Maarten was very welcoming and invited us into the lovely bright flat upon our arrival. The pictures are very accurate as to the actual experience. The lovely canal can be enjoyed through the large windows. There is lots of room and the bed is very comfortable. All the appliances work well including the convenient washing machine (no dryer - drying rack instead)
The best feature of the flat is its location. It is very convenient to just about anywhere you want to walk. We walked to the Van Gogh museum, Ann Frank House, Vandelpark, Red Light District, and numerous restaurants and shopping. We had a wonderful week in Amsterdam. Thank you Maarten!
