Staying at Nick’s place felt as if an acquaintance did us a favor and let us use their apartment while they were out of town. No one bothered to pick up for us (trash wasn’t taken out, dishwasher wasn’t emptied, hair trimmings scattered on bathroom counter, etc.). We had no room to put our stuff to settle in for the 5 days we were there, as Nick had things piled up every where - couldn’t even fit a shampoo bottle amongst all of his bathroom items. The bath linens were hard from poor washing and had an odor, along with the bedding. Each nook and cranny of the apartment was packed FULL, liquor bottles on every single surface and just general messiness. We found ourselves avoiding going “home” at all costs during our time in Amsterdam. As I mentioned before, it felt as though someone let us stay at their house, but you add in the hefty price tag and we were severely disappointed.
He did have some really nice plants and the location was in a very central part of Amsterdam. Steep stairs into the apartment but that was fine for us.
