De Baronie B&b

Inconvenient, Expensive, Smoky & No breakfast!

Truly a heritage building which makes staying here very unique as well as being very close to the heart of Amsterdam.

The owner will only let you in at their convenience and is not very flexible. Our flight was delayed (not our fault) so my wife tried emailing him to announce our late arrival but heard nothing back. When we did get to the B&B it was closed and he told me he could only meet us in 3 hours! 165 Euro for poor service and no breakfast, wow! Room fills up with cigarette smoke from other guests, owner or outside maybe. We are all non-smokers so we did not enjoy that. It’s called a Bed & Breakfast but breakfast turned out to be extra!! What?? First time I’ve heard of that. Save your money, stay at a hotel and enjoy your vacation!

The location was great and I loved getting to see the inside of a well-maintained period canal-side house. Our room was beautifully decorated and the beds were extremely comfortable too.

I'm guessing sound-proofing wasn't a priority in when this house was constructed. We shared a floor with another couple and felt that both sides lost out on privacy (I snore really badly:) ). Also, I had read other reviews on booking.com about how there was no bathroom en suite. This bothered me more than I thought it would, especially since the bathroom was on the floor below where we were staying which wasn't so apparent from the website.

worst place, worst value per money, no comfort, dangerous & small stairs need to help by rope, high price for parking, very poor breakfest, no room cleaning, no towles change, no current cleaning of the shared toilets and bathroom

It is very likely that his high rate (over 8) is due to a "friends combination" , howver, 1 is much too much. The worst place since I begun travel abroad (in 1975).
