A quiet, very clean home, cool in summertime. It's ideal for tourists who want to relax in or explore a different side of Amsterdam (tho the center is easily reachable) and for researchers (the IISG is about 30 min away by bus). There's a grocery store nearby as well as long paths near canals for walking or running along. I stayed here for three weeks, and found Xsjong a conscientious and cheerful host, as well as someone full of kindness. I treasure the times we spoke together and would gladly stay again.
