As this was our first time with "airbnb" we did not quite know what to expect but Maria's home and facilities were well above our expectations. Maria made us feel very welcome straight away and was very helpful in her suggestions and went out of her way to accommodate our schedule. Her manner was very friendly but yet not intrusive.
We thoroughly enjoyed the quiet but very interesting district, and did a lot of walking in the Jordaan area, tried several coffee shops, all individual and exiting in their own way, did a lot of widow shopping in a very relax manner. We loved the area away from the main tourist attractions but near enough to some great shopping streets. Loved all the shabby chic antique shops , the flower shops and their displays, the various restaurants and the friendliness and laid back manners of every one.
