This place is spacious and lovely. I slept really well on the bed and my friend enjoyed his sleep in the other bedroom. Its clean, it’s big, and the kitchen is well equipped. It’s sort of perfect.
An 8 min walk to VanGogh and Rijksmuseum, a 10 min walk to city center and Vondelpark, a 2-5 min walk to public transportation, (which I only needed once when I traveled to a town outside of Amsterdam), this place is sort of a steal.
One thing to consider: there are four flights of steep and narrow stairs to climb. If you’re an out-of-shape American (me!), it’ll take some getting used to but unless your struggle with mobility, you shouldn’t let the stairs deter you. It’s a climb but you’ll need to work off the pastries so you know, win-win.
Also, I’m a private person. I’m always nervous that people will “over-help”. Christiaan was available for questions but he left me alone. He’s a very nice man that knows a lot about the town so I really should’ve bothered him more. Lol
Overall, I loved staying here and think most would agree that this place is pretty much as perfect as you can get.
