We had an amazing few days exploring Amsterdam from Gijs's place. The home is very stylish and arty and the private room is very big (however doesn't have a lock on the door). The shared bathroom is small, but worked well for us (although very stubborn old shower - either scalding or freezing water). Location is amazing if you are only in Amsterdam for a few days and want to explore the city by foot - on the edge of the red light district.
