opposite direction to P+R Bos en Lommer (the closest Park & Ride, 10 minutes away).
PARKING
Parking in Amsterdam is very expensive (6 euro per hour in my area and 7,50 just one block away in the Jordaan!), but there's the cheap alternative of the P+R (Park + Ride) arrangements.
It costs 8 euro for the first 24 hours and then 1 euro per day if you arrive before 10:00 or just 1 euro per day if you arrive after 10:00, and you can get discounted public transport tickets to get to the final destination and back to the parking.
The address of the closest one (P+R Bos en Lommer) is Leeuwendalersweg 23B.
If that is full you can turn to the P+R Sloterdijk (Piarcoplein 1).
CANCELATION
Regardless of official cancelation policy, I refund up to 100% if the accommodation is booked again on the same nights. If less nights are booked you are still getting back the money made by this new reservation.
In case of global crises (pandemics etc.) you can still count on my flexibility to find a fair solution for everybody, whether is reschedule or refund.
CHECK-IN
Baggage drop can at any time, even early in the morning.
Check-in can from 12:00 or at any time if the previous guests have left already (otherwise luggage drop only). But the accommodation can only be accessed once the cleanup is finished, and the time may vary (usually it's around 15:00).
Due to bad past experiences, check-in is performed in front of the whole group, or with no more than one guest missing.
If one or two guests arrive earlier than the others they can still come leave their luggage but will have to wait for the arrival of the rest of the group to properly check in.
Exceptions are only made for mature/elderly travelers.
CHECKOUT
Check-out is at 12:00, but if no one's coming on that day or comes pretty late it's possible to arrange a later checkout time.
It's still possible to leave the luggage until your desired time.
SMOKING
Due to complaints by my ground floor neighbor all forms of smoking producing buds and/or ashes are forbidden anywhere in the accommodation, balcony included.
EXTRA PEOPLE
The accommodation is only equipped to sleep 4 people, plus one baby.
That's the legal maximum, too. And it's a very important requirement by the Council.
Under no circumstance we can allow extra people, at any time during your stay.

This property was the perfect location for our trip. We were able to walk to everything we wanted and it was easy to use public transportation from the train to the flat.
The host was very accommodating and available to us for all our needs through the trip.

We stayed at this flat for 2 nights while in Amsterdam. Would highly recommend for location, cleanliness and comfort. There are 3 flights of steep stairs to access flat so pack light and ensure there are no mobility issues!

Nice apartment in good location.

Loved our stay with Flavio. He was very accommodating, very kind, and had a lot of useful information on staying in a city we were unfamiliar with.
4.6
This property is in a great location. You can walk to many fantastic Amsterdam locations and sites, and you can rent bicycles nearby or hop on transit. There is a generous amount of space. One thing to consider- access to the property and moving around inside the property requires the ability to navigate steep stairs with narrow treads. This was not a problem for us, but be aware before booking.

Was pleasant, However I would suggest making a parking place available for guests

We came for a short break for the Tulip Festival. The apartment was comfortable and clean. Flavio was super helpful. The location is brilliant, so many super restaurants just a few minutes walk away. Highly recommend.
4.6
Flavio was very understanding and easy to deal with, having had to move our booking numerous times due to COVID and travel restrictions - all of which he was more than happy to assist with. The property was as described and overall we had a very pleasant stay. The neighbourhood is nice and quiet (there are plenty of great cafes, resteraunts and a supermarket nearby) however you're only a very short walk away to Jordaan and then further on, the city centre. Trams also stop nearby to the apartment.
Upon arrival to Amsterdam Flavio was easily contactable in the morning and more than happy for us to drop our bags slightly earlier prior to check in which was really helpful.
I'd highly recommend.

This property is located close to my daughter's home and thus provides us with a convenient accommodation for a party of four visiting family members. Enjoying good views and situated in a quiet location in close proximity to a supermarket and tram stop it provides all facilities for a comfortable stay.
The typically Dutch town property provides good excercise through its numerous flights of stairs whilst the lounge-to-bedroom flight should be fitted with hand-rails.
Overall a good, comfortable accommodation.

We stayed here while visiting our son that lives in Amsterdam. It served our needs perfectly. Walking distance to groceries, an amazing bakery and a great bike rental.
I would definitely consider staying here again
4.6
The location was great. We could walk everywhere. Flavio was fantastic and was very welcoming. Just be sure you can climb 50 extremely steep stairs to get to the apartment.
Would definitely stay there again!

The property is exactly as described in the listing. Flavio was super helpful when we arrived and described everything we needed to know. He even helped us with our luggage! An enjoyable stay in Amsterdam!

Spacious fully equipped apartment in a quite location but close enough to the vibrant centre.
Superb stay in this apartment, host is excellent, very clean with everything you'll need for a very comfortable stay in Amsterdam. Would highly recommend this place.

We had a nice time in this property. It was well located and Flavio was very accommodating and helpful. There were lovely restaurants and parks nearby, as well as a nice coffee shop Back to Black for our morning coffee.
Take Flavio’s warning about the stairs seriously. We were just fine with it as an active family, but it would be impossible for those with limited mobility. Flavio is very homest about that in his listing.

The apartment was in a quiet residential area with excellent access to bus and tram. The stair climb to access it was considerable but manageable. (Flavio the host even helped carry up our bags) The kitchen was well stocked and the beds were comfortable. I would recommend this apartment.

We had a great stay in the apartment. The location is excellent, being only about 10 mins walk from Anne Frank's House. Jordaan is a really lovely area, with lots of great canal side places to eat and drink, lovely shops and lots to do. Close to the apartment there is a good supermarket and a lovely selection of restaurants. It is around a 30 min walk from the central station, which you can get a train to straight from the airport in around 20 mins. Great weekend markets nearby also. The host was really helpful and knowledgeable about the area. I would recommend staying here.

Great time in Amsterdam
If you don't mind climbing stairs, this location is ideal and close to everything you will want to see and do in Amsterdam. The apartment is very nice and comfortable, with plenty of hot water. Would recommend this property to future visitors.

Great place to stay
Even though there were 3 flights of stairs, the property manager was right there to take all our luggage up the stairs and into the rooms. He was really great through out our stay
4.6
Not what it seems
A more honest description of the place should have included that it was up three flights of stairs, old and the building leaning so much that the floors were heavily slanted which prevented many doors from opening or closing properly. It was not clean even after the "cleaning crew" was done. There was a pair of pants and a shirt hanging in the bathroom/laundry room despite its description of "no personal items around". There were a ton of wasps. Flavio hired someone to fix the problem it didn't help. He offered a partial refund; which we have yet to receive. However, Flavio was also very responsive and had a helpful attitude.

IDEAL FLAT - GREAT HOST

Great location and Flavio is very informative
We really enjoyed living like a local.
Great location and close to a supermarket.
4.6
The property is great. The location is wonderful, and very quiet.
I would give this property 5 stars, were it not for the fact that the living room is separated from the owner's living quarters by a thin door. Behind another thin door he has his washing machine and dryer. This means, that I could hear his conversations with his children and/or a visitor word for word, and the laundry whirring in the washer and dryer. It also made me feel that I had no privacy: if I could hear every little cough from the owner's side, then he could hear me. I did not like that.
The owner is friendly and helpful. The bedrooms are quiet and clean. If you don't mind the privacy issue, it is actually a great place.

Great location!
This was exactly as described. Nice quiet neighborhood, but close to all!
