Guest Reviews

• laetitia (10/5): -
• Deborah (10/5): Great location and and equally great place to stay if you’re in the city. - Really great location for centraal Station and getting into the heart of Amsterdam. Very clean, contained basement apartment with all your needs met. Bed was very comfortable!! Small fridge was great for getting in small items for breakfast and snacks/drinks. Adrienne and Boudewijn were perfect hosts and left loads of info to help on our trip and navigating around the city.
• Susan (8/5): Comfortable stay outside the city centre - The owners were very helpful; the treats they left for us was a lovely surprise; the cosy apartment was comfortable for our short stay. There were some lovely eateries nearby, which were handy. There bus stop was very handy to get into the centre. The noisy bathroom- toilet and shower were very loud. We could hear a lot of creaking floorboards and noise in the room above us.
• Salvatore (10/5): Lo consiglio. - La posizione calma, tranquilla e ben posizionata. Dei piccoli rumori dello scarico.
• Salvatore (10/5): -
• Marina (10/5): -
• Anastasiya (9/5): - Cozy and comfortable. Everything you need is provided, including nice little touches like tea, coffee, and sweets. The hosts are very welcoming and friendly, always ready to help. It was a bit cold.
• Charleen (10/5): - Sehr nette Gastgeber, sehr gut und liebevoll ausgestattet Sehr hellhörig
• Katie (7/5): - A lovely host checked us in and explained everything we needed. The hosts' guide/information book was also very helpful and the apartment itself has some nice little touches. Everything is very stylish and elegant and it seems a lot of thought has been put into making guests feel comfortable. Very noisy - you can hear every footstep and sound from the main house upstairs, although the property is advertised as sound proof. Not much space to sit or relax. Lighting is a bit dim in the garden room. The bathroom has no ventilation, which makes it very damp and humid after a shower.
• Andrée (10/5): - Great transport links to the city and an easy walk as well. Room was nice and spacious and warm. Host was friendly, great with communication and spoiled us with chocolates, cookies and wine
• Carys (7/5): Lovely cosy room - It was a wonderful little space, very cosy and nice. It was a bit far out and we couldn't turn the heating on and it was freezing.
• Can (10/5): feel at home:) - very clean near to the bus stop and the owners Adrienne & Boudewijn are very friendly and helpful for everything. They made us feel at home and always check on us if we need something.Thanks for their hospitality:)
• Maja Grujić (10/5): Perfect - Perfect place to stay in Amsterdam. Clean, spacious with excellent location. Very kind host.
• d'onofrio (10/5): tutto veramente ottimo! - Posizione della camera eccellente, comoda e ben collegata. I proprietari sono stati estremamente gentili e accoglienti: prima della partenza ci hanno fornito tutte le informazioni necessarie per arrivare e, una volta sul posto, ci hanno riservato un’accoglienza davvero calorosa. Camera e bagno pulitissimi, con ambienti curati e molto accoglienti. La nostra stanza era davvero bellissima e confortevole. Torneremo sicuramente! A presto!
• Sanaz (10/5): - Die Freundlichkeit,Lage, Nachhaltigkeit. Die Sauberkeit 8 Sterne
• Luka (10/5): - Accommodation was great and host was really helpful and responsive!
• Nicolette (10/5): A most wonderful and pleasant “Amsterdam“ experience. - Wonderful hosts. Little details and special attention to quality made it more special. Good size room and shower! Great location.
• Andreas (10/5): Grossartige Zimmer in guter Lage in Amsterdam - Adrienne und Boudewijn sind fantastische Gastgeber. Immer erreichbar, hilfsbereit und freundlich. Die beiden Zimmer (mit einem Korridor getrennt) können einzeln oder zusammen gemietet werden und haben beide ein eigenes Bad. Die Zimmer sind sehr schön eingerichtet und gemütlich. Das Bett ist sehr bequem, die Regendusche wundervoll. Es ist alles da was man braucht. Heizung ist regulierbar je nach Gusto. Die Lage ist sehr gut, direkt an der Bushaltestelle und nur wenige Minuten vom Tram 7 entfernt. Es handelt sich um ein altes Amsterdamer Haus, entsprechend ist es sehr hellhörig. Von der Etage über den Wohnungen hört man jeden Schritt und kann der Kommunikation quasi folgen. Uns hat es nicht gestört, da es kein eigentlicher Lärm war, sondern normale Hausgeräusche. Wen das stört der sollte Oropax mitbringen.
• MurraytheKay (9/5): Nice quiet place to stay just out of the Old Town city center - The owners for excellent communicators and we're there anytime we needed them. The room was quiet and comfortable. It was reasonably easy to navigate using public transport but it was a little out of the way. Good shopping close by as well as several bars and restaurants.
