The station is fairly modern, the artwork is pleasant, I noticed some black and white older paintings on the wall, I'm not sure who they represent but would be interested to find out.
The entrance looks like any other station on the Metro, and there are a small number of ticket machines. I didn't notice any staff around the station to offer assistance.
The station is fairly small, but that isn't a bad thing, there's a single platform for two tracks, the left side is one direction, and the right side is the other, with all three lines serving the same platform. This is great if you do need to change lines, although you will need to be alert and pay attention before boarding your train to check you're getting on the right one.
3* - OK, average station on the Metro, It serves the Nieuwmarkt square in central Amsterdam and is a useful station to change between lines. It is also right next to De Wallen, so would be the station you'd use if heading to the Red Light District or Amsterdam's China Town.
