This is a wonderful apartment! Our host Maarten was incredibly warm, welcoming, and knowledgeable. We were greeted with a lovely bottle of wine on our dining table when we checked in. The location cannot be beat. It's walking distance to many shops, museums, restaurants and the train station, yet it is perfectly quiet after a long day of seeing the sights. The canal view is lovely, and everything in the apartment worked perfectly. It is a charming location to call "home" for a great stay in Amsterdam.
