Matthijs and Francina were wonderful hosts. On our arrival Matthijs gave us an excellent introduction to the area, which couldn't have been better located. Our small room was quiet at all times and yet just around the corner was a canal and a large range of restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and other establishments. We spent many hours there during our three night stay.

The room and bathroom were very clear and our towels were changed daily

Matthijs brought our luggage up to and down from our room. This was most appreciated. He also called a taxi for us upon our departure.

Our breakfasts at a nearby bakery/restaurant were outstanding. On the first day I had enough left over to make a great ham and chesee sandwich. The pastries were largely homemade and delicious. We both enjoyed talking with the staff who all spoke excellent English as one can expect in Amsterdam.

Overall, we had an A+ time in Amsterdam and Matthijs and Francina contributed mightily to this.
