This was my first visit to Amsterdam and I had a most memorable time. I am sure one of the reason was staying at Romain & Tessa’s house. We didn’t get to meet sadly, but I can imagine they are nice folks who want their guests to enjoy a lovely time.

First, it is a wonderful neighborhood and the listing is well cared for with smart furnishings. How excited I was when I arrived at midnight to see variety of teas, Nespresso machine, water heater and free Dutch waffles! This extra touch does not go unnoticed. I felt at home immediately. If this was my home, I would decorate the same way!

Travelers tip: It is very close to the museum area but about 20 minutes walk south of all the Central attractions. So you know it may not be just a quick walk home to take a rest in middle of the day if that is what you need.

The room and bathroom is small but very livable for Amsterdam standards. Comfortable bed and comforter. R&T did a great job making this place home away from home - wall hook with hangers, bookshelf of travel books, nightstand light, and portable heater.

Last but not least, the travel tips book was such a sweet idea and I used it. Highly recommend staying with Romain & Tessa. Til we meet again!
