First Impressions
Walking up to Trendy 2 bedroom accommodation on perfect location on Cornelis Drebbelstraat, you immediately get that “I found something special” feeling. This four-star property sits in Amsterdam’s Oost district, and honestly, the name pretty much tells you everything — it really is trendy, and the location is spot-on. The building has that classic Amsterdam charm but with a modern twist that makes you feel like you’ve stumbled onto something the locals would actually choose for themselves.
The Oost Advantage
Here’s what I love about staying in Amsterdam‘s Oost — you’re close enough to everything that matters, but far enough from the tourist chaos to actually breathe. The couples who stay here seem to get it too, rating the location 8.7 out of 10, which makes total sense when you’re out exploring. You’ve got the Tropenmuseum just a short walk away, and the whole area has this creative energy that feels authentic rather than put-on for visitors. Plus, getting into the city center is actually easier from here than from some of those “central” hotels where you’re fighting crowds just to grab coffee.
The Space Itself
The two-bedroom setup works brilliantly whether you’re traveling with friends, family, or just want extra space to spread out. Each room feels thoughtfully designed rather than just furnished — you know what I mean, where someone actually considered how you’d live in the space rather than just sleep in it. The whole place has this clean, contemporary vibe that photographs well but more importantly, feels comfortable after a long day of walking around the city. There’s enough storage that you can actually unpack, which is rarer than it should be in Amsterdam accommodations.
Living Like a Local
What really sets this place apart is how it lets you experience Amsterdam more like a resident than a tourist. The neighborhood has proper local cafes, not just tourist traps, and you’ll find yourself grabbing groceries at the nearby markets rather than eating every meal out. The apartment setup encourages this kind of slower travel — you can make coffee in the morning without rushing downstairs to a crowded hotel lobby, or come back in the afternoon to regroup before heading out for dinner. It’s that balance between having your own space and still being connected to the city’s rhythm.
Why Guests Love It
The 8.3 overall rating reflects what you actually experience here — solid quality without any pretense. Recent guests consistently mention the location in their reviews, and after staying here, I understand why. You’re positioned perfectly to explore different sides of Amsterdam, from the cultural attractions to the emerging food scene in Oost itself. The property delivers on its promise of being both trendy and practical, which isn’t always easy to pull off. It’s the kind of place where you’ll find yourself planning your next Amsterdam trip before you’ve even checked out, already knowing you’d want to stay here again.
To book a hotel in Amsterdam during King’s Day, visitors plan ahead to balance orange-clad street parties with quiet Jordaan strolls.

What Our Guests Say
If you are ok with long walks and small spaces and do not have much luggage, it is a good choice Brian, the host, was very nice and provided all the info we needed to get in and use the facilities. The apartment was clean and had the minimal requirements, as advertised. The neighborhood is nice, peaceful, with nice places to grab a bite or a coffee. The street the apartment is located on was quite lovely in October, with colorful leaves and beautiful golden light.
The coffee machine and kettle were nice to have around and having shops really close by made it easy to get some tea.
What could be improved: The toilet and bathroom are in separate rooms and the sink next to the toilet is tiny, I could barely wash my hands. No space to hang a towel next to it, so your options are to get out of the toilet with either dirty hands or wet hands. One of the rooms is really small, barely space to move around. It also has only one socket, which is occupied by the small (and rather noisy) fridge. There is a reading lamp next to the bed, but no socket to plug it into.
We luckily had small suitcases, but for anyone who stays longer and has a larger suitcase, getting in the apartment would be a problem because of how narrow the hallway and the staircase are. I understand that this is the situation, but maybe this should be presented in a clearer way in the apartment presentation.
The ”perfect location” label is debatable, as the museums and city center are 45-60 minutes walk or more.
Very good solution Excellent location, out of the noise and the crowd of the city center, but still near enough to allow us to reach the center by public transport in a short time. In the area around the house there is plenty of restaurants, bars, groceries and whatever you need. The apartment is nice and very clean, ideal for short stays. The host is welcoming and super kind, and contacting him is super easy.
What could be improved: Definitely too expensive, but aligned with other housing solutions nearby, during our rental period: everything in Amsterdam is insanely expensive, at least during Summer.

Great rooms and host Really clean and modern. The host was really nice and helpful. Even tho is a bit far from the center it’s close to the Tram, 4 min walking. The location is very quiet
What could be improved: The location, was a bit far from the center, around 30 min with the tram+metro.
The stairs are a bit steep, not easy if you have big luggage
Nice and cozy authentic apartment The location and the design of the apartment was the reason we chose it. We really liked it.
The ceiling windows were awesome.
What could be improved: It is on the 4th floor of the building with a shared entrance and a very narrow wooden staircase that is both hard to walk on and makes noises.
The owner warned us in the messages to be mindful of neighbours which made us be super thoughtful of not making any noise (although doors and the floor were making a lot of noise) thus we could not really relax
Myrthe was a great host! Responded very quickly, and was very accommodating to our needs/requests. Check-in instruct The apartment was very clean and well located, great value for money. It is exactly the same as shown in the pictures and within walking distances to various attractions and transport. We could not have asked for a better location.
What could be improved: No dislike about the property, but it was a challenge getting the suitcases up the staircase. It was narrow and steep but achievable.
