Quite simply, Vladimir is everything one could hope for in a host: he was super welcoming and friendly, very reliable, and extremely knowledgable about Amsterdam. As for the place itself, the location was perfect for me, since being slightly outside the city centre encouraged me to explore places I might not have; and, more importantly, the place remained immaculately clean throughout my entire stay. It is also worth pointing out that Vladimir’s shower is the best I have ever used. In fact, I would even go as far as to recommend staying here just to use the shower...!
