The stay at Frans' bed and breakfast was perfect. We couldn't have asked for a more accommodating host. Breakfast was always waiting when we woke to enjoy in the outside garden. He was able to provide us with some great tips and great locations for viewing the city. The guidebook he provide was carried as if it was a bible. The room was comfortable and beautiful. The location was perfect. It is a short bus ride to Amsterdam Centraal. So you are close enough to the city to experience its quirks, but can quickly retreat back to peace and quiet and enjoy the beautiful garden through your private entry. I will be recommending the bed and breakfast to anyone I know travelling to Holland. Thank you for being such a gracious host, Frans!
