We had a great stay at this apartment and found it to be clean and the host welcoming. Communication was great from start to finish and although we only seen the host at check-in, they made it clear that we could contact them at anytime. The apartment is in a great location to explore the city with easy access to and from the airport, a supermarket, chemist and bars/restaurants nearby. Only downside is that was some music noise from the local restaurant but it didn't impact us much or keep us awake. I understand there's nothing the host could do about this and it's all part of staying in a vibrant city. We greatly appreciated the umbrella's left in the room as Amsterdam seems to specialize in rain showers which appear from no-where then it's dry again in 10 minutes.
