We have stayed at Robert’s apartment many times. He is an excellent host and always makes us feel welcome and at home. He very thoughtfully leaves some supplies in the fridge so you can make eggs or a sandwich, tea and coffee, fruit and granola. The kitchen is well-stocked with pots and utensils. The location is excellent for exploring the city centre on foot and walking to the museums. You are right on a canal, but it’s a quiet street. There is a small primary school at the back, but we never mind the intermittent sound of small children playing and it is very, very quiet at night. There are excellent restaurants and cafés within a short walk, including good Indonesian and a great bakery (Bakhuys) for your breakfast pastries. The apartment is super clean and cozy.
