From start to finish, it was perfect. Tessy is lovely. She made us cappuccinos when we arrived, and had maps and notes ready (and a chilled bottle of wine!). With children the same age as ours, the apartment felt like home (but far cleaner, more organized and better designed than ours!). The neighborhood is a very short walk to the busy areas and museums, yet is in a charming quiet neighborhood with markets and quintessential Dutch neighbors. If you are lucky enough to visit Amsterdam, Tessys beautiful apartment and hospitality can not be beat.
