Location 3 Da Costastraat 78. 1st floor apartment sleeping 5. Not in any of the photos shown in the advert and now I know why. The only positive thing was the space as it was 2 apts with the partition opened. I don't mind basic but I expect cleanliness no matter what the price is. The place stinks of damp... more

We stayed in location 2 for three nights last week. My biggest problem with the apartment we stayed in was the smell. The bedroom itself wasnt too bad but the communal areas smelled rancid. The apartment was very basic. The bed was uncomfortable and the bedding was questionable. The shower was unimpressive and there was no toilet roll. However, the... more

All right, here is my bizarre history with Alexander's Apartments Amsterdam. We stayed in location 3-- 10 of us, which we were told would be good for 2 apartments.

We got to the address and was met by Melanie who showed us around up stairs and gave us all the hot tips on where to go for breakfast, drinks, shopping, etc, she was very helpful... more

Just came back from spending four days in Amsterdam - we booked the Alexanders Apartments because there was a group of us traveling and we wanted to have our own base in the city and something a bit different than a hotel. It cost us approx €750 for three nights from Thursday to Sunday (3 nights). When we arrived on... more
