Perfect location on a canal! They have done an amazing job restoring this home from the 1600's. Jillis and Cristina were wonderful hosts. Jillis took us on a private canal tour with some great snacks and introduced us to the city. Be sure to check out Frederik just up the street if you want to rent bicycles - fantastic service. We rode all over Amsterdam and had a great time. You can walk to restaurants; try the Italian place that Jillis recommends. Go to Cristina's ham shop - incredible! If you're going to Amsterdam, this should be your first choice for a place to stay.
