Rick's apartment is a beautifully decorated place just outside of the city center of Amsterdam, and was an absolute pleasure to stay in. Rick himself is a warm and inviting host who has done a wonderful job of creating a relaxing space that truly made me feel like I was able to take a deep breath and slow down. Modern amenities and a beautiful view out the window every morning made waking up and having breakfast before heading out into the world to hit up all of Amsterdam's museums a true pleasure. After spending 10 days in Paris, Rick's hospitality and the vibe of his place were a much welcomed change into a more laid-back and slightly slower way of life without ever feeling stodgy. A true gem, and would recommend a stay at Rick's to any traveler looking for a bit of a respite without sacrificing modernity.
