Location, location, loaction! The apartment is located in the heart of the canals allowing you easy access to the grocery store, shops, restaurants, and all attractions. It’s a bit on the small side however, you are in Amstersam, you don’t need much more! The beds were comfy with plenty of pillows. The bathroom was very nice as well. That shower gave me life after the long flight. The kitchen was stocked with everything you would need to cook and some seasonings. The house rules were simple and respectful. It’s a no smoking home which was great because I can’t stand the smell of smoke and being in Europe, it’s everywhere! Also, everyone in the building was quiet so you’ll have no issue with noise except for people out on the canals late at night.
We were able to check in early which was amazing but we had some trouble communicating with the host to let us into the house since he was meeting us there. We were a bit early but we waited outside for about 45 minutes until we got ahold of someone. No problem, I would just make sure communication is clear. The last critique is the font door. It is an old, heavy wood door which is beautiful but the lock can be tricky. I would practice a bunch!
Overall, we had an amazing stay and would recommend this Airbnb! It’s a centrally located, cozy, historical home that will truly make your stay in Amsterdam special!
