Anne is a fantastic, very thoughtful host who really personifies the best of Dutch hospitality. His spotless, incredibly charming turn-of-the-century flat is nicely located very near Vondelpark in a great, walkable neighborhood. Albert Heijn is just steps away, as are Amstelveenseweg/Overtoom high streets with lots great places to dine as well as plenty of transport options, including a large bus and tram hub. Bus direct to the airport in 30 minutes, no transfers.
For the cyclist, all of the interesting parts of the city are easily accessible from this great location via bike (many bike rental shops nearby), Centrum is just the other side of Vondelpark, via a beautiful ride that you will want to do again and again anyway, rain or shine. That Picasso sculpture - it’s an original.
Can’t recommend highly enough.
