Carla is a great host. She was thoughtful, polite and respectful of our private space and very professional. Her place is absolutely lovely. It is an independent property located in a quiet residential neighbourhood. We stayed there for 3 nights.
Her place was sparkling clean and our room was well furnished with all the necessary amenities. This included towels, wardrobe space, a table, a couple of chairs, a vanity and a coffee & tea station.
Our booking included breakfast that consisted of a variety of bread, cheeses, preserves, egg, fruit & juice.
The bathroom is shared and adjacent to the room and toilet is on the floor below.
Carla has a cute but shy cat which was a plus!
We checked in to Carla's at night and had a little trouble finding her place. We were initially worried but were pleasantly surprised to find friendly locals who helped us find our way and assured us that the locality was completely safe.
There is a direct tram (no.2) that starts just down the lane from Carla's and goes through the museum square all the way up to Amsterdam Central station. This was a huge advantage!
On the whole we really enjoyed our trip to Amsterdam and our stay at Carla's was a highlight! We would highly recommend her place.
