Great location.
The gym had the essentials.
Comfortable bed.
Not enough air flow in the room. Very stuffy even when temperatures cooled down. We had the portable fan running the entire 2 weeks.

We stayed at the Wittenberg by Cove for 8 nights in a two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment with kitchen facilities, including a washer dryer combo.
The location was very nice – we appreciated how quiet and peaceful it felt while still being conveniently located near restaurants, cafés, museums, and public transportation.
Overall, it was a comfortable stay and a good option for a long visit, particularly if you prefer apartment-style accommodation over a traditional hotel.
Also, a special acknowledgement to the housekeeping super attendant Elvis, who was extremely welcoming upon our arrival and helping us to settle into our apartment.
While the kitchen was convenient for light use, it was not fully equipped with enough dishes and glassware for 4 adults. Also, the pots and pans showed noticeable signs of wear and would benefit from being replaced.

The size and the condition; washer & dryer in the apartment.
Lack of hangers in the bath room and hand towels in the kitchen.

We were set in the room with basement, that we particularly asked not to be placed!!
Our friends, who traveled with us had to move and change their room 3 (Three) times during 6 day stay

The room was a good size with all the basics you need in the kitchen and bath. The room was clean and the staff was helpful. Everything was good, but not exceptional in any way. The area felt safe and was quiet even on King's Day. Access to public transit was reasonably close (5 minute walk to most of the key tram lines and a metro). If you want to go to the zoo or the botanical gardens they are very close.
We traded off price for centrality with this hotel and it did make a difference. You had to walk an additional 10+ minutes to get to the action which did add up over the week we stayed in Amsterdam. Also, we were in the furthest section of the hotel which meant walking through two courtyards every time you went to your room. This was a bit of a pain. Finally, you could also hear the people walking around upstairs.

Beautiful location next to a canal and close to public transportation and also various attractions. Walkable to the center for some people. Staff on hand to answer questions, replace towels, etc.
A little spartan as to the kitchen and beds, for the price paid. Our unit became very hot and no A/C available, but we figured out this was due to solar gain and made sure we kept the windows covered when we were out for the day.
No major complaints, other than the 21% national VAT on lodging and the surprise additional 12% city tax on lodging. The latter was collected upon check-in which we weren’t expecting. The ownership can’t control the tax rates, but ownership or Booking.com should be required to more clearly disclose the additional 12% tax required to be paid upon arrival. After paying all the taxes, this stay was vastly more expensive than our roomier apartment in London (across the street from Buckingham Palace) last summer.

It’s a great location near the University, trams and grocery store.
Description of accommodation not accurate. Description stated a king size bed. Separate page description stated a queen size bed. Bed is actually two twins pushed together. Some of the furniture was stained.

The location, the amenities in the apartment and ability to rent bikes from the Wittenberg was wonderful. The apartment was spacious
The rooms initially weren't very clean - there was hair on the counters and in the shower, the couch had a stain, the tables were sticky. We had to ask 3 times before there was a proper cleaning, but the staff did ultimately rectify the situation. The only other problem is that the kitchen sink was backing up from someone else's apartment. We asked multiple times for someone to come look at it and no one came. We didn't need the sink that much, so it wasn't a big deal, but we didn't feel like asking multiple times was not ideal if we had needed the sink.

Quiet neighborhood, close to public transport facilities
The additional VAT of €359.00 that I had to pay at check-in due to the increase the tax rate by government. This was never communicated to me at all . This is unfair to the budget traveler .

Very clean. Excellent location
Things you need to know before booking:
In the 2 bedroom unit, the only bathroom is located inside one of the bedrooms.
The other bedroom is located upstairs with dangerously steep staircase.
The shower/tub is slippery and there are no grab bars or rubber bath mats

Great location, nice coworking-style space to get some work done, and friendly staff.
Not enough basic supplies for a longer stay - only one-time coffee/tea and limited dishwasher and laundry tablets, plus too few dishes; staff helped with some items on request, but it was still inconvenient.

Beautiful space and great location. The area around the Wittenberg is quiet, but active, with a beautiful little park by the canal nearby. We enjoyed the coworking space as well.
The apartment could have been cleaner as the window sill in the kitchen was dirty, there was still hair in the shower and the bathroom floor was dirty. The biggest issue though was that the kitchen was not at all well-equipped. It is easier to list what was there- one single medium sized pot with lid, one single pan, a cheese grater, a (dull) chef's knife and cooking utensils (wooden spoons, etc). There was nothing to serve food, nothing with which to bake or roast food in the oven (no sheet pans, casseroles, oven mitts, etc). I asked for large and small pots (for pasta and sauce) and a cutting board. I was told by reception that those things were not provided. After some push back they agreed to providing a cutting board, saying that it should already be there. The lack of kitchen equipment made meals for a family of four difficult. Keep in mind, we had a 3 bedroom apartment, so it should be expected that there would be multiple people to cook for. You will need to purchase all the basics, including salt and pepper, cooking oil, paper towels and napkins.
There was a dual washer/dryer, but the dryer did not work. The laundry facilities on site that were advertised were out of service (room was completely empty).
There was routine drainage work scheduled on our side of the building that started around 7am on Saturday morning. By 9 am, we got up to the sound of Gangster's Paradise on the workers' radio.

Place was clean. staff were friendly. Quiet
They lied about the bed. They said it was a King size bed. It measured as a Queen size bed. When we complained they gave us some bullshit about it being a UK king size. Amsterdam is in the EU it should be a standard EU size king. Then they offered to move a cot into the room for an outrageous €55 per night extra. Very unhappy about this. No washing machine in unit.

Loved all of the space and the two beds for the kids. The kitchen was sufficient, the windows were nice and large, the furnishings were comfortable and it is a pretty building. Would love to know more about the history of the place.
The towels are scratchy and there were not a lot of restaurants close that we were interested in. The second bathroom didn’t have a full shower but rather a handheld sprayer.
