Our family enjoyed Pia's basement apartment which was just as described. She kindly greeted us quite early our first morning in Amsterdam to let us settle in early to the basement canal apartment. It is the perfect location in a nice neighborhood and so close to walk to sights or take the tram/bus from the nearby stop.
Even thought the weather was unusually warm, the open windows and fan made the apartment comfortable. It was a good size for our family of three, with a pull out sofa bed that easily fit our teenage daughter. Her room also had a door for privacy when she wanted to sleep in.
Pia even had sunflowers and cookies to welcome us. I will recommend this apartment to friends visiting Amsterdam later this year. Thank you for your kindness and making our family at home in Amsterdam.
