Pros:

Location can not be beat. The building is old but in a very charming "old-Amsterdam" way. Our room was on the top floor and had an incredible view of the main street below.

Cons:

We had no issues, but the stairs are steep so it may be difficult for some to carry their luggage up. There was also trash in the nightstand leftover from the previous stay.
