This place is a gem for a reason! The apartment is in a perfect location just a block in any given direction from shops, restaurants and the like while still providing a local feel to where you are staying. I arrived by train and although it is only a 5 min walk from Amsterdam Centraal I got a bit turned around. The host called and met me, guided me to the apartment, got me settled in and was on his way! The place was clean, quiet and perfect for my needs. The apartment is a perfect mix of antique furnishings mixed with modern amenities. Your view is of an old church behind the building, that is still in use and you get to hear the choir practice in the evenings if you’re lucky. The building also boasts the most amazing Italian restaurant down below which is a must try! Would stay here again in a heartbeat!
