I'm not the type that splurges on hotels. For me it is a place to crash between expeditions. However the only room they had left was the garden suite and oh was I happy to have gotten it.
It features a whirlpool bathtub. Need I say more? My poor feet and legs were sore from walking all day. Not to mention my shoulders from the backpack.

Get the whirlpool bath. It's goooooood

My husband and I spent two nights at Maes B&B while in Amsterdam. It was like having our own apartment right in the middle of Amsterdam. The location is about a 15 minute walk from the train station and a 5-10 minute walk from the Anne Frank House. Our host, Vlad, was great. He even waited for us when we were late arriving our first day. He gave a wonderful recommendation for dinner as well. The accomidations were very cozy and the room included several travel guides and maps of the city. The breakfast in the morning was delicious as well. I would definitely return!

My wife, two teenage daughters and I had the good fortune to stay 4 nights in an apartment run by the Maes B&B. The street-level "Herenstraat" apartment consists of a living room equipped with 2 single sleeper sofas (for the teenagers), a nice shower room plus sink, a small master bedroom with a very comfy queen-size bed, a small toilet room, and a well-equipped kitchen plus eating area. Internet was included in the rental price and there's a nice television (if you need that sort of thing in Amsterdam!). The cozy neighborhood includes small shops of all kinds and some really good restaurants. One of our favorites was a relatively new tapas bar and restaurant right next door, the Tasca Bellota. We felt like we were within walking distance of everything and we very much enjoyed coming "home" each evening to our apartment. There is a bit of street noise during the day but the neighborhood was quiet at night. One can also hear the comings and goings of those at the B&B upstairs but, again, this really only happens during the day. Vlad, one of the owners and managers of Maes B&B, was a warm and welcoming host and he provided an excellent orientation to the apartment and neighborhood. This included a terrific restaurant recommendation for our first night, the Cafe De Reiger. Overall, the Herenstraat apartment offered by the Maes B&B offers excellent value and a memorable stay.

This B and B is charming and well kept and the garden room in the back of the house is spacious and quiet and comes equipped with a loft bathroom containing a large soaking tub under the roof gables. Ken and Vlad are the perfect hosts, available yet unobtrusive and very helpful with suggestions for restaurants and activities that highlight the city. The house is located in a nice area, not far from Dam Square and the Anne Frank House and easy to get to from the Central Station. The breakfast is quite impressive and the mid level kitchen is available for guest use all day. Like most of Amsterdam, this hotel has steep stairs to reach the higher levels so come prepared!

My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights while in Amsterdam. We stayed in the main house of the B & B. Our room was quite big for European standards with it's own private bathroom. It was very clean and had free wi-fi. The breakfast was excellent and included in the price. Ken and Vlad were very gracious and kind hosts. The location was great, we walked there from Central Station in about 10 minutes. In fact, we were able to walk to all of the attractions we wanted to see. You really get great value by staying here and if we go back, we'd absolutely stay there again.
