Maria is a kind and lovely host! We had an excellent stay at her place. She let us check in 3 hours before the usual check in time and gave us great directions for Amsterdam and even printed maps for us. The room was warm and clean and bigger than we expected. The breakfast was great with different things to try out every morning! Her place is indeed in a top location; almost everything is in walking distance. Would definitely recommend this place and hope to go back for another stay to see more of Amsterdam.
