We loved staying in Carolien's place. It really felt like she took pride in the place and making our experience as good as could be. The place itself is great. The room is large with a fridge, great bed and pillows, and a fantastic view of the canal. There is an attached private bathroom and toilet. The area is great as well. I recommend getting bikes while in Amsterdam to fully enjoy the city, but there are close restaurants, bars and attractions on foot as well. We would definitely recommend anyone going to Amsterdam to stay with Carolien.
