I contacted Melissa in desperation the day before my trip as my initial accommodation was brutally cancelled less than 24 hours of my arrival in Amsterdam. Within less than 30 minutes I already received an response from Melissa confirming she would be able to take me in!

Everything went so smoothly. Although she couldn't be there, she had given me extremely clear instructions on how to get to the flat, how to collect the key etc. She even left a lovely note and stroopwafels for not being able to welcome us personally. What a great host!

The flat itself was super cute and in an amazing condition situated in a quite neighbourhood with easy transport links to the city centre and the central station. There are a couple of nice cafes around.

I would highly recommend Melissa's flat to anyone who enjoy the wildness of Amsterdam and at the same time need a piece of quietness.
