The host is extremely welcoming and helpful, having provided lovely touches around the apartment for when we arrived such as a bottle of wine and snacks. We only have lovely things to say with regards to the whole experience. The apartment is as described and has everything you need. Quiet but a walking distance to everywhere you would want to go in Amsterdam. There is a parking space just outside the apartment for €15 if you do visit by car. We had a wonderful time in Amsterdam and a lot of that is thanks to the fact that we felt relaxed about where we were staying. Would definitely recommend.
