A lovely loft with good space and close to the canal. 5 minutes walk to a restaurant district, which we needed for a late dinner one night. The owner is close by so some comfort in times of need. Very helpful.

Had a lovely 3 night stay with friends, the place is as advertised, clean & in a quiet neighbourhood. The location is perfect if you want to be out of the busy areas. Martijn’s communication was great & nothing was too much trouble!

Apartment by canal
The location was in a nice neighborhood, by a canal & within walking distance to several sites, like the Anne Frank House. Apartment was clean & bedding was comfortable. There’s lots of stairs, as noted, & they are extremely steep, spiraling & narrow making it difficult with luggage to get to third floor. The owner did help with luggage.

5 nights in Amsterdam
Property was lovely. Had everything you need for A short stay, comfy beds and plenty of room. Some thoughtful touches like having a library and keeping the guide books others have left was really helpful. Location was good for us. Not right in the centre but public transport is so good it was easy to get around. Apartment is not suitable for those with mobility issues due to steep stairs and no lift but we managed fine and we’re not exactly gazelles.

Steile Treppe
Eine ruhig gelegene Wohnung im 4. Stock eines Hauses im Amsterdamer Viertel Westerend. Zu Fuß ins lebendige Zentrum mit vielen Lokalen und Geschäften ( z. B. Prinsengraacht) in 15 Minuten. Bus- und Straßenbahn 5 Minuten. Entfernung zum HBF 2 km oder 30 Minuten. Originelle Wohnung unterm Dach, man hat das Gefühl, hier hat ein Hobbybastler den Dachboden ausgebaut. Die angebene separate Toilette befindet sich außerhalb der Wohnung im Treppenhaus. Die Wohnung ist schon etwas abgewohnt und könnte mal eine Teilrenovierung vertragen. Sehr steile und enge Treppe, für gehbehinderte Besucher eher schwierig zu meistern. Sehr netter Vermieter, der die Koffer alle hochgeschleppt hat.

48 hours with niece packing in all that Amsterdam has to offer ! Property was a perfect base for exploring - close enough to all the sights but also situated in a lovely, quieter area. The accomodation was clean and well presented with a responsive host

Decepcionante
Fuimos a pasar 4 dias y la verdad es que no me lo esperaba para nada así de mal, para empezar las escaleras eran tan empinadas y estrechas que casi no se podia subir. Pero es que después de subir 3 pisos el apartamento estaba MUY SUCIO, todo lleno de povo de meses sin limpiar, la tostadora era imposible de meter pan de lo sucia y oxidada que estaba, el horno estaba lleno de grasa, las bombillas del comedor tenian tanto polvo por arriba que era horrible, aquello era un nido de ácaros, tuvimos que lavar olla y sartenes por que estaban pegadas, en la nevera media botella de agua abierta. Nunca habia estado en un apartamento tan dejado y sucio.

Great location and amenities
I highly recommend this location for a short visit in Amsterdam. The apartment was very clean and is walkable to local restaurants and bars, Amsterdam Centraal (about 35 min walk) the Van Gogh and Rijksmuseums, and more. Martijn was very friendly and available if we.needed him during our stay.

Great stay in quiet Jordaan
My husband and I enjoyed a great stay in a quiet neighborhood in Jordaan, not too far from the Anne Frank museum. Our apartment was spotless and the beds slept well. Our host was a great communicator and very accommodating with check-in and check-out.

Unterkunft ist gut für ein verlängertes Wochenende
Die Wohnung liegt nahe am Zentrum, zu Fuß ist alles gut zu erreichen. Sehr ruhige Lage am Wasser. Das Treppenhaus ist typisch für Amsterdam steil und eng! Die Wohnung sollte vielleicht mal ein bisschen rundüberneuert werden, ansonsten passt das für ein verlängertes Wochenende. Der Check-In klappte hervorragend, der Vermieter ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit!

Appartement parfait pour un séjour à Amsterdam
Cet appartement très propre et calme se trouve près du centre d'Amsterdam. Plusieurs commerces desservent le secteur, autant à pied qu'en vélo. Merci à Martijn qui fut un hôte accueillant et très serviable. Il nous a aidé à monter et descendre nos valises, ce que nous avons grandement apprécié.

Great location, helpful host
Exactly what we needed. Clean, comfortable, good beds. Location made for a nice walk (or short tram ride) to everything we wanted to see. Martijn was a great host. We especially appreciated him allowing an early drop-off of bags and then taking our VERY heavy bags up the stairs for us before we returned. Would definitely stay there again.

Great sleep and go VRBO
This is a very clean and pristine little apartment. The host lives right below, so that makes the check-in process easy. The beds are very comfortable and bigger than I thought they would be- one room has a king and the other seems like a queen. There is one full bathroom with a tub and separate shower and one 1/2 bath in the hall by the entrance door. This was very workable in our group of 4 (2 couples). The kitchen had coffee available and a little area with seating but it is really not for cooking at home if that is what you are looking for. It was not a big deal to us because we were out everyday and only came home to sleep and shower. I will say the stairs are serious business. They are steep and plentiful (54 in all). Now maybe 54 sounds easy, but lugging suitcases (thankfully the host brought ours up) and the actual boards being so narrow and spiral in a way, it was tough. Be aware. You will need a breather after coming up and check your heart rate coming down because they are steep. The apartment is quite a ways out from the heart of the city and the canals make for a bit of a walk to get around, but the busses and trains help. All in all, it was a great stay. The place was spotless and we loved that!

Perfect stay
We had a great time at Martijn‘s apartment. It is spacious and was completely sufficient for our needs. The location is very central, basically everything (especially the city center) is in walking distance. Martijn is super friendly and always replied shortly. I would definitely book again. Thanks again!

Perfect location and very comfortable
Our experience was wonderful. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go within about 20 min and the walk was beautiful with all the canals and the amazing neighborhoods. The apartment is spacious for 2 people and designed very well. The beds were soft and we loved having the windows open to have the cool breeze. The stairs are steep and short in depth but not a problem even with a big bag, just go slow. It's so charming overall and I would recommend this space for anyone visiting the area.

This is a great place for a short stay in Amsterdam. Walkable to all the major sites, with convenient nearby grocery stores and restaurants. Just note, this is an attic apartment with very steep steps and there is no stovetop.

Amsterdam stairs
Very nice, clean little apartment. The host was very helpful in bringing our heavy luggage up and down the stairs. There are 4 flights of narrow, steep, curving stairs, not for the elderly. You have a great view of the adjacent canal. We would stay again.
