Location Location Location! Can't be beaten - such great food and drink options within a hop, skip, or jump away.
Luis (host) and Valentin (facilities manager) were super responsive and friendly throughout the entire stay from booking until check-out. I had an issue with the oven not turning on and contacted the team; the team resolved it within the hour. They also allowed me to drop off luggage before official check-in time and leave luggage past check-out time as my flight was later in the day with no hesitation.
The unit is one up from the ground floor so that adds a layer of privacy vs the ground floor unit that everyone passes before reaching their respective units. The height off the ground floor also provides for a little more natural sunlight which is always welcome but there's still no direct sunlight into the unit, unfortunately. Very quiet building overall as it's tucked away from the busier Amsterdam main street.
Wi-Fi worked expediently and efficiently - had many video conferences with no interruptions.
The kitchen was equipped with all the essentials if you have plans to cook at home. You'd have to pick up some of the basic condiments and spices but the utensils, pots, and pans were aplenty.
The washer and dryer (all in one unit) worked well - just takes a long time to complete a load but there are drop-off launder services nearby for about a $1/kilo.
Everything else in the flat is as advertised - plenty of wardrobe space, open floor plan, nice warm shower, and even Netflix access if you're into lounging on the couch.
If I could change one thing - I would love for a keyless entry for both the main gate entrance and the unit entrance. The buzzer system didn't work so if you were welcoming guests, you had to come down to let them in with key in hand each time - and of course, when they left you had to go down and let them out as well. If there was an exit button that unlocked the door so guests can let themselves out, that'd be wonderful; although I believe this might just be an "added security" layer. Not having a keyless entry meant you had to carry around a set of keys which was not the most ideal.
Thanks for a great stay, I'd definitely consider staying here again given the service, security, and location.
