GREAT location. My mom and I found the location simply PERFECT-- we were shocked how quiet and calm it was, with the bustle of Amsterdam just a few blocks away! Honestly, you can't beat this location if you're looking for lots of walking and exploring in the city, with a guaranteed quiet restful night of sleep when you return at night exhausted. We slept GREAT, the soap smelled SO good, and the basement level below street level was PERFECT for sleeping in warmer weather-- cool, quiet, and private. The towel rack warmer worked perfectly. Once I called Loes, Ritchie arrived within minutes to give the perfect FAST intro to the apartment with a quick key handover so we could start enjoying Amsterdam right away. We would definitely stay again. TIP: We think this is best for one or two people, and best in warmer months. We can imagine it could be quite chilly and dark in the wintertime due to the nature of the basement level with stairs coming down off the street.
