The apartment is nicely accommodating and located about a 20-25min walk into the main areas/attractions such as Anne frank house, joedaan area, etc. The apartment itself doesn’t have a private lock only the main building door has a lock. The host live on the first floor so we didn’t feel unsafe but my 12 year old son loves to watch tv late and would not because he was nervous about staying in the living room alone bc there was no lock on the apartment door. Although the area is quiet and slightly tucked away from tourist areas, this may feel uncomfortable for some travelers. The apartment was clean has all the bathroom amenities you would need for a short stay. It was also very convenient and wonderful to have two bathrooms for4 people. I did notice other reviews had noted they were greeted with coffee and small food items upon check in, unfortunately we weren’t and it would of been nice since we weren’t able to get groceries on our first day of arrival. I believe there was one coffee espresso pod left in the box upon arriving. We did run into a small problem the first night, my friend unfortunately had a mouse get into her Swiss chocolate in the bedroom. I notified the host and they immediately paid for the chocolate and replaced it with some NL chocolate and wine, which was amazing. They also provided a noise making device to hopefully ward off the mouse-which it did, until they were able to seal the hole in the bedroom hopefully after our departure. Another note, the main bedroom door is very noisy. I’m a morning person and would constantly wake up my husband leaving and entering the room as it would make a lot of noise. Additionally the stairs are very narrow and can be a bit difficult if you have bigger luggage getting it upstairs. I understand these are small nuances but I travel a lot and have stayed at many many Airbnb and I appreciated honest reviews bc some things are no issues for some travelers while other issues are big concerns for travelers, everyone has a different comfort level. This is not a bad review for the host as they were great and made every attempt to ensure we were enjoying our stay. They also provided a binder with restaurants and things to do in Amsterdam, which was also very helpful.
