Perfect stay in Amsterdam

This apartment is in the lower level of a lovely historic canal home. The owner lives upstairs and was immediately responsive for any questions we had. It was very clean, quiet and the bed was very comfortable. The neighborhood is nice and felt safe. It's within walking distance of restaurants, shops, museums, etc. There is a train stop within a block of the apartment - we took the train to and from the airport with 1 easy transfer and a 5 minute walk. We would stay here again and recommend it to our friends.

Il miglio appartamento affittato ad Amsterdam

L’appartamento è stupendo, situato nelle classiche palazzine caratteristiche di Amsterdam, cn vista direttamente sul canale e con un giardino privato meraviglioso. La proprietaria è disponibile e gentilissima, il posto è strategico, in pieno centro, vicino a tutto quello che può servire. Tornerò di sicuro perché mi sono proprio innamorata. E

Excellent!

Elizabeth’s apartment was perfect for our week in Amsterdam. The check in was easy - we were met by Elizabeth who explained the apartment’s facilities. She was a very warm & informative host. The heating lead very efficient & having a washing machine after traveling for 4 weeks was great. We found the bed to be very comfortable. The is slightly below street level with only 1 step - making it very easy to get luggage in & out.

A warm, comfortable home away from home

We had a wonderful time. After a day of touring, we walked into the apartment with an "Aaahhhh". Great location. Comfortable apartment. (The bed was incredibly comfortable.) Beautiful relaxing garden. Quiet and safe street on a canal. Walk to museums, restaurants, and tram. Liesbeth couldn't be nicer. We would stay there again.

Cute little apartment

This is an unpretentious little apartment but has most all of what one needs for a satisfying stay. It’s a short walk to restaurants and shops but it is 1 1/2 miles to train and bus station. It is below street level so passers-by have a clear view of the place, so curtains need be drawn for privacy. Hostess was wonderful and willing to assist with any needs.

Canal house stay

This house on the canal was just perfect for me to settle in for my 10 day stay in Amsterdam. It had everything I needed to make my stay comfortable. The lovely garden was a nice place to relax and watching the boats in the canal was fun. The host was friendly and I would love to come again.

Perfect location and comfortable apartment

We are glad we stayed at this property. The host was fantastic, the check in and out process and communications were top notch. We loved the location, we were so central to everything and enjoyed a very local feel. We took advantage of walking but the metro and trams are super close by giving you access to pretty much anything you want to do. We cooked dinner one night and the kitchen was sufficiently stocked with tools. We used the laundry which was great. When we are back to Amsterdam we would like to stay here again. Thank you. P.S. because its a first basement floor, you might want to bring slippers because floors are cold, which is expected, you are on the canal, and in damp cooler weather it is totally expected. We came in February.

Heavenly sleep

This warm cozy apartment is really well located. Walking distance to historic bridges, museums, markets and restaurants. The hostess is very helpful and recommended a great place to eat pickled herrings. Try it, it's good. There is also a great kitchen ware shops nearby with quality kitchen gadget. We are foodie people so found it very interesting. Although we could not use the courtyard, (because it was a cold winter) it was lovely to have a wall of glass to look out of. The bed was supper comfy with down doonas (duvet) and good pillows that made for the most heavenly sleep. Amsterdam is expensive, but this little apartment was perfect.

Happy with my choice

Liesbeth was a wonderful host, always available for advice and answers to questions. The apartment is comfortable and clean, and its location is perfect for walking to the museums and catching public transportation. Lots of places to eat in the neighborhood and grocery stores close by. Had I visited in the summer I am sure I’d have enjoyed the garden.

Just perfect for two

I received a friendly greeting from Liesbeth when I arrived and she explained the apartment and answered a few questions that I had. The apartment is close to stores, restaurants, tourist attractions and public transit. In fact, the location was so perfect for us that we walked everywhere. There is a nice view from the front window of the canal. The apartment is cozy and well equipped. Added bonus was the clothes washer and drying rack. This place did not disappoint.
