We loved staying with Hans + Wendie, this was our first European trip with Amsterdam as our first stop - this location was ideal for walking everywhere! Our goal was to be in the direct city center and also near bus drop off from Schiphol Airport. This location was perfect for that! Steep stairs upon entry as other reviews noted, but we quite enjoyed how authentic of an experience it was. Hans has great recommendations for us, we greatly appreciated his guidance, suggestions, and assistance finding the perfect transfer from airport to room. Would 100% recommend! Great little terrace for coffee in the mornings! Thanks Hans!
