Hans' apartment is in the perfect location to access the best of Amsterdam. This location is quiet, cozy and feels like actually living in Amsterdam (and not just being a tourist staying in a tourist hotel). From the first moment I climbed the truly Dutch staircase to the apartment on the first floor, to my daily pictures from the small balcony where the sun rises over the neighboring buildings, this apartment just made me happy everyday. After a full day riding around on my bike throughout the city, coming back to a warm shower, a soft bed and a fully equipped kitchen made my stay full and satisfying. The WiFi worked perfectly, and the ceiling fan in the bedroom was just what I needed to fall asleep each evening. This is truly a perfect place for a couple---I wouldn't try to fit any more people in the apartment. It's very cozy, with lots of natural sunlight and really has everything you need for a long term stay. Hans was great with his communications, both prior to and during my stay. Leaving early in the morning back to Schipol airport was made even easier with Hans' departure instructions. I sincerely could not have asked for a better host and I am hoping I can return again in the future.
