Well...what can I say? We (my boyfriend and I) had a simply amazing stay with Gabriella and John. We stayed for three days, from the 29 December to the 1 Jan 2016.

Both of them made us feel like more than guests, we felt like a part of the family! We were absolutely spoiled with wonderful breakfasts and fantastic conversations. The cats, Mila and Ivana, added a welcoming vibe to the whole house.

About the room: The room itself is large with a comfortable (I slept like a baby!) bed. We had plenty of space for our two large suitcases, and there was plenty of extra closet space provided.

About the apartment: There were a few real standouts here. The swings were incredibly comfortable, perfect to curl up and read a book or watch Amsterdam bike outside. The kitchen was large and lovely, with plenty of extra food, tea and anything else we needed. There was an amazing bath, which I took advantage of, to relax in.

About our hosts: I felt sad when we had to leave Amsterdam, as I really enjoyed getting to know our hosts. They are so lovely, spoiled us rotten and provided many hours of conversation. They even invited us to their New Years Party! Now, my partner and I aren't the partying types so we really enjoyed a wonderful dinner in with great company.

Overall, this property exceeded my expectations. The only draw back: I felt so comfortable, I didn't really feel like spending too much time touring around Amsterdam.

I cannot recommend this apartment enough. Thank you to Gabriella and John for a wonderful holiday that we will never forget.
