We are a family of four from Oregon and thoroughly enjoyed our time in Amsterdam. More importantly, the apartment was well located and perfectly appointed with everything to meet our needs. We rode the bikes everywhere and enjoyed trying to 'be one' with the folks of Amsterdam. The icing on the cake was the boat ride with Ester and Mark. What a fabulous way to see the city from an entirely different perspective. We highly recommend the apartment and the hosts. A perfect stay in every way! Thank you Ester and Mark. The boys will not soon forget the first stop of their first trip to Europe! :-)
