Martin's place is brilliant and bigger than we were expecting. We were able to walk to the centre in 10-15mins which was so easy for exploring. There are lots of fantastic amenities in the neighbourhood and my friend and I had a brilliant time a Amsterdam Roest (just around the corner) on New Years eve.
The flat has it's own private balcony from which we were able to see the fireworks across the city. Martin had been extraordinarily generous and left us with a bottle of champagne to ring in the New Year which we drank with oliebollen from the supermarket downstairs - very convenient to have so close!
The decor is the flat is very stylish and the large windows let in a lot of light into the open plan kitchen/sitting room. We particular like that the tv was hooked up via the ipad to watch Netflix, great for that January 1st hangover day. Martin is a very thoughtful host, there are many guidebooks available, board games, books etc for perusal and it has been an easy journey from reservation to holiday with Martin as our host.
Overall my friend and I have a fantastic time staying in Martin's flat, excellent value and Wittenburg is a great neighbourhood. Still can't get over how perfect the location is. 100% recommendation for Martin and his flat. Thank- you so much :)
