Geke’s house was an oasis of peace and coziness in the middle of the city. It was great to come back to the house at the end of a wet day and reset by the fire with a cup of tea and watching the boats go by. It was an ideal way to experience Amsterdam, very calm and beautiful space, with grocery stores, plenty of restaurants, park, and bike rental nearby. A bit of caution about the grate walkway in front of the boat...my bike key slipped through my hands and into the water below...I was able to recover it, but be careful taking small things in and out pockets in that space ;) I am grateful to have had this experience, and wouldn’t hesitate to come back again.
