Femke's home is exactly that—her HOME. It's not an empty apartment for rent. Every detail was clearly thought out and well-designed for a warm and welcoming stay. The apartment is in a family neighborhood, full of normal, everyday people... not tourists. It is a great example of life in Amsterdam. Be sure to hit the coffee shop 2 blocks down, it's lively and vibrant and a great spot to relax with a strong coffee. I will definitely try to stay at her place again for my next work trip.
