This is the Binnenstad-West neighbourhood in a nutshell.
For daily shopping, you have an Ekoplaza just around the corner and a Jumbo a couple of streets away. A SPAR is a five-minute walk. For schools, the nearest primary is Rooms Katholieke Basisschool De Kring, about a five-minute walk, and the Murmellius Gymnasium secondary school is also within walking distance. The train station is a ten-minute walk, and the park or public garden is on your doorstep. All this falls within the municipality of Alkmaar.

About Gedempte Nieuwesloot 133, Alkmaar
The asking price is 48% above the neighbourhood average of €394,318, but the apartment is also 92% larger than the average home in Binnenstad-West (146 m² vs 76 m²). The price per square metre works out at about €4,007, which is below the neighbourhood average of €5,490 per m². So while the total price is high, you are paying less per square metre for a much larger home in a central location.
The energy label is E. This is a relatively low rating, meaning the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In the neighbourhood, about 39% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for a pre-war apartment in the centre.
The train station is 1.0 km away, which is about a ten-minute walk. That makes it easy to reach other cities without needing a car.
The CBS data records 680 total crimes in the neighbourhood, but without a per-capita figure or context it is hard to judge. Binnenstad-West is a busy city centre with nightlife and tourism, so some noise and petty crime are typical. You may want to visit at different times of day to get a feel for it.
The building was constructed in 1914, so it is over a century old. The energy label E suggests that insulation and heating systems may be dated. The listing does not mention any recent renovations, so you should factor in potential maintenance or upgrades.
Yes, there are several supermarkets nearby. Ekoplaza is 133 m away, Jumbo is 179 m, and SPAR is 390 m. All are within a five-minute walk, making daily shopping very convenient.

At 146 m², this apartment is 92% larger than the average home in Binnenstad-West, which is 76 m². It is also significantly larger than most apartments in Alkmaar. The generous floor area is one of the main selling points.
