It has everything you need!

This apartment is so close to the city center! Do not worry about needing toilet paper or paper towels because Heidi provides everything you need including coffee and milk. I highly recommend this apartment! When my friend fell down and hurt her knee, they even provided a Band-Aid for her. Heidi also baked us some delicious bread! The trip and the flat were both amazing!

Great place and location

The property is right downtown. Super convenient for food and activities around Amsterdam. Place is exactly as described. You do have to go up one flight of stairs - so not handicapped accessible. Otherwise great place.

Lovely time had by all and very welcoming hosts

We were greeted and down round the cosy apartment by one of our hosts Ben. Both Heidi and Ben were most generous and we arrived to a well stocked fridge and larder. The apartment was as described, comfortable and in a really great position to see central Amsterdam by foot. It was amazing to stay in the heart of the city and have a bite into a canal. We’d come back anytime!

Highly recommend!

Heidi's canal suite was clean, quiet and very comfortable. The suite is in an excellent location with easy access/walking distance to all Amsterdam has to offer. Freshly baked muffins, fresh fruit, ham, cheese, coffee, and tea plus countless snacks and nibbles were provided. Heidi recommended several excellent restaurants a short walk from the suite. Heidi and Ben were fabulous hosts... welcoming and very responsive from booking through to our departure.

Great location

This property was a great location in the center of Amsterdam. ~10 min walk to central station and there are multiple metro stops for you to be able to get around if you don’t want to walk. Hedi was super easy to communicate with and made our stay really welcoming. She had lunch meat, bread, banana bread, and other goodies for us upon our arrival.

Great location

We spent 4 nights with our kids in Heidi’s apartment. Location is awesome. On a quiet street but 2 blocks to restaurants, bars and all the action. Well stocked place. 4 adults might feel a bit tight but we did just fine with our young adult boys. We’d stay again. Thanks Heidi.

Great for families!

We really enjoyed our stay at Heidi and Ben's place. Fully stocked, central, comfy beds, safe and quiet street. Heidi was also very helpful with our car situation since we drove; really appreciated! So much more enjoyable and comfortable than renting two hotel rooms for a family of four.

Cozy /Clean /Excellent Hosts/Great Location

The apartment is very clean, cozy and charming. Heidi and Ben are so thoughtful that we had fresh flowers, delicious homemade bread loaf and so many wonderful goodies like bread, milk, juices, coffee etc.!! The location is excellent with a canal view and a small park in the back. We loved our stay and will definitely be back! The photos do not do it justice as the apartment is cuter than the pics.

Simply Outstanding Home Base

Heidi and Bernard’s hospitality is simply the best we’ve experienced in a vacation rental. The apartment is secure and easy to access with a key code lock at the ground level. There’s one steep flight of stairs up to the first-floor apartment—a perfect introduction to the culture of Amsterdam! :)Heidi and Ben live above the rental and are always available if needed. The apartment has two distinct bedrooms with doors. One bedroom includes a comfortable couch that converts into a bed, a single loft bed, and access to a large porch overlooking a lovely playground actively used by local families.The kitchenette had everything we needed to prepare continental breakfasts and light dinners “at home.” The window seat in the living room is a great spot to sip coffee and watch the canal and the bustling community center across the way.The apartment is bright and sunny, with cheerful splashes of teal and orange that create a lively Ikea-inspired vibe. At check-in, we were instantly made to feel at home with a warm greeting, friendly conversation, and a comprehensive tour of the space.To our amazement—and we've stayed in over 20 vacation rentals—our hosts had stocked the apartment with bread, butter, jam, yogurt, milk, juice, soda, tea, coffee, fresh fruit, cereal, instant soup, trail mixes, beer, wine, and freshly baked banana bread.In my opinion, this level of thoughtfulness elevates Heidi and Bernard’s rental beyond a 5-star rating.

