Ramon's apartment was absolutely wonderful. The location is fantastic, a short walk to central Amsterdam but also in a very local neighborhood so you are away from the crowds and have great access to local stores and services. The living room and patio and bathroom look over a lively canal and across the canal there is a continual stream of Amsterdam locals bicycling to and from work, the actual street in front is active but quiet. The two bedrooms are very quiet, one as a private patio. The apartment is actually on three levels and with the two patios affords plenty of space so my 17 yearly daughter and I could be both closed have lots of privacy at the same time. The apartment itself was impeccably clean and phenomenally well equipped. Ramon and his wife Renate met us, helped us in with our luggage, gave us a detailed overview of the apartment and gave us important local resources. There were many clean towels which was really appreciated as there was a major heat wave and we both showered frequently The bathroom was outstanding and there is an additional w.c. The kitchen too was fully equipped and Ramone left us the most complete welcome food supplies I have ever received. I could not imagine a better location and I have visited Amsterdam 8 times over 40 years, and have stayed in hotels, Airbnbs and houses - my next visit to Amsterdam will be with Ramon if his wonderful home is available. I recommend without hesitation and with great enthusiasm.
