Due to a booking mix up (which the hosts sorted out immediately) my friends and I ended up staying in the 'de Roze studio' which is a small apartment owned by the hosts of Barangay. It is also available to rent. The studio is located in Nieumarkt, which is right in the centre, and it's in a lovely old canal... more

Barangay b&b has the best location; only 5 minutes from the train station and right next to a street where you can find great shops and restaurants, the major museums are all at walking distance. But the street where Barangay is located is rather quiet, so you have no problem sleeping at night. I had some trouble making the booking,... more

We'll never forget this place. My GF and I felt at home here. We stayed one night and felt the companionship of our hosts as they made us comfortable. Have stayed in Amsterdam at several other places, all were good, this was superlative. We stayed in the pation room downstairs and enjoyed it. Lovely touched to the rooms. We had... more

This was the fourth visit to Dam, and this time we took some friends. First time at Barangay, and its like finding a hidden gem. We had the whole top floor, which was super clean, bright, very spacious, with some nice personal touches. I slept like a baby, and the breakfast was fab. Great location to station really close by,... more

The bed and breakfast was very clean, comfortable and quiet. We especially liked the decor in our room. Our host was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions about places to go during the day and clubbing during the evening. The breakfast was very good and was served in our room. Overall, a great stay and we would go back... more

Perfect location--quiet, but within very easy walking distance of the main train station, even with luggage. The rooms are clean, cozy, well-decorated (if somewhat eccentric!), breakfasts are super, and they have a super house cat that adopts all of the guests as its own new best friends. Wimmo and Godwin are great hosts! They really enjoy having guests and make... more

We stayed in the Barangay Bed & Breakfast for 3 nights in May 2009. We loved it there, it was a perfect base from which to explore Amsterdam. It is right beside Central Station where you can catch trains and trams to bring you to anything you want to see. The B&B is clean and very homely. Wimmo and Godwin... more

On the Barangay Web site, the photo gallery features numerous pictures of the property's "living room." I discovered that this living room is actually the personal space of the owners, not a space for guests to use, when I walked into the room in the afternoon and awoke the owner from his nap. The owner yelled at me for entering... more

We rented an apartment around the corner from the Barangay B & B. We arrived in Amsterdam early in the morning and they gladly let us in and allowed us to store all of our stuff for the day at the B & B. The apartment was around the corner and definitely on a busier street. The B & B... more
