Municipality of Beemster Scuba Diving Holidays

I am not sure anywhere in Amsterdam is “off the beaten track”, but the area felt very local with few noticeable sign of tourists.

Very nice room! Friendly staff

Really lovely apartment in a great location. We stayed with a 6 month old baby and 4 year old and it was ideal for quiet. If you had a kid between these ages the stairs might not have been safe but for us it wasn't a problem. Kitchen was helpful and well equipped for basic meals and a nice big fridge and dining table. Really close to bus and tram stops for all the tourist spots and cheap to get to central station / museums etc.

Beautiful Hotel- Gorgeous Lobby- very convenient- lots of great restaurants close by- close to the ,market- Bikes to rent - very helpful staff

We stayed for 3 nights at Hotel 717, and it was absolutely perfect! The staff were so attentive and helpful from the moment I booked til we got in our taxi to come home. I couldn’t fault a thing! The room was stunning, the perfect retreat after a busy day of walking around Amsterdams gorgeous canals and museums. Thank you to all at Hotel 717.

This was simply fantastic. If you choose to dine in on a weekend, reserve it because local restaurants in walking distance closed. During work week, this place is buzzing.

I would actually give this place a 3.5 rating. It was better than ok. The property itself was nicely laid out. It was centrally located (4 minute walk to grocery store), bus stop right out front. Free lockers were very helpful. Our issue had to do with problems in the room. The door to the main bedroom wouldn't close (there was an open shower which couldn't be used due to lack of privacy). The stove top didn’t work. The large window in the living space wouldn't close properly, letting in a draught and rattling throughout the night during a storm. Lastly the main bathroom sink had an extremely slow drain. These are all maintenance issues, which could have been sorted before our arrival.
