Aart's house is in a lovely neighbourhood by the lake, it was frozen at the time but a beautiful sight nonetheless. Aart is friendly and helpful. Our part of the loft was tidy, with everything we need, big spacious balcony and the toilet is bigger than expected from pictures. The loft was spacious. There is a slight walk to the tram station, which would've been a lovely walk if the weather hadn't been as cold as it was when we were there. A 10-15 mins tram ride to the city only so it's great if you don't want the hustle and bustle. Overall, it was a great stay and a great first time to Amsterdam.
P.S. Thank you for the gloves, Aart!
