This was a dream. Taco and Robert's house is a treasure. So big and comfortable and gezellig, and the location was both convenient and enough off the tourist track to feel quiet. Proximity to the metro was handy, as well.
We rented bikes for the week from a shop a few blocks away, and it was just a ten minute bike ride to Amsterdam Centraal and just about anywhere we wanted to go.
The apartment had everything we needed - comfortable beds, big soft towels, a washer and dryer, two fireplaces, a grand piano and a lovely back terrace.
Taco and Robert are kind and generous hosts. If we lived here, we'd want to stay friends.
You'll never find a home as lovely as this on AirBnB.
