This is a beautiful house in a great spot in Amsterdam- on a quiet little canal-side street, it's a cosy but reasonably roomy house with everything you need. The main bed was SO COMFORTABLE. The kitchen was great and had everything we needed, shower was very good, Shira even left us some fruit, wine and snacks which was very appreciated.
I didn't actually get to meet Shira unfortunately, but she did the check-in with my friends who were staying with us who said she was absolutely lovely. The check-out was with friends of Shira, but also went smoothly and they seemed very lovely.
Billie the cat was such a friendly housemate and this place really felt like a home while we were there- I can't express how much we enjoyed it. The location is great with trams nearby, less than an hour's walk through beautiful Vondelpark to the centre of the city (or much quicker by bike, which I'd recommend), and a great busy street full of restaurants one street over (I'd really recommend Blauw where we had a very special meal).
I wish we had been here during spring or summer so we could sit out on the beautiful terrace, but we'd love to come back, so hopefully next time!
Thanks for everything, Shira!