• Fiona (9/5): Gemütlich - Schönes Apartment nichts
• barbara (9/5): heerlijke bed op prachtige locatie - lokatie en comfort in de kamer kun je leef geluiden horen (voor mij niet storend) uit woonverdieping erboven
• Stephan (10/5): -
• Reber (10/5): Amsterdam au calme - Emplacement calme, mais proche des transports publics (tram pour les musées Van Gogh, Ryksmuseum...), bus pour la gare centrale. 20 min à pied de la gare. Décoré avec goût et matériaux nobles. Literie de qualité très confortable. Les propriétaires sont très réactifs et habitent au dessus en cas de souci. Ils sont aussi arrangeants. Nous avons pu arriver plus tôt et laisser nos valises, idem pour le départ. Boîte à clé. RAS
• Mathew (10/5): Good vibes all around - Absolutely charming property in a quite neighbourhood. Plenty of eating options around . Excellent hosts . Nothing to complain about
• Alexis (10/5): Felt like at home in 23 SouS. - Self check-in check out, lovely hosts available if needed Fully equiped room, Very well placed on the map, nice neighborhood.
• Peter (10/5): Exceptional -
• Olesja (9/5): Superb -
• Kollinsky (8/5): Very good - Very helpful owners living upstairs
• Lim (9/5): Superb -
• David (10/5): Lovely hosts, great space! -
• Thiele (10/5): Exceptional -
• Andrew (10/5): Charming and cozy -- I would stay again! - Super cute apartment! You can see that a lot of love and attention to detail was put into the room. Cozy and comfortable! A little oasis in the city and very quiet for sleeping. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. Nothing to report. Our stay was great!
• Lynn (10/5): Exceptional -
• Lauren (10/5): Impeccably clean and comfortable, convenient and stylish. - Impeccably clean and comfortable, convenient and stylish. Hosts were really helpful providing lots of tips about the area, which was lovely, with great places to eat and drink on the doorstep. The room was really thoughtfully appointed with everything you could need for a comfortable stay.
• Clare (9/5): It was the ideal base for us to explore Amsterdam for a few days. - We liked the fact that we were very close to the centre of town, but not in it. Just a short bus trip away. We were close to several eating places, a great coffee shop and a supermarket for supplies. The room was well equipped for a short stay and our hosts, who lived upstairs, were very friendly and helpful. We wanted to do some laundry, but the property had no facilities, so searched for a nearby laundromat. It was a 10-15 min walk away. The bonus for us is that it was situated in a street that was hosting a big festival that day, so there was plenty to do while we waited for the machines to do their stuff!
• Maarja (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mary (9/5): If you like to enjoy a nice neighborhood with lovely hosts in a busy city I would recommend 23 Sous. - The location is in a quiet neighborhood of Amsterdam rather than a touristy and crowded part of the city. There are a couple of good restaurants close by. The pillows were too firm for me and Adrienne went out of her way to leave me a soft decorative pillow with a couple of pillow cases which was much appreciated. The bed is very comfortable and the shower is very nice. The only thing I didn’t care for was the noise of the sump pump while showering or flushing the toilet.
• Svetlana (9/5): Lovely room, excellent location, generous hosts! - We greatly enjoyed staying at this property – wonderful, clean room with everything you need! There is a coffee machine with excellent quality coffee, also a good selection of teas and instant coffee, a small complementary bottle of a very good wine, some apples – it was very sweet of Adrienne and Boudewijn to provide these extras! :-) Easy to travel around – bus 22 to the central station, tram 7 to Van Gogh & Rijks Museums, very convenient! Or, very enjoyable walk to the city centre – it won’t take you more than 20 min to get to the centre. Many good places to eat nearby, a supermarket is also behind the corner – great location! Hosts are very helpful and responsive – they very quickly replied to all our messages, allowed us to check-in earlier (as we arrived earlier) – although of course it can’t be guaranteed. Wonderful experience, we’ll definitely come back to Amsterdam and hopefully will stay there again :-)
• Oliver (8/5): Very good - was not awaiting a room in the basement loud pumping of water
• Anabela (9/5): Superb - Room very comfortable and spacious. The bathroom is great. There is tea and coffee available, and we we were received with a bottle of wine and fruit. There are tram and bus stations near that allowed us to go to the main atractions. There are several options for the breakfast (we enjoyed a lot the Spirits). mini bar was not ver cold.
• Esther (10/5): Exceptional -
• Paula (10/5): Perfect accommodation if you prefer to be just outside the centre, bus stop 2 mins walk with the journey taking only 6 m - Beautiful property, lovely and clean with restaurants very close by.
• Theodoros (8/5): Very good -
• Karin (8/5): Thank you. We’ve enjoyed delicious meals on your recommendations - Attractive. Clean. Good location. On good bus routes. Great local cafes recommended by hosts. For us the pillows were a little thick and firm.
• Stephanie (10/5): Excellent location and wonderful, helpful hosts - Room was lovely, spacious and clean. Hosts were on hand if we needed them and very helpful. We arrived early and we were allowed to leave our bags whilst we went out exploring which was great. location was fabulous with lovely places to eat and drink nearby. We like to sleep with the window open and it could get a little noisy and smelly if passers by decided to sit on the bench out side the window smoking. this is obviously out of the hosts control and we could of shut the windows
• Richard (8/5): Nice comfortable apartment close to transport. - It was clean, comfortable and quiet. close to transport to all parts of the city either by bus or tram. Grocery shop and restaurants close by. Communication with the owners was very good.
