Maaike has a beautifully decorated apartment in the heart of oud.west, a trending and upcoming neighborhood with great bars and many opportunities to enjoy the real Amsterdam way of life - a little away from the beaten track of the tourist. However, it just takes a few minutes walking to dive into the vibrant life of Amsterdam city.
A charming friend of Maaike greeted us at the door, explained everything and even gave us useful advice which bars to head into.
Maaike even left us a bottle of wine and some dessert as a very warm welcome.
I totally recommend anyone staying with Maaike.
