Riks was very welcoming and friendly. He showed me the place, and told me about the nearby attractions, and gave some advice on what to see and do and which tour vendors to use. The location of his place is absolutely PERFECT, only a few blocks from the Central Station. I walked nearly everywhere, and only ocassionally took the METRO or Tram. Saw most of the major museums and fell in love with the breautiful town of Amsterdam. Sooooo many bikes everywhere, with dedicated bike paths - be careful to stay out of them while walking!

The room was comfy and had everything I needed. The breakfast options were plentiful and delicious. There are many dining options available just a few minutes walk away for lunches, dinners and desserts! I felt like a local staying here, right on the canal in a beautiful canal house. Can't wait to return…

Thanks Riks!
