Alex’s flat is superbly located. It’s very easy to get a tram in to the centre of the city and flat itself is neat, clean and very homey-feeling. Alex made sure we felt very welcome and gave us incredibly useful insider knowledge on the area. He recommended the best transport, restaurants, night life etc. (We tried a lot of the recommendations and can confirm Alex has very good taste!)
Upon checking out, I actually forgot my passport in the flat (terrible I know). Alex sorted the entire situation completely, calling a locksmith (as he was out of the country) and being incredibly reassuring.
Alex went above and beyond what was ever expected (even consoling a very panicked me on the phone). I cannot sing his praises enough, without him we would have missed out flight home and been stranded.
Alex is an excellent host and just simply an incredibly nice person. His home is lovely and despite the nightmare on the last day, my friend and I had a lovely stay in Amsterdam.
