Location is ok, about 10 minutes walk into the center. Good restaurants and shops nearby aswell as the large Albert Cyup Market. Bedroom is poor standart, it needs to be cleaned, painted, there are cables running through floor, steps to room are real narrow and steep so don't take suitcase or kids. Shared kitchen was beyond dirty, I had to wash all the utensiles before using (and after). Microwave oven looked like it had so much dirt in it it would blow up if I turned it on. Shared toilet always smelt and shared shower is so small that I ended up getting dried after shower in kitchen (all same room on 4th floor!). Out room had a comfy double bed, windows onto street, 2 cupboard doors that were full of cables, dirt and rubbish, a hanging yellow piece of material that hid an ugly wall, a tv, an ironing board with no cover, etc

From office to apartment we use the telephone trafic and we went to our apartment. Alexander was waiting for us thanks to god. An information about our direct adress should help but no worry. Apartment was great and comfortable for 3 of us. I can say that all our rooms and bath is clear. Our flat has all the things for living in a house for 6 months. I am talking about the oven, microwave, laund thing, dish-machine, coffee machine and the balcony. Hi to Alexander again, great work. First of all Alexander's Apartments should have a website with correct contact information. Next to this, we first went to office which has an adress like Gerard Doustraat. Surprise! Office is empty. Guys are waiting us in another adress which is our flat. We walked from office to the other adress. Find it easily and meet with Alexander. A little information should be good for visitors because we took a cab to the office, the cab went and we had to use feet =) I strongly advise you that, don't put food nearby the floor. You can come up with two little and cool mouses.

Alex was extremely helpful assisting with directions to places that interested us. He was kind enough to photocopy some documents for us, provide some maps and went out of his way to answer our questions. The apartment was very central to everything we wanted to do and see in Amsterdam. The Kuyptmarket was at the end of the street and local cafes and restaurants were really lovely. We just loved our stay and would recommend it to anyone wanting a convenient base in Amsterdam.

Very good locarion for museums and well situated for transport into the city centre The bed was really uncomfortable as it was in fact an ikea sofa bed. I dot think any adult wants to sleep on an uncomfortable sofa for 6 nights when they have a perfectly comfortable bed at home. On arrival I was asked for cash for four nights of my stay as alexander had only used my card for paying for two nights of my room. This left me short of spending money and I had to return to the bank to get more cash which incurred bank charges. If alexander had communicated that he wanted part cash payment in advance it would have saved me from bank charges.

остерегайтесь!! do not recommend! 1) does not warn that the specified address is only office 2) provides that upon payment card (not cash) - take 4% of the amount 3) The tax charge for accommodation is not given when booking 4)-entry in the population revealed that Alexander had left the keys in the office, waiting in the street 40 minutes before he goes for the keys. 5) Apartments in terrible condition, carpet stained, pots on the balcony with cigarette butts, remains of spoiled food in the refrigerator, the door fell off the freezer, a dirty toilet, other people's things in boxes! 6) bedding faded, upon arrival wet towel on the door handle 7) The utensils in the fat 8) Half of lighting does not work 9) in the back room with bags of dirty linen 10) on day 3 revealed a gas leak from the plate apartments are rented family-men 50 years with her daughter, 30 years after leaving the apartment with a credit card was stolen ALEXANDER STAFF AMOUNT OF 100 EURO for allegedly leaving the apartment in a "pork cost" - the words of Alexander, written by him in the mail! He himself had taken apartments at the exit is NOT COME

I have been around europe in many apartments, this one has nothing special. 100€ cash deposit to give on arrival. Smelly bathroom. Personnel enter the apartment without knocking and make sure the customer privacy. And moreover you are treated as a dirty and not clean the apartment.

Alexander is a very good host, he is really hepful. We stayed in 2 different rooms during our 4 night stay. (We stayed in a studio flat). Some of the furniture in the first studio could be renewed yet the second one was already renewed and comfortable. We had a small jakuzi for ourselves in the second flat! The location is perfect, the staff is helpful. I would recommend Alexander's to travelers, who would like an economical stay in Amsterdam. Please note that the the price is reasonable therefore expect the luxury to be accordingly. The couch in the first room (8b, 3rd floor) could have been cleaner (A clean cloth could be placed on the couch and it could be changed often, if it is not possible to get a new one)

Alexander was really nice with us from the first day until our departure. He explained us all the important places to visit and provide us a useful map. The apartment is very confortable and the decoration is great. Thank you, Alexander! If we come back to Amsterdam we will book again your apartment for sure. Take care.

We stayed in this apartment for fifteen minutes and were charged 129 euros for the pleasure. The apartment was disgusting, indeed the reception was a terrible mess. The manager was an overbearing, threatening bully who argued with us when we complained about the so called facilities. We left without ever unpacking with the manager shouting at us as we walked away. This place shouldd be closed down and the owners reported to the police. Don,t stay here!

Location was not bad near to a tram stop. Staff were polite and helpfull. The rooms were not clean enough, smelly and has old amentities, we had to change the appartment with no reason explained, the new apartment was too awfukl to sat very small dirty toilete and bath, we could not used them and left early to better place. Not recommended at all. Find put different hotels or apartments with cheaper price and better accomodation.

I guess the shower and bath tub were good. The manager's statement to me was that these apartments are "clean enough to be safe and dirty enough to be happy." I don't live in a world where dirt = happiness. The apartment was also cluttered with a lot of things that didn't work. The fan blades and cage had detached from the base. I had to fix it. Based on the ease of trolly use in Amsterdam, find somewhere else to stay.

The staff were great, location central and Was able to stay in the apartment with our medium size dog Met all our expectations ... plus extras including the use of a share kitchen, washing machine and dryer ... that was well appreciated. The stairs up to the apartment were steep+++, but the staff helped with the luggage so was not a problem.

Alexanders appartment was clean, nice and of good value. The location is central enough to walk into the city but nice and quiet. Alexander is the best hotel owner I have ever met and I have spent most of my adult life travelling. I can not recommend alexanders apartments enough, I have stayed all over amsterdam and europe, this was by far the best place I have been to.i would be happy to live there full time. Brilliant. I have no negative comments to make :)

I stayed at the Amsterdam Apartments(Da Costastraat 78, corner Kinkerstraat) for 3 nights with other 4 of my friends as we had a bachelor escape. The apartment was big enough to accommodate the 5 of us, had a small kitchen and also a small terrace where we could smoke. There were 2 bathrooms and one separate shower. It was clean, the bed sheets were ok and the overall feeling was warm and nice. I was afraid that we will get into a dirty hole where others before us messed up but I can say it was quite the opposite - a very nice apartment to be together with your friends. It is close to Leidse Plein which is a nice area with terraces and clubs, but a little far to walk (approx 20-30min) from the red-light district. It was a little far to walk from the center(red-light district) - approx 30 min. The price was a little bit too high - 700 eur for 3 nights including taxes and the price for an extra bed.

The beds were clean and comfortable and the whole hotel was a challenge. The location near the canals was authentic. The kettle didn't work nor did the wifi and the vertical stairs without a lift for baggage were an obstacle people need to realize no facilities for a car exist.
