We had a great stay in this house. It is located in a quite rural area (from the window you can see horses grazing outside), but it is very easy to reach the Amsterdam city center. The bus stop is ten minutes walking from the house where the frequent bus 32 takes only 15 minutes to the central station. There are lots of good shops around 15 minutes walking from the house, including an Albert Heijn supermarket which is open very late.

The area is very quiet and great for children. There is a park with interesting bird life near the house. We visited in December, but I imagine it will be even nicer in the summertime. The house is just as described in the profile. Note that a cat will be living there with you, which you have to feed during your stay, so allergics might not want to stay here.

Julius let us use his children's toys, which our children were very happy with. There were also two bikes to our disposal, which came in handy. In the summertime it is probably very nice to bike around the area. The house had fast wifi and Netflix on the tv, which we used a lot.

We never met Julius, but he responded promptly to messages and seemed like a very nice guy, even leaving a bottle of wine for us. He also left an 8-page document answering every conceivable question guests could possibly have, including giving some helpful advice on things of interest to children in Amsterdam. In total, I highly recommend this house, especially to families with children.
