I really enjoyed my stay at Paul’s place. The location is great - right on a canal in a beautiful part of the old city. It is an easy walk or tram ride to the tourist sites, but also far enough away so that you can experience normal Amsterdam life. The room has been beautifully renovated and has everything i needed for a comfortable stay. Very quiet location. Paul and his family were lovely and gave me some great tips on where to eat locally. Only thing I would say is that there is a skylight above the bed. It has a curtain over it which dims the light, but if you are visiting in summer and you need total darkness to sleep, then maybe pack an eye mask. I had mine from the plane flight which worked well.
