Wilma is an excellent host. Always thoughtful and considerate. Every little detail is thought out right down to an emergency sewing kit. If you are looking for something away from the centre, but close proximity, and would like to experience Amsterdam more like a local then definitely consider Wilma's place. Her room is beautiful and cozy. I must say that the bed is extremely comfortable which makes all the difference after a long day of sightseeing and walking. I particularly loved sitting on the window seat with the windows open, watching and listening to the neighbourhood. Some of the highlights were: the sun rising across the canal, bird watching ( there is an abundance of song and water birds), cyclists riding to work in the morning, locals cruising the canal in their boats with a picnic spread across the seat as the sun sets again... Wilma's place is not just somewhere to park your bag, it is an experience.
