Clean and comfortable studio room and bathroom - and the door system worked! No bathmat, which meant I had to use one of the 2 guest bath towels. Otherwise, a good hairdryer, good shower and and plenty of hot water.

The Kerkstraat Residence is well situated in Amsterdam and there are easy links to wherever you may want to go, or you can always walk. I stayed in room 1 and it was well laid out and I didn't find the road outside an issue. I did fins a few points that coudl be improved. The advert said that the room had tea making facilities but the cup supplied would only be suitable for coffee and didn't have any spoons. I bought a mug and left it there so you may be lucky to have that one. The main lights in the bathroom section didn't work hence I was reliant on the mirror lights which was far from ideal for the shower. Further to this in the shower the big head was completely blocked, probably limescales or similar, hence the small head was the only option. There was also one of the spotlights above the wardrobe not working and only one bulb in the main light installed. This left the main part of the room a bit dark really. Overall I'd stay there again but I wish the owner would undertake more maintenance on the room.

First of all can we say we were a bit hesitant about staying due to the previous reviews. So we saw NO bed bugs , the bedding was clean , toilet and sink both worked. The room would benefit from a deep clean and a lick of paint but apart from that everything was fine. We would not stay again due to the stairs as a we are in our late 50s and they are quite steep. The position of the accommodation is great everything within walking distance

Terrible experience. The apartment was filthy and unfit for purpose – stained bedding, blocked sink, broken toilet and shower, bed bug bites, and no mattress protectors. Curtains fell down, half the lights didn’t work, and dirty bedding was stuffed in the wardrobe. We raised concerns before travelling after seeing reviews about bed bugs, but the host refused to cancel. Once there, they ignored our messages and later denied all wrongdoing. We were stuck as it was Pride weekend with no other options available. Avoid this property at all costs – it is not as advertised and completely unacceptable.

It’s a loft room so has lots of narrow steep stairs. Ok with a small bag but tough if your travelling with lots of stuff. That said once you have made the climb like any decent hill the view from the top was worth it. Nice room. Clean. Bed very comfortable. Shower is great. All you need really. Great local atmosphere with bars and eateries near by. Would recommend.

Bed Bugs Need to be Externinated

I booked this room late one evening and didn't notice there were some reviews mentioning BED BUGS. I messaged the property asking if they had fixed the problem since the reviews, but didn't get a reply. So I felt suspicious. As soon as I checked in, I looked for signs of bed bugs and found many dead bugs in the corners of the room and under the bed. The carpets were heavily soiled and stained and there were other disrepair issues in the place. I immediately removed my bags from the room, and asked the co-host to cancel my stay. She said she would contact the main host. I waited 20 minutes outside on the street with no response. I used the hotels.com chat to report the situation. Within 30 minutes, the host agreed to cancel and refund my booking. I'm grateful that the host was agreeable to my refund request. Still, it was super inconvenient as I had to find alternative accommodation in the last minute. I suggest the carpets should be removed and the bugs exterminated by a certifed company before this host is allowed to list their property for rental. I cant fully vouch for it, because I didnt stay there. But it is in an excellent location, with easy check in, and nice decor... If only they can fix the bug problem and fix a few of the other broken issues, it would likely be a great stay.

BED BUGS! My partner and I arrived here late in the night and went straight to bed upon arrival as we were exhausted from a full day of traveling. When woke up, we noticed bugs crawling on the bed and bites all over our legs. We took pictures and videos and immediately sent to Expedia, and they contacted the owner of the property. THE OWNER LIED and said he “saw us smoking in the room” therefore he was not going to give us a refund. Let me clarify, my partner and I do not smoke, and have never smoked in our lives. The owner clearly knew he had a bed bug issue on the room and was ready for excuse to not refund us. Even with pictures and videos of the bed bugs crawling on the bed, 1 crawling on our leg, and bite marks on our ankles, we were not refunded. 3 hours of phone calls with Expedia, no resolution. DO NOT STAY HERE IF YOU ARE TRAVELING!

Review of Kerkstraat Residence – Amsterdam We recently stayed at Kerkstraat Residence in Amsterdam and, unfortunately, our experience left much to be desired. The Positives:
 Kerkstraat Residence is centrally located, making it easy to walk to shops, museums, and restaurants. This made our time exploring Amsterdam very enjoyable and convenient. The Negatives: 
The accommodations were disappointing from the moment we arrived. Our room was not prepared upon check-in, a frustrating delay as we had to wait for a housekeeper to clean the space. The innkeepers were unable to provide a clear explanation, other than blaming Expedia (our booking platform), though they did promptly send someone to clean. The initial impression of the property was quite poor. The carpet inside the inn was dirty and unvacuumed, and outside the entrance, we were greeted by a dead plant in a pot—a small detail, but one that set the tone for what followed. The last-minute cleaning job, though appreciated, was rushed and did little to improve the room’s overall presentation, which was modest at best. The reality of the room did not match the online images we had seen when booking. There were multiple maintenance and cleanliness issues, including: Non-working light bulbs (only one bulb functioning in a fixture that should have had three), inadequate bathroom lighting, dirty carpet, even after being vacuumed, no place to hang bath towels, a filthy bed headboard. The space felt more like a hostel.

Great location and authentic feel

The location is beautiful and the apartment is very clean and well styled. The property was a little tricky to locate at first as there is no signage/reception. Be aware that you will need to take your luggage up a very narrow flight of stairs.

Dopo aver atteso le 15:00 per accedere alla camera all arrivo riscaldamento staccato, finestre aperte, polvere e ragnatele ovunque. La camera era davvero sporca, probabilmente le pulizie nell’ ultimo anno non erano mai state fatte, e per ciliegina sulla torta una carta di preservativo sotto il letto, Ho fatto notare il tutto al proprietario che si è presentato senza preavviso alla porta della camera, dopo aver fatto notare il porcile nel pomeriggio ha almeno provato a togliere le ragnatele, la carta del preservativo è rimasta sotto il letto, Che dire una camera davvero sporca, se prenotate per due persone la polvere vi farà molta compagnia

We booked a stay here in March. On arrival we found the property to be dirty and have a bad smell. The carpets are dirty, and the bed headboard was broken and also smelled like the sheets had not been clean. The pillows are also yellow and stained. The owners were contacted but did not reply until several hours later. As the property is not habitable we had to book alternative accommodation. The owner's pictures do not represent the current condition of the property. Avoid staying here. If you look the property listing on other websites (trip advisor) you will see similar complaints about how unhygienic the property is.

Good location, no shower pressure and road works

Good location and very spacious room. Access was easy. However, the shower is a real dribble (not enough water pressure) and there is major road works on the street which are audible from bed. Not only you can hear the noise but the bed also will vibrate in the morning as the excavators are doing work. If they fix the water pressure and the road works get done it's a good location.

We did not receive notification our room was ready until we prompted after 3pm. No toilet paper, so communicated immediately to staff, but no response until next day. Had to ask friend for TP, which was embarrassing. Staff realized we were missing bath mat, additional towels and coffee pods, so sent next day. We are young, but stairs would be difficult for older guests with bags. Should be warning about this in bio. Bags of laundry littered the common hallway for 2 days. Unique space, but not worth the trouble, however neighborhood and location are great!
