We went about planning our trip in Amsterdam in the following way...
Price...hotels are pretty expensive. Rob an Fang's place is a little more expensive than we spent on other AirBnB's on our trip but much better than hotels.
Location...Central City is great for the party times. If you want to see what the Dutch do in their city life, this is a great location. We walked or took the tram to most places. The Amstel River is right there!
Private Room...Sleep, dress, shower. If you wanted to bring a few things in from a store, you have a small refrigerator. We slept until 9am and didn't get back until after 10pm...
Open windows to the street cool the room...but you can hear most conversations, construction activity and rolling luggage carts of other tourist in the area.
Rob takes the time to make sure you are planning a great tour of the city. We thoroughly enjoyed getting to know their Dutch Lifestyle and flow of the day (don't get that at a hotel).
