Perfect stay.
Pros:

Lovely little hotel hotel close to Rembrandtplein en Vijzelgracht. The rooms were cozy and the beds super comfy. The hotel does not have AC but we were advised about this during the booking process, so all good. :) There is a lovely porch out back with a gracht running by. I've never experienced anything as relaxing as this. Perfect spot for a morning coffee or an afternoon brewski.

Cons:

I liked everything.

Cons:

I upgraded the room for an extra 30Euros and ended up with a view of the canal but unable to get in and out of the bed easily. You had to climb up from the bottom of the bed.
Our friend who kept the original room with a street view had a lovely large room.

Lovely
Pros:

Love the hotel - have wanted to stay for a while and could never get a room. Was given a room on the ground floor next to reception and was worried it would be noisy but it was not - an extra door between us. Result a fantastic room with an amazing view of the canal literally outside the window. Staff were very kind and helpful - hopefully I'll get a room next time (the same would be great!)

Cons:

Not a terrible complaint but the light switches had lost their information and it took me a while to work out which was which.
