We travelled to Amsterdam for a couple of days and used this apartment as a base to explore the city. We arranged to get the keys and were warmly welcomed by Jacob, his family and pet dog. I felt at home immediately. The apartment was clean, warm, spacious enough for our needs and had all the facilities so we could make breakfast etc. The bus stop is right outside and we were minutes from Amsterdam Central so we were able to see a lot of the city easily. The apartment has its own entrance so we could come and go without disturbing anyone. We had a very pleasant stay and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this apartment as a base in Amsterdam.
