Perfect for a stay.
Pros:

Fantastic location! Easy check in and it was close to the central train station.

Cons:

Not a gripe but just for awareness, anyone with mobility challenges might not like the property b/c there was not an elevator. Did not bother us in the least but I don't think my elderly parents would have made it up the stairs.

Pros:

The hotel is in a good location and is in a 18th century building directly on the canal.

Cons:

As with all Old Dutch buildings the stairs are very Steep and winding and narrow. Our room was described as being on the first floor although it required 42 narrow steep steps to reach. We had alerted the hotel that getting suitcases up to the room could be a problem and they arranged for someone to carry the suitcases up for us. If that had not been arranged it would have posed an extreme hardship to get up to our room. The room was very sparsely furnished with only one chair and a small warped table. No staff is present at the site, one deals with an avatar on a screen.

Pros:

Great location, check in was easy. Room is big, bed is comfortable.

Cons:

We had the front bottom floor room, was a bit noisy for people coming in and out of the front door. Also the check in monitor was loud in the room when someone was checking in. Otherwise it’s a nice spot to stay and would stay again.

Pros:

The location is awesome. Just outside the downtown location and close to the train station

Cons:

It might be an Amsterdam thing but the hotel is from the 1700 hundreds. The sewage smell from the bathroom was very strong. Also if you are on the top floor be prepared to walk up some serious steps
