Jesse's apartment was just as described. It was clean and just what my girlfriend and I needed for our trip to Amsterdam. It is in a perfect location to be able to walk around all of Amsterdam and/or bike. We never got a chance to rent bikes because it was raining during our short stay in Amsterdam. We never got to meet Jesse but he had a family friend let us in and it worked out very easily. The only downside that we had was on us and not Jesse. We didn't think hiking our bags up the 4 flights of stairs would be that bad. But houses in Amsterdam are very narrow so taxes are cheaper. If you have light luggage or backpacks this is an awesome spot. The view from his place is amazing because it is the front of the building on the fourth floor. Besides that we had an amazing time, we would recommend!
