The address of the B&B is:
B&B 1680 Oudezijds Achterburgwal 144 1012 DV Amsterdam The Netherlands Directions from Schiphol Airport: Fastest and cheapest as well: take a train to Amsterdam Central Station (they will leave every 10 minutes), from the Central Station it is only a few minutes walk (see small map for walking directions).
It is also possible to get to the B&B by car, but parking is very expensive, so we advise to park the car in a P&R facility or a parking closer to us (parking centrum Oosterdok):
Parking Centrum Oosterdok: https://www.parkingcentrumoosterdok.nl/english/
Parking Centrum means affordable, fast and secure parking in the heart of Amsterdam. You park at competitive rates in the largest parking downtown. The parking has 1,369 parking spaces and is spacious, safe and clean.
For the first 5 hours of parking, you pay €1 per 12 minutes. After 5 hours (up to 24 hours) you pay a flat rate of €13. If you lose your parking ticket, you pay €25 a day.
The Park and Ride (P+R) parking facilities are located on the outskirts of Amsterdam near the ring A-10. The idea is that you park your car for a low fee of € 6,- per 24 hours, with the free unlimited 24 hours public transport ticket for people of the car (up to 5 people) and you continue your visit using good metro, tram or bus connections with the centre of Amsterdam.
With an additional payment you may purchase 48 and 72 hours public transport tickets. You may park your car at the P+R sit up to the maximum of four days. You should inform the parking service about it, so you will be receiving public transport tickets for all these days. As they are heavily subsidized, you must return your used public transport tickets to the P+R parking service at your departure, when paying your parking fees for the whole stay.
P+R car parks are, open 7 days a week, 24 hours with the exception of the P+R Bos en Lommer(from 7 am to 10 pm). They are all supervised but we do not advise you to leave anything of value in your car because break-in's are common in Amsterdam.
