Chilled and in a perfect location.
Pros:

Very cool location five minutes from the centre, brilliant bar and terrace, comfortable beds and lovely staff. Nice decor, fab bitterballen. Quiet and chilled.

Cons:

It was great - a couple of tiny changes would make it even better : heated towel rail, mirror outside of the bathroom and a fridge with real milk and cold water at the coffee station. But that is being really picky!

Prima verblijf!
Pros:

De accommodatie ligt aan het water, wat een pluspunt is! Vanaf Amsterdam Centraal ben je ook snel met de bus bij de accomodatie. Het personeel is vriendelijk en je kan lekker ontbijten bij de accomodatie.

Unexpected Amsterdam
Pros:

Lovely, helpful staff- mostly young enthusiasts! Great location next to the Maritime Museum. Historic past
Tasty food and home brew. Quiet at night with green views. Cute little tea room on each floor. Good bathroom. Look for the top of the lift! Free postcards!

Cons:

Rooms quite small (as was the slow lift!) With an annoying whine if door not quite closed- rather sticky!

Very comfortable stay
Pros:

It is a lovely property and fairly well connected by public transport. It is a little away (20 min walk) from most tourist spots but you need that getaway after the hustle and bustle. The staff are lovely too

Cons:

Nothing except check-in is at 3 pm which means you have to stay out until then if you have a morning flight but then they store your luggage

It was a good base to explore the city.
Pros:

It was easy to get to from the station. Breakfast was good. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Cons:

It was noisy at night. Tea and coffee making facilities in each room would be better.
