We stayed at Milen and Joes place when visiting Amsterdam to see in the new year. The location is perfect!! It's a stones throw from everything; Dam Square, the shopping district, Dutch culture and fab restaurants and bars are on their doorstep, yet somehow it's quiet enough to get a good night's sleep. We didn't get to meet Milen and Joes as they were away celebrating new year, however it is clear from their home that they are lovely people with a lovely family, they know their coffee and are proper in to their cooking! Milen's recommendations were great - we would particularly recommend Cafe Brendan where we were invited to celebrate new years with the locals!! They were also very accomodating with check in and out times. In regard to their place, we really cant fault it. We will 100% be back.
