Verlängertes Wochenende in Amsterdam
Pros:

Die Wohnungs Verwalterin war super lieb und sehr hilfsbereit. Sie war sofort zur Stelle wenn man fragen hatte.
Die Lage ist ruhig und die öffentlichen Verkehrsmittel sind schnell zu erreichen.
Die Wohnung ist komplett ausgestattet und sehr sauber.
In beiden Schlafzimmer stehen Ventilatoren zur Verfügung.
Wir würden auf jeden Fall noch mal wiederkommen !!!

Cons:

Wir waren im Herbst vor Ort, bei angenehmen Temperaturen. Da die Wohnung über zwei Ebenen geht (ein Schlafzimmer ist in der Dachspitze) und keine Klimaanlage vorhanden ist, glauben wir das es im Hochsommer dort oben unerträglich warm wird. Man hat im Wohnzimmer eine große Fensterfront mit schöner Aussicht, aber leider fehlen dort Sonnenrollos.
Was bei einem längeren Aufenthalt auch zum Problem werden könnte, sind die nicht vorhandenen Kleiderschränke.
Die Lichtschalter waren teilweise sehr lustig.
Machte man z.b in einem Schlafzimmer das Licht aus, ging es in der Küche an 😄

Perfect

Magnificent with cosy surroundings
Pros:

I loved the cosiness of the apartment and the neighbourhood. THe host helped us with everything, provided us with tips and also had bikes for rent! We could not have done a better choice.

Cons:

Maybe as it was not so close to the city centre as expected - thankfully we had a nice weather and walked to the ferry station everyday. THe nice neighbourhood was nice to walk in
