Our stay at Klaartje's place over New Year went very smoothly, despite her being away herself when we arrived. This can be attributed to Klaartje's great communication and the hospitality of her son, Boris, who was willing to help with any questions or requests once we were there.

The room itself is charming and clean and perfect for couples. The general location within Amsterdam is also ideal. The neighbourhood is vibrant with great restaurants and there is a direct connection to the city central nearby (tram 4). Most of the time we still decided to walk into the city.
I can definitely recommend Klaartje's place to anyone looking for a private room!
