Frits was great, accommodated a late checkin, was responsive/communicative.
We traveled with one other couple and it was their first time in Amsterdam, so the canal house experience in such a central location was amazing - lots to do and see within 15-20 min walk .
*things to note*
The Airbnb portion is a double floor apartment at the very top so be careful of the narrow staircases typical of Dutch architecture.
There is no AC like much of Europes older houses but this wasn’t an issue bc the summer weather in Amsterdam was mild and quite pleasant. Also you can always open the large windows on each floor for a nice canal view and breeze (although beware of letting mosquitoes in), you will note some dead mosquitoes on the walls..
The house is older and has character. That said, the top floor shower does leak onto the downstairs bed so pretty much is unusable if you take longer than a few minutes. The first floor shower was fine however so it can be inconvenient for more than 2 people traveling together. The layout of each room was very open too so there is no privacy if someone is using the shower and another is using the vanity/sink. Also very bare/minimum essentials for kitchen but it was ok since we were only in town for a few days.
Altogether, the value and location was great esp for first timers. The minor inconveniences noted were tolerable bc of the people we were traveling with and more suitable for couples. So with anywhere you travel to, if you come with an easygoing, adaptable and open mindset this can be an enjoyable experience :)
