Classy Room 17th Century Canal House
About this apartment rental
## Space This private room available for the exclusive use of the guests is just like an apartment without a kitchen; the room is situated on the first floor at the front of the house. This Airbnb-space includes a large bedroom with exposed oak beams and an authentic brick wall. Bathroom: Adjacent to the bedroom is your private bathroom (with shower, sink, mirror and toilet) for the guests only. Please note that there indeed is a shower in the bathroom, but no bath! In the room itself, there is a double bed consisting out of 2 latex mattresses each measuring 90 x 200 cm. Please note that the bed consists out of TWO single mattresses measuring 90 x 200 cm and not out of one double mattress measuring 180 x 200 cm. Heating in the room: There are two large radiators in the room located beneath all of the windows and one can adjust the temperature in the room by turning the temperature-knobs on these radiators. There is also a sitting area with a couch, 2 chairs, cable television, a DVD-player, internet using Wifi as well as internet by the use of a cable. There are lots of books, mostly in the English language on various topics and a computer-desk in the study corner with a chair; a 'laptop friendly workspace' in case you need to get some work done. On the booking platforms this space cannot be called an apartment because the space does not include a kitchen. However, there is a coffee machine and a water kettle to make hot beverages. There is a small refrigerator for your convenience as well as cups, glasses, plates and cutlery. Sheets and towels are 60° Celsius cleaned. The surface area of the space is ± 50 m2. Trains, buses and metro are within 5 min. walking distance. My two cats 'Lucas' and 'Snout' do not enter the guest space on the first floor. This private room is cat-free. ## Access This private room is situated on the first floor at the front of the house and can be reached by entering the house through the main door, going up the stairs to the first floor. There is no elevator. The stairs are steep. See the photograph of the stairs in the picture-portfolio. Elderly people and people with limited ability need to be aware of this. If you want to travel with your child, I have one baby bed available or a small (!) child can sleep on the sofa. Please inform us in advance when you wish to bring an infant or small child with you so we can prepare the room accordingly. ➤ Please note that it is not allowed to arrange photoshoots at this accommodation. ## Interaction Usually I am around, only on some days of the week I work outside of the house; usually on Tuesday-, ~Wednesday- and Friday-afternoon. Normally I am around and always reachable via telephone, sms, WhatsApp and e-mail. Please feel free at all times to knock on my door in case you need assistance. I live in the same building. My quarters are situated on the ground floor, which is the floor above your room and one room on the first floor of the house. Please note that music, noise and the like must be taken into account because of guests staying in the upstairs guest room. During the day I occasionally will have a violin student come for a lesson, so you may hear some violins playing in the background. ## Neighborhood Amsterdam is one of the greatest small cities in the world. From the canals to world-famous museums and historical sights, it is one of the most romantic and beautiful cities in Europe. Cruises on the canals are a popular way to see the city from a different and unique perspective Welcome to the city of tolerance and diversity. It has all the advantages of a big capital: rich culture, thrilling nightlife, international restaurants, good transport - yet quiet in road traffic. In this city, your destination is never far away! In my neighborhood, there are lots of things to see. I live in the oldest part of Amsterdam. There are restaurants, shops, several organic food shops ('Ecoplaza' on Haarlemmerdijk 160-164 and 'Marqt' on Haarlemmerstraat 165) and museums. Two nearby launderettes/laundromats: *The Wash Company (Haarlemmerdijk 32) and *De Haarlemmer (Haarlemmerstraat 45). Two nearby supermarkets: *Albert Heijn: Nieuwe Dijk 182 (really really close) and *Albert Heijn: Haarlemmerdijk 1 Bike Rental: *King Bikes - Bike rental Spuistraat 1C - 1012 SP Amsterdam *MacBike at 'Centraal Station' Stationsplein 5 *Bike City - Bloemgracht TL Amsterdam (near the Anne Frank-house) *Rent A Bikey - Binnen Wieringerstraat 3 - 1013 EA Amsterdam *Rent A Bikey - Haarlemmerplein 33 *Frederic Rent a Bike Brouwersgracht 78 *Yellow Bike | Bike Rental Nieuwezijds Kolk 29 *Black Bikes | Bike Rental Amsterdam Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal 146 *Het Zwarte Fietsenplan Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal 146 *Starbikes Rental De Ruijterkade AC Amsterdam Wine and beer and spirits: Chabrol Haarlemmerstraat 7 Movietheatre 'The Movies' on Haarlemmerdijk 161.

