Great spot for a few days in Amsterdam! The location is perfect - close to tons of restaurants, bars, and shopping at the northern end of the Jordaan and Grachtengordel-West neighborhoods (which includes the Negen Straatjes district).
The room is small, but it’s laid out really well - plenty of room for 2 people and your stuff if you’re not total slobs.
There’s a little kitchenette with a small fridge, microwave, toaster, electric tea kettle and kurig coffee maker. Rinze provides dishes, silverware, knives, a bottle opener, and dishtowels.
The bathroom is super tiny, but totally functional. Towels and hairdryer are provided, but BYO your own washcloth and shampoo/conditioner/etc (there are drug stores very close by if you need to run out and grab stuff). And depending on your make-up routine, you may want to BYO a make-up mirror; the mirror in the bathroom is small and at a bit of an angle, and the lighting isn’t the best. There’s a full length mirror on the back of the entry door (super nice touch!), but the lighting isn’t great for makeup there either.
The bed is amazing. Seriously one of the most comfortable mattresses I’ve ever slept on. Bedding and pillows are provided.
The sliding windows are amazing - you can waive at the boats as they glide by (privacy is nonexistent with the windows open), but it’s charming and the breeze is great. Coots and swans will swim right up - but don’t feed them! Feeding birds human food is generally terrible, but more to the point, the swans are *aggressive* and i imagine they won’t hesitate to bite - better to just enjoy them from a distance than to cause an international incident.
Rinze is a great host - super friendly and responsive!
Overall, an amazing little spot to enjoy all that AMS has to offer!!
