We would recommend anyone to stay here at Gijs' place. We received a warm welcome upon arrival and any questions we had were answered straight away.
The house was beautiful and individual. Gijs had some very interesting art work on display as well as thousands of books in the room. The beds were comfortable and the whole place was clean. It most definitely enhanced our stay in Amsterdam and will not hesitate to book again when we next visit.
The location was perfect, stepping out of the door took us straight into the action. Yet inside the house it was quiet and peaceful despite the busy location. We heard no noise whatsoever, and we had our privacy. We could take a short walk to any of the shops, restaurants and museums, and it was only a 10 minute walk to the train station.
I cannot speak highly enough of Gijs' place. Check it out for yourself!
