I appreciated both the general location and how Erik immediately dealt with things that needed attention in the apartment, from the heating to a brief short circuit. These issues are to be expected in any city and it’s the reaction of the host that makes the difference to the guest’s experience. In this case I had a fine stay thanks to the hosts’ attentiveness.
It would have been nice to be able to leave bags at the apartment the day I left but it's reasonable given that there is no room on the guest level to store luggage. Guests should be prepared to leave their luggage at Centraal Station for which we pay per 24 hour periods.
