Fantastic little hotel. Close to everything you'd need and more. We will definitely be staying here again.
Pros:

We most liked the location. It is close to the station
And the local area is lovely and well stocked with all you would need and a lovely supermarket just two minutes walk away. It was a nice touch to have the blanket in the room and the ear plugs. Although you could hear other people in the building, it didn't disturb you like some buildings in Amsterdam.

Cons:

We would have liked to leave our bags with reception as we didn't need to leave Amsterdam until 2ish, we needed to wait for someone to arrive - In the end we ended up taking the case with us as it was getting on near 11am so just to have the option earlier would have been nice.

Séjour exceptionnel entre amis
Pros:

à 10mn de la gare, dans une rue vivante, emplacement idéal.chambre spacieuse.lit immense.accueil et aide performants(notamment pour monter les bagages au dernier étage)
restaurant délicieux, expérience gastronomique, je recommande cette adresse.
Nous n avons pas utilisé les bons pour le petit déjeuner ,on a préféré aller dans le café d'en face ou ailleurs avec de bonnes viennoiseries ou des crêpes.
Réactifs à nos messages sur place et par booking.

Cons:

la salle de bains est bizarrement conçue, (on ne peut pas mettre les affaires)mais ce n'est pas un vrai problème

Muito boa, mas precisa melhorar a qualidade do ambiente e melhor distribuição do espaço.
Pros:

O formato de hotel B&B é ótimo. Tivemos acesso a café da manhã gratuito nos 2 dias em que estivemos por Amsterdam, além do atendimento da recepção ser excelente. Localização muito boa também. Próximo de pontos de metrô e ônibus, fácil acesso à toda cidade e estação central de trem. Tudo bem limpo também.

Cons:

O quarto é absurdamente pequeno e fechado. A cama é grande demais para o pouco espaço que tem, poderiam aproveitar o espaço de uma melhor maneira. A umidade também é um ponto complexo. O banheiro não tem box e molha por completo, e por ser todo fechado, não seca direito. Tivemos que deixar a janela aberta (no frio de 7° em Amsterdam), porque ficamos preocupados de a umidade acabar passando para nossas roupas.

Amazing stay, would highly recommend.
Pros:

Very nice neighbourhood, vibrant and close to really good vintage shops. Room is very comfortable with heating and nice decor pieces. Bed is also comfortable.

Cons:

Space is quite small and the stairs are very steep, but staff are happy to help with luggage as I stayed on the top floor.

A great hotel find
Pros:

Calisto is very well-located and made for a really comfortable stay. The team were extremely friendly and helpful. The included coffee and pastry breakfast (at Good Beans across the street) was a great way to start the day. And the food and drink in the restaurant were terrific, too.
