This is a wonderful place to stay. Bas has given a lot of thought on how to make it comfortable for guests and gave an incredibly helpful introduction to his home, to the area and to Amsterdam in general. The flat really has all the comforts of home - well it's more comfortable than my home actually! Super-clean and really easy to stay in. One thing that isn't in the official description is that you have access to the communal garden which is a pleasant place to drink a cup of coffee in the morning. The area isn't the best area but I think that's fairly reflected in the price, but there are no problems as such and it's only a few minutes on the tram or a 10 minute bike ride to more touristy areas. Best single thing for me was the grand piano and Bas even dug out some classical piano music for me to brush up my rusty piano skills :->
