This apartment was perfect. I could not have asked for a better place to stay in the city of Amsterdam. It was very close to everything in the city that you'd want to see. We were able to walk wherever we wanted. That being said, the neighborhood itself was quiet and secluded enough that there was no disturbances if we wanted to rest. It felt very authentic and like we were true locals during our stay. Exactly what we wanted. Karin was very kind and communications were easy. A bonus was her cute kitty and the garden patio. Fun to sit with a bottle of wine and some cheese/bread. Overall, we can't thank you enough Karin! You were an amazing hostess. Can't wait to recommend this apartment to anyone that comes to Amsterdam.
