Edith was a lovely host for me and my boyfriend in Amsterdam. She met us at the front door and welcomed us into her apartment. She provided a fantastic orientation to Amsterdam with maps and suggestions for where to go and what to do; everything you'd need for your first or even your fifth trip to the city. The room itself was a true Amsterdam experience. What a great view over a canal in a quiet corner. I spent quite a bit of time just looking at life go by outside our window with a coffee in my hand. I have wonderful memories of Amsterdam after staying here.
