Andre and Inez are excellent hosts! They responded promptly to questions and communicated clearly throughout the booking process, including providing easy-to-follow directions from the airport. Inez met me at the property with the keys, explained the house rules, described the neighborhood, answered my questions and provided great tips for local places to have breakfast, shop for groceries, etc.

The apartment itself was clean and bright, with huge windows, and comfortable beds. To me, an important feature of any rental is a good shower, and this one was excellent, with plenty of hot water and good pressure. Although there is not a full kitchen, there is a coffee maker, teapot, microwave and fridge, enough to make a quick breakfast or snack during the day.

The location is also terrific, on a quiet street in a residential neighborhood, but within easy walking distance of a grocery and several restaurants. My daughter and I especially enjoyed L'Affice, a small corner bar with a friendly, local clientele. We were also within walking distance or a quick tram ride of many of the major Amsterdam attractions, including Vondelpark, the Museum District, Dam Square and the "ring."

Overall, this apartment has everything I look for in a good booking -- great hosts, a clean and comfortable space and perfect location, at a reasonable price. Highly recommended!
