The apartment was very clean and in a good area. Definitely a great place if you’re visiting Amsterdam and want to be near subways and things to do. It rained everyday we were there so we didn’t get to use the balcony very much but it has a very nice view.
Veerle was a great host. She was communicative and even messaged me a few days before to make sure I knew a good route to the apartment from the airport.
I would recommend this place for sure there are just a few things that weren’t a huge deal but good to know:
- the mattress was really, really soft so my boyfriend and I had trouble sleeping and were really sore even after the first night, but if you don’t mind that then it isn’t a concern and it’s no fault on Veerle’s part, I just wanted to warn anyone who doesn’t mind a very soft mattress.
-it’s on the 4th floor of a walk up, which is standard in Amsterdam, but I didn’t know this going into it so when we were bringing our suitcase up and down the stairs it was a bit of a challenge — mostly bringing them upstairs.
- the listing said the apartment would have basics like soap, shampoo, and conditioner in the shower but it didn’t so we had to go and buy those. If we had known, we would have just packed our own.
