After a 7 day river cruise from Basel to Amsterdam, we wanted to spend a couple of days exploring Amsterdam before heading home. The Blue Stairs was FANTASTIC! Marc & Louise were so nice & welcoming. Marc even carried our luggage up the stairs for us! Breakfast was delivered to us the night before so we could warm it up & eat in our room when we wanted. It was a nice variety of fruit, eggs, cheeses & bread/croissants with fresh OJ & milk. The location is very central. We walked everywhere. They gave us some suggestions on restaurants to eat & Marc organized a taxi for us on day of departure. We stayed on the top floor & the room was very comfortable & quiet. It supplied all the amenities we needed.

Beautiful spacious room. Modern decor with all the amenities (kitchenette, refrigerator, oven, dining table, kitchenware; bathroom wirh tub and shower). Spectacular view of the Canal and bridges. Perfect location in the city center; quiet but close to everything, including many restaurants and shops. Louise and Marc were great hosts. They provided a lovely breakfast daily and they were kind and accommodating. Highly recommend!

Marc and Louise have created a beautiful and peaceful oasis, a private, safe, and cozy place for their guests and have thought of every detail of beauty, quality, comfort and convenience - I can think of nothing they haven’t thought of! The property is in a gorgeous area away from the touristy atmosphere yet close to everything you’d want to visit. A 10 minute tram ride to Amsterdam Centraal station, a 15 minute walk or less to Rijksmuseum wandering the canals. A lovely assortment of fresh breakfast items to choose from in your own studio, brought by fairies while you’re out in the evening who during the day also meticulously clean and restock your room. The view from the room is fabulous. Don’t hesitate to book your stay. I can’t wait to return.

It was a best place to live if you trave to Amsterdam, just few blocks away to everything, the owners are super friendly and helpful, love the views from the window of the apartment. The breakfasts have plenty options,fresh and testy.

everything about the apartment was good, location, breakfast, layout, size.

Very comfortable B&B. Breakfast was stocked for us each evening for the next day. Juice, assorted breads, a couple of eggs, and a plate of fruit. location was perfect to explore the city.

Amazing location! You can tell Marc and Louise have put a lot of love and care into the renovations — updating to add modern amenities while also maintaining the historic charm of the property.

The owners were very welcoming. They gave us some good tips for touring amsterdam. The room was cleaned and prepared every afternoon. Very quiet street, close to Rembrant square.

Nice room with kitchen. Owners bring breakfast the night before and you heat it up when ready.

Excellent use of space in a great location. It was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Mark and Louise were the very best hosts and always available to answer any questions we had. They provided us with a bottle of wine and other goodies upon our arrival and then came in and left breakfast fixings for us at night so we could have breakfast at whatever time worked best for us.
