Malou's place was everything we could've expected and more! The reason we picked her place was because of her beautiful photos on the site and how vividly her apartment was depicted. However, we couldn't have imagined how great it actually was. First and foremost I felt right at home walking into a home with many books especially beautiful editions of Annie Leibovitz and Tom Ford coffee table books. Everything else was more than we could've imagine. Decoration wise 10/10 points. Definitely found inspiration for my next home.

In terms of communication Malou was super responsive despite the fact that she was on vacation herself. Felt horrible about bothering her and despite a little mishap with the door locks her attentiveness and care to our matter was amazing. Thankfully her apartment was an art museum in itself so it didn't feel like time wasted.

Words of advice, it is not too close to city center and it's important to do your research. Being New Yorkers my boyfriend and I decided to walk everything. We averaged an average 9.5 miles walk a day. From the Museumplein we were about 30 mins walking. Again, we enjoyed the walk and are accustomed to it being New Yorkers so it's important to consider it is a bit far from attractions. However, the reason we picked it is because of its close proximity (10-20 mins) via Uber to city center, Ziggo Dome and the Airport which were important for a concert we attended and possibility of running late to airport.

All in all, do give Malou and her beautiful home a chance! We definitely would love to come back and stay here. Thank you for being a wonderful host Malou!
