I had a fantastic stay with Manuel. The location could not be any better as it is located on a market street and within walking distance of downtown. There are also several neat bars and restaurants located just blocks away from the apartment. Manuel was very helpful with providing recommendations and tips during my stay in Amsterdam. I saw that some guests have mentioned the noise from the market, but I did not have any problems with it at all (and I slept with the window open every night). I would highly recommend staying with Manuel if you're looking for a place in Amsterdam!
