Myself and my husband love Amsterdam and visited for the first time a few years ago. We thought we'd return and bring our best friends with us. As soon as we contacted Partoe to see if her beautiful apartment was available, we found her so friendly and approachable. Once the apartment was booked, Partoe went to every effort to ensure the check in was as smooth as possible, which it certainly was, and she even offered to make dinner reservations for us before we arrived! Upon arrival, we were greeted with Partoe's flat mate who was also friendly and very accommodating. We were given a tour of the apartment, along with a list of recommended nearby restaurants and restaurants within central Amsterdam, some food they thought we would like, some homemade chocolate and some chilled beers in the fridge - it doesn't get much better than that!
The apartment is located in a quiet neighbourhood and is a 20 min walk / 10 min tram / 5 min Uber into central Amsterdam - we really appreciated how close it was to the centre! The apartment is large enough for 4 / 2 couples without feeling squashed and the living area is a good size for all to socialise and relax together! There is a supermarket in walking vicinity which was also a bonus.
We'd recommend walking into the city from the apartment as there's some great cafes and restaurants en route and it's the best way to see the city in our apartment!
Thank you Partoe, hopefully in the. near future we'll see you again soon?
