Perfect place to stay in Jordaan
We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay in this lovely bright and spotlessly clean apartment. It had everything we needed only wish our stay could have been longer! We felt that Jordaan is the best part of Amsterdam with everything on your doorstep. We will be back, thank you Cido and Rob.

Perfect spot for a quiet stay in Amsterdam
Our stay in this lovely apartment overlooking the Prinsengracht canal was part of what made our visit to Amsterdam so wonderful. The apartment is on a quiet street and just a short walk away from public transportation, so it was easy to reach the museums and neighborhoods we wanted to visit. There are many good restaurants close by as well as several markets for food shopping. Everything was as described in the listing -- the apartment is airy and comfortable. Cido was very responsive to our questions both before and during our stay. Great place to stay!

Excellent apartment and location. The property manager got confused about dates several times and also double-booked our first 2 days stay in Amsterdam. Thus we had to book a hotel for the first 2 days. Lastly, the manager got confused about emails from which she determined we wanted to check out 2 days early. We never understood why she concluded that and we had to assure her that our plans had not changed. It was odd to say the least.

Host profile image
We are a couple loves traveling and always trying to rent an apartments during our trips just to feel as we are living in that country. First thing we do is trying to find a local markets ,do shopping and cooking at our new home.So when we have the second apartment in the same building we decided to give this opportunity to our guests in the best part of Amsterdam.So our guests are being also our neighbors.It became a hobby for us while I am working as a dentist and my husband works as an engineer.

Why they chose this property

We live also in the same building so we decided that 2 apartment is too much for us and began to rent it to our guests since 2010

What makes this property unique

This is the most popular area called Jordaan with many small cafes and restaurants.During the day it is always alive with street musicians,boats or somedays with local markets .At nights it is so peaceful and safe and you hardly hear trafic although the apartment is located centrum centrum. It is 2 minutes walking distance to Anna frank's house and 20 minutes to the museums. There are many uniek shops around and 2 parks .Train station is 10 minutes walking distance. So you dont need any public transport. The view from the apartment is delightful with boat houses and the view of Norden church. All the day you can watch passing of boats on the prinsencanal.My favourite ritual is going to saturday market just across the house to buy weekly fresh flowers and fish to cook for weekend.We are sure you will also enjoy beeing here as we are enjoying since 12 years.
