Absolutely wonderful place, not in the touristy centre of Amsterdam but well connected to everything by metro and tram not to mention all the walkable places nearby in De Pijp. The room was really well kitted out with everything you might need including a wonderful coffee machine. Patrick is a wonderful host; you share the apartment with him but he is very respectful of your privacy, while also providing you with invaluable local knowledge as a lifelong Amsterdammer. No hesitations at all to recommend this place!
