We had a lovely time!
Heleen was a great host - she was very welcoming, showed us around the apartment and gave us valuable insider tipps for our stay in Amsterdam. Thanks again for the welcoming presents: cheese, fresh strawberries and the apple juice! Yummie!
The flat is in good shape and perfect for up to 4 people. The two seperated bedrooms and the big living room with kitchen, as well as two small balconies makes the place very spacious.
The apartment is located right next to the Amstel river with public transport, grocery shops, bike rentals, restaurants, parks right around the corner. After a long day in the touristy city center, it was the perfect place to experience the (for us) typical Amsterdam lifestyle in De Pijp.
Furthermore it is a very good headquarter to explore the city. We bought tram tickets and it was very easy to get around from Heleen's apartment.
All in all a very nice experience - we all, me and my girlfriens (25-30) as well as my parents (60+) had a great time!!
Thanks again for all your convenience and for making us feel at home in Amsterdam. I hope we did not leave too big of a mess ;)

Viele Grüße!
