This is a typically quaint traditional Amsterdam hotel, with steep stairs (no lift) and canal views (from some rooms).
It's currently under renovation and needs some updating but rooms are having air conditioning fitted and the lobby has had an update which looks much more professional.
The staff are all really lovely and helpful and any issues quickly and efficiently dealt with.
So for any prospective visitors bear in mind that it is a project under way, but at the end of the day, it's a place to sleep when visiting and the rooms are comfortable.
A major plus is the daily FREE 'Happy Hour' (16.00 - 18.00) with beer, wines, coffee and snacks provided.
Would we go back, most certainly!
