Erik is super friendly host and gave us a lot of information about Amsterdam and the neighbourhood. I highly recommend the north side as it is just 5 min ferry ride away from the center and very reachable 24/7. The great Amsterdam Food Market 5 min walk away and the former industrial area blooming with new interesting places to go, restaurants, cafés, micro breweries etc.
The check in and out was smooth and the room cosy with unique details. I would definitely stay here again. Note: The stairs in old Amsterdam houses are steep and narrow and the room is in upstairs. I loved that, but maybe one with bad knees etc doesn’t find it so fascinating :)
