My stay at Rick's place was quite a treat in its own. I had requested a pick up from the airport and Emilia was kind enough to do so. The apartment is very cozy and tastefully done. There are art pieces all over and the environment is very warm and welcoming. The apartment is located in the heart of a wonderful park (name concealed) that you can take a walk in after a long day to relax and unwind. The supermarket is hardly 15 minutes away, and the tram station is barely a 10 minutes walk. Traveling to and from the airport is also very easy (hardly 15 minutes or so). Rick and Emilia made sure that there was good breakfast available every morning (self-serve) and they gave me the keys to the place so I could come and go as per my schedule. The bed was super comfortable and the view from the room, splendid for late night panorama photography. Rick was kind enough to show me around on the first day of my visit and chalked out the tram routes for my subsequent travels. He and Emilia even made some dinner on my first night, which was quite lovely. Rick also took me around to meet a few of his great friends and invited me to a concert which was one of the best experiences during my entire trip to Amsterdam! Rick's museum card came in handy too as I was able to visit the museum without having to stand in the queue for a ticket. The kitchen will always have plenty of bread, fruits, juices, and all kinds of tea and coffee for all taste, so the morning hour is really a kick start for the day. The apartment is quite close to the heart of the city but is very quiet and serene, nestled within the park. Rick always made sure that he replied to my messages almost instantly. Altogether, it was a lovely, warm, and cherish-able experience at Sky Room and would recommend this listing to anyone looking for a great time at Amsterdam!