As a capital city, it is very easy to reach from Schiphol Airport and to get around by public transport. Trains, buses and trams will get you to your destination in an efficient way. Even better for short distances and a local experience is of course by bicycle! If you want to travel to other cities and places, normally public transport is also very convenient depending on the location of your plans of course. We will share a handy website with you to plan your route! ## Notes When you are here I will always explain to you the use of the emergency-exit; on the round bedside-table, there is a key to the window next to the bed. This is your most efficient emergency-exit. Put the key in the lock on the window, the lock will open, open the window and you climb/jump on the roof below. It is very easy. I live in the same building. My quarters are situated on the ground floor and one room on the first floor on the rear side of the house. During the day I occasionally will have a violin student come for a lesson, so you may hear some violins playing in the background. It is important for guests to realize that this private room is situated in a house in the very centre of Amsterdam in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the old city, a house more than 400 years old. This means that the levels of sound isolation required for modern buildings cannot be met without eliminating the charm and character of a 17th Century house. In other words: the sound-isolation in this house is not ideal. On the floor above the guest room, live the upstairs neighbors. They are two professionals sharing an apartment. They try to be quiet because they are aware of the fact there is a guest-room below them. ➤ Check-in time: 3 - 10pm ➤ Check-out time: before 11am

This property is just as pictured. Lovely old house with scary OMG steep, narrow, dark, and winding stairs. The stairs (which are mentioned in the rental) and the lock up and get out process are the only negatives. Evert our host was delightful and so helpful. He allowed us a early check in on our arrival day which was much appreciated. Bright and comfortable room. Plenty of extra towels and linens. Fans and screens for windows. Coffee, tea, juice, and biscuits also provided.
We found the neighborhood to be quiet and central to so much. The Central train station a 10 minute walk. Anne Frank House about 20 minutes. Lots of restaurants and quaint bars. You are on the fringes of the Red Light District so expect some interesting “window shopping “ in the area around the rental.

This beautiful room could not have been more perfect for our visit to Amsterdam. Clean, comfortable and filled with old world charm. The location was central to everything and our host went out of his way to make sure we had all we needed. Would absolutely stay again. Thank you Evert!

My wife and I had a terrific stay in Evert’s apartment. In a 3 story building on the second floor of a 400 year old historic property right on the canals close to the train station, Dam Square, and Jordaan. Great restaurants close by. Evert was the perfect host. Had everything you need from shampoo to tour books to adapters for plugs. . Only difficulty would be if someone has issues with stairs. The spiral staircase from the entrance floor is the charm of the building and was really cool, but could pose issues to someone that has issues with stairs. One of the coolest places we have ever stayed.

Our host was considerate and helpful. He went out of his way to accommodate our early arrival and helped us with restaurant recommendations and reservations and even assisted with laundry. The space was generous with lots of natural light and numerous reading lamps made for a comfortable and convenient setting. Violin music made the experience even more charming.

Our time in Amsterdam was short but high in adventure. The property was absolutely great! Yes, the stairs were steep but once you get to the top it’s all worth it. We would definitely stay here again.

Mini holiday in our own city!
We’re a Dutch couple and one of us lives in Amsterdam and the other had lived here for a couple of years as well. We wanted a mini holiday in our own city for my birthday and this house was the perfect place for our weekend! The house is indeed a typical Amsterdam Canal house and the room was exactly as in the pictures. Evert, the owner, is extremely friendly and if you’re lucky you can hear one of his students play the violin.

We stayed on two separate occassions within a month. Loved the old canal house. We had a delightful room on the first floor with a fabulous view over the canal. Very spacious, no cooking facilities but a small refrig and tea and coffee making facilities, also some basic cutlery and crockery. It was very private but our accommodating host Evert ensured that he was there to take our suitcases up and down the single flight of stairs on each arrival and departure. The stair is a beautiful old curved timber stair, steep and narrow but with rails on both sides and caused us no issues. The very large room was tastefully furnished and felt very homely. It was cold outside but two panel heaters ensured the space was warm.
Very comfortable bed, good bathroom.
A short walk to the railway station.
If you are after a "character" stay where you can soak up the atmosphere of Amsterdam I would highly recommend the first floor room in Evert's old canal house.

Excellent location in a Canal House
We enjoyed our stay at the Classy room 17th Century Canal House. We were on the 2nd floor with a wonderful view of the Single Canal. The bed was very comfortable and the room and bathroom very spacious. Evert, our host, was very helpful and ordered a cab for us and carried our luggage up and down the steps for us as there is no elevator and the steps are circular. The canal house was within walking distance of the Anne Frank House, Centraal Station, and several excellent cafes, shops, and restaurants. There is a coffee machine as well as electric kettle, small frig, hair dryer and iron.

Quaint and Comfortable
We loved being able to stay in the heart of Amsterdam, the variety of restaurants nearby and being able to walk to museums and galleries. The stairs are steep and narrow, typical of Dutch houses, it is part of the charm. The room is exceptionally spacious. We were greeted and made feel very welcome.
