An apartment was absolutely great, comfortable and very clean. Fresh bagels brought by host Frank every morning. Our first floor apartment had a lovely balcony facing the inner garden. The district of Jordan - fabulous, full of galleries, boutiques, all kinds of restaurants..really different atmosphere comparing with the touristic centre. Would sincerely recommend this place. More

Located in a lovely old house in a quiet neighbourhood with shops and cafes just around the corner. We stayed in the room on the first floor - which was really large, clean and comfortable. Frank, the owner, was very friendly and helpful with suggestions and directions. The kitchen is always available and stocked with basics - and Frank brings... More

Immensely enjoyed the Jordaan area and my stay at WestViolet for one week February 2012. Frank Nolen is an amazing, kind person who truly gets the meaning of hospitality. His care and attention to detail and quality is evident, plus he is so helpful while being completely respectful and non-intrusive. I felt completely at ease and at home. His B+B... More

Splendid location in the Jordan district. Spacious room (we stayed at the first floor), well equipped kitchen free to use 24/7. Great host - Frank brought us fresh bakery every morning. Clean, big and cosy rooms. We'll be back! More

I had booked the WestViolet based on two things, that it had good reviews from most travelers specifically comments on how helpful and friendly Frank Nolen is and also the fact that it seemed to be pretty booked up in general (although having only two studios to lease out could mean it can get booked up fairly easily). And as... More

The bed and breakfast is in a fantastic location, not far from the Anne Frank House and a lot of lovely shops and cafes. There is a lively market at the end of the main street on Saturday mornings. The walk from the train station is not too long either - we did it with our hand luggage quite easily.... More

My husband and I visited WestViolet with another couple during the first stop on a multi city roadtrip. There are only 2 rooms, so we had the entire b&b to ourselves. We arrived on an early morning flight and were thrilled to be welcomed in, shown to our room and lead to the kitchen where we had breakfast. We stayed... More

Frank the host provides it all. He strikes the perfect balance of being helpful,friendly and discrete. We had the room downstairs on the street level. I was... More

We loved this B & B! The spacious and lovely second floor apartment had a balcony overlooking a garden, a modern bathroom and the shared kitchen on the floor was like having our own! We were right in the middle of a quaint neighborhood and within walking distance of transit to everything! The local Saturday market was amazing! Thank you... More
