One is quick to learn that Kim and Daniel are compassionately engaged in the care and comfort of the people they host. From the moment we saw Kim, who had come outside and down the block to rescue us after seeing us from her window exhaustedly searching for their place after a long, overnight flight, smiling her big smile and waving, we immediately felt safe and 'at home'. They have done a nice job of converting an upper space into a separated quarters for travelers in which one has total privacy to come and go, separate of their living space, a private toilet and shower and an accessable deck which overlooks much of the city.
Wonderful too is their location in a quiet part of town but, with an easy, 10 minute walk and 3 minute ferry ride, one is quickly in the hub of the main Amsterdam transit station from where one can embark on trips to just about anywhere in the city.
As if this weren't enough we were served a fresh and filling breakfast EVERY MORNING, were given great travel info, Kim laundered and folded a load of clothes and Daniel drove us to the ferry upon departure.
About the only down side in staying with this lovely couple is that you will be forever spoiled in staying elsewhere!
