Exceptional stay - extremely friendly and helpful staff!
Pros:

The hotel is very well located and the staff is incredibly nice and helpful. They even offered a cool towel and drink during the heat wave at checkin. The breakfast is wonderful (freshly squeezed juices, pastries, cold cuts & cheese, fruit - you name it!). The room was comfortable (without much day light, but this is Amsterdam city centre - everything is small).

Cons:

Nothing, we loved it.

Even better on our return
Pros:

I wish we could have bicycled but walking got us plenty of targeted restaurants, chocolate shops, museums, the train station and sights. The staff were helpful and friendly, the garden was a delight, the breakfast dining room expansive, and our room had a great canal view. We stayed four nights and chose to come back to this hotel ten days later for our final day of the trip and it was even better.
