We had a great stay in Astrid's garden room. It had everything we needed for a short stay, including cups, glasses, plates, kettle etc. to make our own breakfast. The bed and chairs are very comfortable, and we enjoyed sitting in the garden. We stayed during a heat wave, so the electric fan made our stay more comfortable. Astrid made us feel very welcome, with lots of useful information including restaurant recommendations. We always enjoy meeting and chatting with the host, rather than just collecting the keys from a box. This is an ideal, peaceful location - we had a lovely walk along local canals. Supermarket and restaurants are 3-5 minutes walk. Same time to walk to the no 2 tram, which in 15-20 minutes takes you downtown to the Dam and Central Station. About the same time to the main museums and Concertgebouw. We plan to stay here again next time we visit Amsterdam.
