This was our best Airbnb experience to date, and we’ve stayed in quite a few! Nienke was very considerate and thoughtful before our arrival about arranging for us to get the key and have someone show us the unit even when she was out of town. The apartment itself is a *dream* - so spacious, stylish, welcoming, well-designed, and tidy! Nienke has included many touches that show her thoughtfulness - leaving umbrellas for us in case of rain, a few welcome treats, fresh flowers, ample towels and toiletries, and many brochures about local tourist attractions. The unit has plenty of amenities - large dining room table and separate dining room (with a piano!), large bed with soft linens and pillows, closet and shelf space for us in the bedroom and bathroom, washer/dryer, a beautiful and fully stocked kitchen, and a comfy living room with TV and coffee table to relax at the end of the day. The unit has lots of natural light, and both the bedroom and dining room open onto a private back courtyard with tables and benches for relaxing when the weather cooperates. We even had a friendly neighborhood kitty cat come say hi in the back garden while we stayed over! The unit is an easy walk to a corner market, coffee shops, restaurants, and an easy walk or tram ride into the center of the city. Nienke was also very quick to respond to questions while we were staying over, and flexible about our check out time, which was greatly appreciated. We actually considered extending our time in Amsterdam because of how much we loved our experience! Would 100% stay here again if it’s available next time we come to Amsterdam.
