We had a delightful stay in Sander and Kathelijn's home. They were gracious, responsive, and generous. For example, there was an unusual heat wave in Amsterdam for a couple of days. Sanders provided us with a third fan so all bedrooms had one. They also stocked the refrigerator upon our arrival and promptly answered all our questions. Their home is very conveniently located, nicely furnished, very clean and spacious. As others have mentioned, the stairs are typical of canal home (i.e narrow and steep). Their home is just a few houses away from a quiet, lovely canal lined with beautiful homes. At the other end of the street (though it is fairly far away) is a busy square. The only downside is there is some pedestrian street noise at night that can be heard from the two bedrooms facing the street. However, it did not get in the way of the house's numerous charms and the owners' much appreciated attention and generous hospitality.