• Beuccia (8/5): Very good -
• Claire (8/5): Very good - Great location - near the centre but also in its own very nice neighbourhood.
• Deborah (10/5): Exceptional -
• Seth (10/5): Exceptional -
• Raspet (10/5): Perfect location and comfy room in Amsterdam - Room is in a great location in Amsterdam, close to public transportation and the center of things, but in a quiet and lovely area next to canals. Room was super comfy and had ample space for our luggage. The hosts are super communicative and helpful!
• Deborah (10/5): Calm and beautiful location - Location was chosen for proximity to Olympic stadium (marathon) but SO glad we didn't go to the centre of Amsterdam. Calm, beautiful area next to a canal with some fantastic places to eat. Travelling by tram was so easy to navigate and great to get to all destinations. Adrienne and Boudewijn were the perfect hosts with some great recommendations for places to eat. We visited the Stedelijk museum of modern art and Rembrandt's house. Both worth a visit. Also managed to fit in a canal cruise which was also very good. Ate at Pension Homeland on Sunday evening - an amazing original officer's mess overlooking the water with the original 1950s fittings and decor! Food was fab too. Couple of tips. People generally eat early - not unusual to eat at 6pm - and it's worth booking to avoid disappointment. Also there are no refreshments inside the Amsterdam Eurostar terminal so eat beforehand or take food with you. We loved every minute of our stay! Love Amsterdam.
• Lineeribeiro (9/5): Superb - Clean, comfortable, nice owners. Would be amazing a big mirror to check the outfit before going out.
• Susan (7/5): Good - Location. Owners are very friendly. Advertised as a B&B bit zero amenities. No breakfast available at a B&B? No gathering place, no lounge. Confined to the one room. When asking for a little ice we were told to go to nearby grocery🙁A very bare bones experience
• Laura (8/5): Very good -
• Ashleigh (9/5): Superb -
• Nneka (10/5): We loved our stay and would definitely come again. - It was very clean and the bed was comfortable. the street was nice and quiet. The host greeted us and provided excellent suggestions for where to eat and places to see during our stay. There were little touches like welcome fruit and drinks upon check in after our busy commute. It would have been helpful to have a bath mat to avoid water on the floor and directions for using the thermostat and ventilation in the bathroom.
• Raluca (10/5): recommend - the location is great and the appartment has everything you need. the noise from the upper part, as you can clearly hear people walking/talking
• Tracy (7/5): Great local neighbourhood vibes. - Nice location in an area that felt more local than touristy. Walkable and with good public transport connections for bus, tram and train. Good comms via WhatsApp ahead of check-in. The accommodation was clean and comfortable with some lovely welcoming touches. Great local recommendations for breakfast (Anna & Max) and lunch (Frank's Smokehouse). Helpful with storing luggage on check-out. Not inexpensive but in line with other Amsterdam accommodation.
• Tracey (9/5): Great spot to explore Amsterdam from -
• Marco (10/5): Exceptional -
• Evgeny (9/5): Superb - Well equipped room, with espresso maker, etc. Comfortable bathroom Pillow selection
• Amy (10/5): 23sous the perfect base for exploring Amsterdam - i cannot find a fault with this property. The hosts are so friendly and helpful - great communication before my arrival, and also an extensive welcome pack with info about the neighbourhood. The rooms are fresh, clean and tastefully renovated to the highest quality - also very practical with everything you could possibly need to stay a few days, or a few weeks (plenty plug sockets, crockery, cutlery, tea coffee etc.) Located 20/25 minute walk from Centraal (towards the de Gooyer windmill) it is in a peaceful part of the city but not too far away from all the sights. and if you’re visiting the city you will be prepared to walk/cycle a lot anyway! there is a supermarket, great cafe and plenty other food options available within 5 minutes walk.
• Thomas (9/5): Superb - A gorgeous little room just a short bus ride away from the city centre. The neighbourhood is quiet, but with some lovely shops and cafes nearby. (We went to the Thai restaurant that's two doors down on our final night and it was FANTASTIC.) Lovely, helpful hosts, lovely clean room, just a lovely place!
• Lindsay (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ali (10/5): Exceptional -
• Frenn (10/5): Exceptional -
• Doris (9/5): Superb - so spacious, well cared for, Adrienne
• Alves (9/5): A comfortable place for a good price in Amsterdam. - The hostess were great! They were super attentive and did everything to make our stay comfortable. We arrived earlier than check-in time, but they offered to collect our bags so we could better enjoy the city. The location was not so near the tourists spots, but we could use the public transportation to get there.
• Maximilien (10/5): Cute family owned b&b - Cute family owned b&b, host welcomed us in person and provided his whatsapp number in case we needed help. A bit pricy