Excellent space, excellent hosts

I was so happy that I found this space while planning our stay in Amsterdam and it worked out amazingly. The space is as advertised, with two bedrooms and a sitting area and small kitchen. It is a great location with lots of shops and restaurants within walking distance. What sets this space above the rest is the hosts. Heidi and Ben were responsive and provided wonderful comforts above and beyond what is required. Thank you!

A cut above

We have been traveling through Italy, France, Belgium and the Netherlands for the last 6 weeks, staying at VRBOs the whole time. This place was definitely one of the homiest places we’ve stayed. The footprint is small, but it’s very well thought out, so feels comfortable and offers lots of amenities. Heidi gave us a quick tour with check-in, and the place was stocked with staples and charming welcome treats. The location was excellent and very walkable. Note there’s no oven or stovetop, but there is a microwave & fridge, coffee station etc. The owners live in the apartment above you. We found them to be flexible and helpful. I’d recommend their place without hesitation!

Dream Hosts

This is an absolute gem of a place and Ben/Heidi are dream hosts. The place was in a quieter street very close to Amsterdam city center so walking distance to pretty much all of the main attractions. Ben/Heidi took great care of us and were very communicative during our entire stay. They even had a fully stocked fridge/pantry to make our stay extra special and pleasant. Would highly recommend them and their place to anyone looking for a place in Amsterdam.

Amsterdam Weekend

The apartment is in a brilliant location, close to Amsterdam Central station and a short walk to many attractions, restaurants and bars. There were lots of nice thoughtful touches by the host- the welcome pack- which was enough for breakfast for three mornings. The wine rack was full of 20 bottles and the first was complementary and any others could be used for a small charge. Although close to the city centre the apartment was on a quiet street overlooking one of the many canals. We would highly recommend the apartment.

What a gem!

If you are lucky enough to stay at Heidi’s private canal suite, take it! My husband & I, along with two friends, recently stayed and had a wonderful time. Heidi and Ben are fabulous hosts - they greeted us and gave us a run through of the house, and their thoughtful gestures were much welcomed after a very long travel day (fresh flowers, home-made banana bread, beer, a few groceries etc). This property is as described, and Heidi was incredible responsive. This neighborhood is quiet and beautiful. We had no issues and would love to return one day!

30th birthday celebrations in Amsterdam

Four of us, two couples stayed at Heidi's private canal and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The decorations for my partners 30th were fantastic and Dan's birthday cake was delicious from Amsterdam Cupcake Company. Ben and Heidi were so friendly and hospitable and we couldnt have asked for kinder hosts. The location was brilliant on the canal. It was lovely to sit in the garden with a coffee on a morning. The facilities such as the coffee machine and fruit/supplies in the fridge were complimentary. The location is great to explore the culture and sights of Amsterdam! Beds were comfortable and it was nice to hear the church bells. The canal setting is peaceful and the accomodation was clean and homely. It had everything you would need. The only thing I would change is the slight gap on the sliding door in bathroom but that is minor. Thank you to Heidi and Ben and also the communication was brilliant if we ever needed them for anything. We would recommend and stay again.

Great location, mediocre quality

This property is overpriced for what it offers, but it is in a great location. I requested an independent experience, as advertised by VRBO, but the check-in was slow, and I realized the windows had no lock (the house is on a low floor). Heidi's partner, Mason, was really unpleasant during the initial interaction on the first day, entering the house multiple times and complaining with me only because I had placed a ruler from the bedroom to the windows to block them, for security purposes. He mentioned that no modifications were allowed, though it was simply moving an object from one part of the room to another. For this price, one would expect to feel welcomed, yet the initial interaction was just unpleasant. Heidi's partner was able to solve the problem of the locks, though. I did not see the hosts for the remainder of the stay, and that was the best part of my experience.

Heidi's Heart Is In It

The apt. was just as described, and the location is perfect. We have stayed in countless vacation rentals for years. What defines a place is when an owner really cares, as Heidi does. She hosted with unlimited treats and was genuinely concerned about our comfort. - We recommend this place for comfort and convenience!
