Karlijn’s apartment embodies what Airbnb means to me. This was obviously her home where she lives and she offered her home for us to live in. Having all of the amenities available to us made it so nice. Full use of her kitchen, a functioning hairdryer, washing machine (and soap!), WiFi, towels, linens, shower supplies...made staying at her place so easy. The location was great on a very quiet & safe street, yet walkable distance to everywhere we wanted to go. Coffee & pastry shops around either corner. Lots of restaurants to choose from if need be. Karlijn was very communicative and easy to get in touch with. She gave instructions on how to get to her apartment along with a comprehensive list of suggestions for restaurants. Karlijn was a perfect host and I would definitely stay here again if ever I travel to Amsterdam again.
