Petra was always quick to reply to any of our questions before we arrived.

We arrived early on the first day some 6 hours before the official booking in time but Petra went out of her way to have the unit cleaned and ready for us so we could move straight in.

Although we did not see Petra often she was regularly available when we needed her for assistance. She was warm and friendly and clearly did not want to intrude on our privacy.

The unit was accurately portrayed from the pictures and exuded a very homely feel with the books and acutruments around the unit.

It was wonderful to come home after a big day in Amsterdam to a warm homely feeling which we normally don't feel when returning to a hotel room.

The unit was not large but very functional, warm and had an extremely comfortable bed. In fact we are going to seek out and buy the very same mattress as the one in Petra's unit.

There was no kitchen but Petra has made an effort to supply equipment to make a simple breakfast with small fridge, toaster, kettle and microwave as well of course as the crockery and cutlery. A bowl etc was supplied for washing purposes.

The unit was found within a residential block some 6 kilometres from the centre of Amsterdam. Although we walked into the city and back on one particular day the other days we travelled by tram No 1 and No 17. A two day pass eg cost 12.50 euro and allowed you access on trams, buses, trains and ferries.

We enjoyed our time staying with Petra and although the unit had some minor limitations it was cosy, safe and welcoming especially after a long day in Amsterdam and was rented at an attractive price

Thank you Petra
