We stayed at Marlon's over Christmas (2nd time in Amsterdam). We had clear instructions throughout, excellent communication before during and after our stay. Marlon was a gracious host and really helpful, she provided a number of recommendations and that were brilliant. If you choose to stay we would suggest Mezzave (just round the corner) for the best sandwiches in town!!
The location is excellent, right next to a large market with tonnes of fresh produce (fish, veg, meat, bread) and other stalls as well. We felt safe throughtout and loved the location as it didn't feel too touristy but was close enough to the centre on walking distance to give access to lots of the different museums, experiences, tours, and restaurants.
Thank you again Marlon for letting us stay!
