We had a super lovely time meeting Anne and staying in her wonderful apartment. She made us feel extra welcome and cared for. She was much, much more than we have expected of an Airbnb host - very friendly and very welcoming, like we have known her for a long time!
It was our first time in Amsterdam and I'm glad we chose a conveniently located place. It was 1 short ride away from Amsterdam Centraal Station, whether by bus or Uber. There are also bike rentals very near her place.
The apartment itself is quite lovely and cozy, with large windows from the living room overlooking a park. Our room is spacious enough. Like a typical Amsterdam house, the stairs are quite narrow and steep (which we were warned about prior to coming), thus we stored our big luggages (meant for 3 wk-vacation across Europe) in the train station lockers, and just brought backpacks for our 2-night stay.
We definitely recommend the place to anyone planning to visit Amsterdam. We loved the convenience of the apartment's location and the peace and quiet of the neighborhood.
We loved riding bikes around Amsterdam's canals, thanks to Anne's suggestion on where we can rent near her place.
Next time we visit, we hope to stay for a longer time so we can do Anne's local food crawl on a bike and discover more of Amsterdam with her.
