We had the most incredible experience. Our hosts made everything easy and were incredibly receptive to our needs. The room was gorgeous, spotless and there was a welcome book with a few excellent recommendations as well as little welcome goodies. Check in, check out, suitcase storage etc were all seamless. The location is perfect! Overall one of our best experiences using Booking.com

At the guest house, each room has a wardrobe and a flat-screen TV. Every room comes with a private bathroom, and some rooms at Villa360 have a private garden. A flat screen TV, mini bar and tea and coffee making facilities are featured in all rooms.

Everything was just perfect! The location is very close to the center and attractions. The room is on the ground floor and has nice window and exit to the canal (even private banch). Small add-ons are very nice and included: great coffee, waffles, bear. And mainly our host, Fatos. :) She was very welcoming and nice to us. Explained a lot about activities and restorans, helped with arrangements and marked our visit just perfect

WOW just WOW, this is literally the perfect location, the perfect Amsterdam accomodation and the most wonderful hosts. Pub next door that’s been open since 1600’s, Anne Frank house 5min away and basically everything you could ever want to do in Amsterdam is within walking distance in the most beautiful district of Amsterdam, The Jordaan District. 10/10 and I cannot wait to come back as The Blossom House is the only choice when visiting Amsterdam.

The spacious guest house is fitted with a TV. A private entrance leads guests into the guest house, where they can enjoy some wine or champagne and chocolates or cookies. This guest house is non-smoking and soundproof.

It’s such a lovely quirky place to stay. The design is fantastic, real attention to detail and it was sparkly clean. The bikes are great to get around with and there’s lots of cool restaurants and bars around. Karen is a wonderful host, very caring and knowledgeable about the area. It was unfortunately a bit to chilly to sit on the waterfront terrace so we might have to come back for that!

    Great Location! If you are looking for a hostel that is "just" outside the city centre (in a quiet, secluded area) then I would highly recommend this place. You are a stone throw away from Amsterdam Centraal Station across the channel (via a free public ferry).

    A quiet and peaceful place; like a piece of paradise on earth. Isolated from the bustle of the city but only a few minutes by bike from the ferry that takes you to the city centre. Charming and welcoming hosts that have a lot to tell and some pretty good insiders if you ask them. The apartment is clean, spacious and well equipped. The beds are very comfortable. It'll only exist for the next few years, so book now or you'll miss out!

    The property was in a great location. Very near to a Metro station, with quick & easy links to the City Centre. The staff were super friendly and attentive, there was always someone around which made things feel very safe. I felt very safe & link my property was secure in general. The other guests were really friendly & the hostel definitely allowed for people to be both sociable or a bit quieter. Bathroom & kitchen facilities were always clean.

    Frank is a great host, he is very kind. The house is really nice, is in a great location, near to the city center, and is also very quiet. Breakfast is very various and in the morning it's a pleasure having a tee in the kitchen I hope to return soon.

    Great location near the city centre but distanced from the crowds. Great hosts and atmosphere, clean and well decorated quiet room with a private bathroom, a tiny fridge, a kettle, a coffee machine and a toaster so you can have a simple breakfast at home. Feels more like a simple but functional dutch home rather than a hotel or hostel.
