We couldn't have had a better experience in Amsterdam or wirh Hans. His place was amazing! 20 minute walk from the central train station and about the same to all major attractions. There is a quaint little bar right down stairs and a few breakfast and lunch options a stone throw away. Hans has an excellent view of the canal and even a kitchen to cook your own meals. Major grocery chain is 10 minute walk. Hans communication was great and he even made some special accommodations for us. He reached out a few times before we arrived to make us feel like we weren't coming in to Amsterdam blind. He was very affordable and much more equipped than a hotel. Don't hesitate to book wirh Hans.
