Clean, spacious home in a fantastic location.
Alan's home was a perfect home base for our week-long stay in Amsterdam. Our family of 6 had plenty of space to spread out. Since this is a family home, the kitchen is fully equipped with everything that you need for preparing either just a simple breakfast or full meals. The home is very clean and welcoming. The stairs are steeper than is common in American homes, but are fairly standard for Amsterdam. The beds are comfortable, and there is a small private garden that you can use when the weather is nice. The neighborhood is quiet, but very close to restaurants, attractions and public transportation.
The communication with Alan was consistently good both prior to booking and during our stay. Prior to check-in Alan sent instructions regarding the home and although he and his family were out of town, Alan was available throughout the week to answer any questions that came up. During check-in, Alan provided us with suggestions for local restaurants, maps, and guidebooks. Our flight arrived early in the morning (long before the designated check-in time). We appreciated that Alan allowed us to drop off our luggage in the morning and check-in a bit earlier than he and his family had planned.
Highly recommend this home.
