Guest Reviews
- Tanrıkulu (8/5): -
- Pia (8/5): -
- Jowita Ł (10/5): Something else - What an amazing place! We really enjoyed it - it was something else. Even though it’s small, it has everything you need, and the bed is really comfy :)
- Thomas (8/5): -
- Meng-Rong (8/5): Good experience to stay in Amsterdam! - A unique choice for anyone looking to experience a different side of Amsterdam. Perhaps due to its proximity to the water, there was an unpleasant sewage smell that lingered for a while every time the toilet was flushed.
- Christina (10/5): -
- Miry (8/5): -
- Mirjam (10/5): Originele, comfortabele overnachting in amsterdam - Erg leuke, slimme inrichting. De ramen. Vloerverwarming in badkamer. Lokatie!
- Yaser (8/5): - le charme de atypique, la vue et l'environnement, les petites attentions (le mots personnalisé, les boucles Quies, les jeux de société), la chauffage, la propreté. La nuisance sonore. Il certain d'isoler phoniquement un tel local très exposé à l'extérieur serait très difficile, mais sans les boules Qies il est simplement impossible de dormir à cause du bruit des voitures qui passent à côté, ainsi que que du tram et les passants... grosso modo il ne faut pas être très sensible au bruit et il faut bien supporter les boules Qies.
- Christine (10/5): Maravillosa - El diseño Que no había un número claro de cuál era la suite y tuvimos que buscar mucho hasta que por fin deducimos que tenía que ser esa.
- Jan (9/5): Meest unieke locatie waar ik ooit geslapen heb. - Unieke locatie in een oud brugwachtershuisje. Geheel privé. Alle faciliteiten aanwezig. Lekker warm. Heerlijk bed. Niet heel veel ruimte voor bagage. Niet geschikt voor minder valide mensen. In de doucheruimte zou ik nog een spiegel ophangen boven de wastafel. Een klein drempeltje in de douche zou ook handig zijn om te voorkomen dat de hele vloer in de doucheruimte nat wordt.
- Joost (8/5): -
- Anastasiya (5/5): - Сподобався вид з вікна і зручний матрац, чиста постіль Дуже гучно, це більше схоже на будку охоронця, ніж житло))
Нема відчуття безпеки в цьому помешканні, оскільки повз нього проїжджають постійно велосипеди та ходять люди і все це дуже чутно.
Також нам було холодно, кондиціонер наче дув , а наче і не грів
Деякі предмети потрібно вже замінити, оскільки вони зношені і брудні (коврики, жалюзі і тд)
- Daniel (8/5): A special spot at a prime location! - Close proximity to nice bakeries, cafes and restaurants. Went to several markets the day after. Bed was comfortable. It was fine. Met my expectations.
- Allen (10/5): - Was hard to find walked by it a few times not knowing it was a house. Thx it was beautiful
- Ingrid (8/5): -
- Laura (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ivo (8/5): Very good -
- Ellie (10/5): Exceptional - Location, cosy, hand written welcome note, everything we needed. We loved everything!
- Bremer (9/5): Superb -
- Tomas (8/5): Very good - The whole concept of bridge house was great experience, how everything was fitted in such a small space. As well it was stylish. Evenings and mornings with river view were stunning, especially when it was foggy one night. One disadvantage was probably noise level, isolation with outside world could be better.
- Val (9/5): Beautiful and comfy - It was the perfect location, the room was cosy and really nice! I wanted only the option to change sheets and towels, but it was really comfy and beautiful ❤️❤️ I wanted cleaning supplies, for toilet , and cleaning sheets and towels
- Milla (6/5): Good location, compact and unique house - The house was nice and clean. Little, but good for two. Bed was nice, also the surroundings. There was nice pub nearby and good restaurants on the other side of the canal. Jbl-was nice. There was just one trashpin in the toilet/house, or so we though. Noise from the outside was clear, but we knew about this. Earblugs are mandatory! The fridge was too little. I also would have liked that there would have been hair conditioner, now there was only shampoo/body was. Mirror in the bathroom would be nice.
- Jonathan (10/5): A perfect 'tiny house' getaway. A unique experience for those that like something a little different - What a fantastic and unique place to stay in Amsterdam. Room with a view and more, watching the world go by outside on the river and over the bridge. A "tiny house" in every sense, with great packaging. It's not big, but it has everything you'd need. Bed super comfy with a lovely quilt & great pillows - a rarity here I often find.
The perfect, unique pad for a couple of nights away. It might be a little crowded for 2 if you're going to spend much time indoors, but the idea of a place like this is to get out and explore the local surroundings. Plenty of nice places to hang, eat, drink and admire art and the world around along the river within a few minutes walk on either side of the bridge.
As long as you expect the odd characteristics you would consider reasonable for an historic place such as this, and the packaging feat that means it won't have lots of space, but feels remarkably spacious for such a small place, then you'll love it. Not much - as long as you come expecting what this is - a very small space on a noisy intersection. Neither of these were a problem to me, so I had no issues with the accommodation. The only one minor niggle would be the wifi was very slow, but it's not a place to hang around indoors looking at internet
- Karen (5/5): Disappointing - The history of it Noisy location, too small, pricy.
- Constantinos (3/5): Not fit for purpose. A very uncomfortable stay. - Location and view the window Checkin is very late at 4pm and even then it wasn’t ready and we had to wait outside in the rain. This place is so tiny it isn’t fit for purpose. It should only be seen as a novelty accommodation for one night for one person. There is absolutely no room for two people to live. If we were at the property we had to sit on the bed. No wardrobes for clothes, the tiny toilet and shower had drainage problems when showering and flushing toilet and the only source of water for drinking was the tap of the basin next to the toilet. There was barely room to dress. Also because it sits right on the footpath near an intersection and bridge it’s very noisy. A very uncomfortable stay.
- Antony (10/5): Exceptional -
- Christell (8/5): Very good -
- Anastasia (10/5): Exceptional -
- Arnold (8/5): Very good - The bed was very comfortable, with a superb view on top of that.
The split level (no less than three) was nice and with a good design. The curtains did not do anything against the early morning sun.
In the bathroom, after flushing the toilet, there was a lingering sewer smell.
- Anonymous (10/5): Excellent and we’ll definitely try some other bridge houses in the future. - it was warm and cosy and had a very comfortable bed. lovely coffee for the morning too! Perhaps slatted blinds that could open and close.
- Patricia (3/5): Poor -
- Daniel (8/5): Small house with nice arrangement - The staff responded very quickly the street traffic
- Katherine (7/5): VERY compact, more so than we thought from the photos, which didn’t really show how much of the canal view was blocked b - location, novelty, cleanliness, excellent use of very small space, very comfortable bed, good water pressure. the permanently anchored houseboat directly in front of window, people’s bikes parked so to block access to stairs to door. it was just too small for us.
- Nolan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Srikumar (1/5): Stressful - Nothing really except for the location The pictures on the website is deceptive. It is not meant for older people. There is no room to keep your bags, you have to climb up to a loft to sleep and climb down to a dungeon to use the bathroom. The place is meant for back packers who just want a place to sleep with no luggage and don’t care about anything else
