Staying at Erik and Mary Jo's is great for the young backpacker or even traveling family. Upon our arrival Erik and Mary Jo both came to greet us and welcome us to their place and the area. Sometimes AirBnb hosts don't take the time to get to know their guests and this was really refreshing. All our needs were met and we felt very welcomed to their place. They have fresh fruit to share and had chilled water ready for us once we got in. They even checked up on us halfway through our first day to make sure things were going well. Definitely will stay here again if we ever revisit Amsterdam.
