It was brilliant, such a lovely studio leading directly onto the canal where you can sit and have morning coffee or go for a swim. Everything was comfortable and clean, small but perfectly formed. Plenty of towels, good mattresses and pillows, some basics like s&p, bin bags, washing-up liquid, coffee pods, tea bags, hand soap, hairdryer, etc. Location was perfect for us. Quiet, chilled out, relaxing mornings with coffee and pastries from the local shops around the corner, then a short tram journey takes you directly to central station and the hustle and bustle of downtown Amsterdam (trams are every few minutes until after midnight). Definitely hope to stay here again (possibly without the kids next time). Hosts were lovely people, very helpful checking everything was ok, with good tips of places to eat, etc. Plus added bonus is use of a 2-person kayak and a little trip down the canal on their small motor boat, which we did, along with the neighbours (also lovely people) and neighbours guests. I'd recommend to anyone who wants a special break away. It really is the best of both worlds at a Room with a Few

I loved the beautiful view of the canal (right out the patio door!), where I was able to bird watch while relaxing. The room was very close to the tram to central station (about a three minute walk). I really like staying in residential neighbourhoods when I travel, it makes one feel more a part of the community. The room was also very close to supermarkets and restaurants. Just remember to bring cash, because the supermarket did not take credit cards!

More shelves or a cabinet in the bathroom would have been nice.

We enjoyed the stay in the Room with the a few in Amsterdam so much! Everything was ok, the appartment is cosy and well equipped with lovely small garden just by the canal (sitting there right by the water with the morning coffee or in the evening with the glass of wine was just amazing). And last but not least - Marjolein and Jan are really great, nice and friendly hosts, they took us for a boat trip and showed us their modern and interesting neighborhood IJburg. Thank you very much, we had a great vacation there.

Beautiful setting looking out over the canal. Very quiet. Has a nice deck and outdoor seating area. Nice shower, comfortable bed. The proximity to public transportation is great. But most of all, the hosts were amazing. They made us dinner twice, did our laundry and offered to take us on a boat tour. Wonderful people!!

The property was private and well setup for a family of 4, and would be even more spacious for a couple. We were able to swim from the private jetty and use the canoe. It was conveniently located for the tram and local shops - it is also close to a lovely marina and restaurants who deliver takeaway. Marjolein and Jan are lovely hosts.

Nothing.

Nice room with a biautifull view on the water channel. Very quiet and relaxing atmosphere. Grocery store, coffee house and tram stop nearby. Small and properly equiped kitchen and patio, spatious room. Very hospitable and helpful owners. Definitely recommend to stay!

Microwave only, no cooking hob. GSM signal is very weak in the neighborhood, but Wi-Fi in the room is sufficient even for smart TV.

Jan is an excellent host, we really enjoyed our stay. Very peaceful, with an excellent view straight on the cannel, close to the city (15 min to Central Station).

It is a pity that you cannot cook, there is only a microwave in the kitchen.

The room was clean and cozy with a very nice view of the water. The neighborhood is peaceful but still had some nice places to go out to eat and was very close to the tram stop. The host was lovely and very helpful in providing recommendations for things to see in the area and how to get there.

The place looks like a little quiet oasis very close to the busy town center. It was definitely one of the best places in which we stayed in Amsterdam, and we went there many times. Marjolein and Jan are very hospitable and friendly. Highly recommended

It was a lovely place and neighborhood. Everything was very close and make the stay easy. The room was very comfortable and very cutly designed. We really enjoyed our stay.
