Gerrit’s place is well situated near tram stops, restaurants and grocery stores, and Oosterpark just down the road. Gerrit generously invited us to use his piano and guitars, which we did, and provided many helpful tips on travelling to and from Amsterdam city and the local area. His apartment is on the ground floor and is very private with a lovely garden. We enjoyed coming back to Gerrit’s sanctuary after a busy day of touristing. The rooms were clean, amenities all there, plenty of space (there were three of us), and there were even some groceries in the cupboard that we could make use of if needed. We recommend booking a few days (or longer) at Gerrit’s - close enough to the city to visit as many museums as you like, far enough away to re-energise at the end of the day.
