I can not say enough good things, both about the lovely apartment and the gracious host! We have been renting vacation apartments for the last 7 years and I would have to say that Daan has been the best host we have ever had! His expertise about the city, what to do, where to eat etc.. was very much appreciated. The fresh flowers, berries, cookies and breakfast items were such a pleasant surprise, he even went and bought special coffee for the espresso machine!! The apartment is spacious, clean, modern and well located. There is an elevator-so no need to try and climb the skinny staircases that so many other apartments in Amsterdam have. Although there is public transportation close by, we chose to walk to the center of town. It was great to have a tv with english channels and having a washer and dryer came in very handy. Daan helped make Amsterdam one of our favorite cities, and I can not wait to come back for a visit!! Again I highly recommend this apartment and this host. Thanks again Daan!
