Merle and Joeri were flexible and gracious hosts. They started us off for a great stay with a bottle of wine, lemonade for our three year old and even a pacifier for our yet-to-be-born infant. The place has a great location in quiet Amsterdam Zuid, yet is close to everything. Great yard/terrace and a bench out front too, should you have nice weather. Merle and Joeri were very attentive and wanted to make sure everything worked well in their place. It is their residence, so you will be around some of their belongings (other airbnb places I've stayed in were permanent rentals.) If you are used to a lot of space, beware that this is a small, city apartment of about 65 sq meters.
