We had a perfect stay at Matthijs & Francina's loft room. We were reminded that Amsterdam's housing is mostly vertical. Thank goodness Francina offered to carry this old gal's luggage up the winding stairs and Matthijs carried it down!
Their place is in the city center and an easy walk from Central Station. There are abundant food & cocktail options in the neighborhood. We loved our daily walk along the canal for breakfast. Our hosts gave us breakfast vouchers for each day at the "Last Crumb"....delicious!
For us, this "airbnb" was great for recovering from our overseas jet-lag and preparing for an 8 day bike and barge trip out of Amsterdam.
