This is a wonderful flat, pretty and full of character, with a great layout. The sitting room is separated from the bedroom by a narrow kitchen. The location is impossible to beat for several reasons: it is walkable to all important sights and is located on THE most chic and gracious canal of all, Keizersgracht. Having stayed at the Hotel de l'Europe before, we can say that this flat is superior for its location and restfulness. Mark is an alert and gracious host, even if he does not give out a mobile phone contact. I mention this because it is a material detail. And highly unorthodox within the Airbnb culture where, in all other cases, my hosts have always been available on whatsapp. No matter: we still recommend this flat very highly and would stay there again ourselves when returning to Amsterdam.
