Great location and clean, however no airconditioner in the room and elevator is tiny.
Pros:

Location and clean bedding. We also liked that there was a safe in the room.

Cons:

No airconditioner in the room which was too small; no fridge; elevator was uncomfortably small for 2 people without luggage; we had a twin room with supposedly 2 twin beds, however the twin beds were side by side with no space in between - like a king size bed.

Pros:

Location near metro and tram lines. Quite street. Near nice places to eat, markets and shops.
Lobby/ downstairs space was warm and welcoming. Nice coffee water and snacks plus space to relax after a day exploring.

Cons:

Lift is tiny but in okd building hard to fit.
Stairs like most in Amsterdam are more like going up and down a ladder.
