Dorothee's place was wonderful. We didn't have the chance to meet Dorothee as she was away, but a company called Iambnb handled everything for her. They were wonderful, helpful, and communicative. Check in was simple and we were greeted at the apartment with enthusiasm and an introduction to the space. Check out was just as easy.
The apartment itself is beautiful. The kitchen is large and easy to work in. The sitting area is cozy and the back garden is a lovely place to relax after a day of touring the city. The bed is fairly comfortable and good for two people. If someone wanted to sleep on the couch for whatever reason, I'm sure that would be comfortable as well. Everything was tidy.
The location is close to a metro stop and two other tram stops. The Amstel is a few blocks away and a stroll along the canal is a great evening activity. There is a grocery store nearby and several restaurants. You'll want to take the metro or a tram to get to the more populated/touristy areas of the city, but Dorothee's apartment is a nice respite from the more crowded streets of Amsterdam. I highly recommend staying here!
