Amsterdam B&B recommendations?
We’ll be in Amsterdam at the end of May 2020. I’d appreciate any recommendations for a B&B. We don’t mind using public transportation so city center isn’t required, although it’d be nice. We’re not into super fancy, posh, trendy places. We like comfortable, en suite, quiet, and a good, healthy breakfast. We’re in our 60s and not into night life. In other places we’ve stayed in B&Bs where our hosts gave us advice and tips on what to see.
We’d like to stay under €225 per night.

I don't know about B&Bs. I just picked a 2-star hotel in my one visit to Amsterdam. I'm posting just to agree about not staying in the most central area around the Dam or the train station or RLD.
It's a lot nicer out in the canal rings, Leidseplein, Vondelpark areas. But still close enough in to be convenient for walkability most places.

By the way, AbbyAdams here's a dedicated B&B site: beware in Amsterdam though: many illegal AirBnB properties also advertise as "B&Bs" to dodge shortstay letting regulations.

Motel One Waterlooplein has a lovely organic buffet breakfast, nice rooms, a bar area, and is about 3-4 mins walk from a tram stop, 5 mins from the metro, and 10 mins to edge of old town/red light district. It's a bargain by Amsterdam standards and will be half of what you've set aside per night. Its not a B&B, strictly speaking, more a hotel, but I really liked it.

I've stayed twice at The Neighbor's Magnolia Hotel, once when it was under its original ownership as Hotel Zandbergen and once under the new ownership. I know it says hotel, but it's really a B&B, I think. It fits your price range and is conveniently located a couple tram stops up from Museumplein near Vondelpark. The tram runs right in front. It's a nice residential area and you can get to the Centrum very quickly by tram. I love it there. Problem is they don't book online past March 2020 right now (their online site shows as "no availability" for all months after that), but if you call or email they will book out farther. (A work colleague did so last summer).

Several years ago, we loved staying at the Hotel Residence le Coin, which is in a great, central location.
The rooms are large and include kitchenettes.
The hotel offers a breakfast buffet for an additional fee. I don't know what their rates are now, though.

They're on booking.com too but better to book directly with them. I hope they still have rooms for your dates.
